17. SUMMARY RECOMMENDATIONS
Background
REALTECH analyzed the SAP ERP system P01 from October 2013
till February 2014.
Summary
The main usage of P01 is proprietary developments. The XXX
module plays only a minor role. Paradoxically the amount of
distinct proprietary development is low compared with the
market.
Response time of SAP standard and HTTP are good, but
proprietary developments are slow and have a lot of long runners
and fluctuations.
Dumps are three times higher than market, due to many errors in
programming. XXX should take quality actions to reduce the
amount of dumps, especially before go-live with projects.
The REALTECH System Index of P01 as an indicator for the
technical fitness is 10. The main reason for the high value is the
high amount of dumps.
The RSI of the P01 is 10, due to the very high amount of dumps
Criteria Actual Ref. *
Average Response Time 1,067 1,000
Strong Fluctuations 37 15
Batch Outliers 6 3
Custom Code Usage 167 300
Abnormal Terminations 1,629 500
Unplanned Downtimes 1h 8h
Planned Uptime (SLA) 99,5% 99,5%
RSI 10 5
* Reference values are individually calculated based on the
measured systems usage patterns and challenges.
They reflect the market standard, not the optimum.

18. SUMMARY RECOMMENDATIONS
Performance (Response Times)
 Reschedule batch outside dialog time
 Optimize batch
 Optimize work processes
 Optimize most used and important prop. developments
 Improve sequential reading
 Archive to improve performance and stop fast growth of DB
 Move the Profitability Analysis (CO-PA) into SAP BW
Dumps / Quality Process
 Implement process to reduce dumps
 Check quality process of development
 Quality Issue - Reoccurring Transports
Focus points are performance and dumps / quality process

20. SUMMARY

21. ADVANTAGES OF USING RT RAS
• There are already several tools on the market (e.g. EarlyWatch/MaxAttention).
• REALTECH shows correlations – Analysis of relationships.
• Considering chronological sequences – no singular section (as EW).
• Market comparison – what is better / what is worse – Based on 4,200 measured systems.
• Recommendations for action – not for analysis but for specific help.
• Management presentations by REALTECH.
• Complete view on the SAP system – from hosting to support.
So, why should we use REALTECH Assessment Services instead of other tools
or services from SAP?

22. NEXT STEPS TO TRY RAS
• RT offers a RAS Lite version which shows you a fast analysis of your
SAP system and shows you the REALTECH System Index (RSI) which is
the comparison to 4,200 other SAP systems but no recommendations
but some hints from RT.
• RT offers RAS complete assessment which shows you the REALTECH
system index (RSI) which is the comparison to 4,200 other SAP systems
and offers recommendations with a management report from
REALTECH consulting services.
• Process – Transport with report is delivered by RT to be imported and
run for 6 weeks on the production system. Basis must run report/job
daily to generate a file.
