SAP S/4HANA Cloud Business Workflows are designed to enhance and automate business processes within the organization. They serve multiple purposes:

To create complex, repeated work processes with iterative cycles:These workflows are designed to handle intricate processes that occur regularly within the business environment, allowing for automation and efficiency in tasks that require repetition and involve multiple steps or conditions.

To create cross-product workflow procedures:This capability allows for the integration of various SAP products and services into a cohesive workflow, ensuring smooth and interconnected operations across different aspects of the business. It enables workflows that span across different SAP applications and solutions, providing a unified approach to managing business processes.

To create business processes with a high number of people involved in a pre-defined sequence:SAP S/4HANA Cloud Business Workflows are capable of handling processes that involve many participants, orchestrating the sequence of tasks to be completed by different individuals or departments. This ensures that each step of the process is executed in the right order by the right person, enhancing collaboration and efficiency.

Sandbox system: This is an optional system that can be used to explore the SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition capabilities and features before the implementation project starts. It is not connected to the starter system or the test system and does not have any data migration or configuration tools. It can be refreshed on demand by the customer1.

Starter system: This is the first system that is provisioned for the customer after the contract is signed. It is used to perform the fit-to-standard workshops, where the customer validates the standard processes and identifies the gaps and requirements. It also serves as the configuration system, where the customer configures the business processes using the SAP Central Business Configuration tool. The starter system is connected to the test system and can transfer the configuration and master data to it2.

Test system: This is the second system that is provisioned for the customer after the starter system is configured. It is used to perform the integration testing, user acceptance testing, data migration, and cutover activities. It also serves as the production system, where the customer runs the live business processes after the go-live. The test system is connected to the starter system and can receive the configuration and master data from it3.

The systems that are not used to implement SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition for a customer are:

Trial system: This is a system that can be used to experience the SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition solution for a limited time. It is not connected to any other system and does not have any data migration or configuration tools. It is not part of the implementation project and does not require a contract4.

Development system: This is a system that can be used to develop custom applications or extensions using the SAP Business Technology Platform. It is not part of the SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition landscape and does not have any data migration or configuration tools. It requires a separate contract and license.

A business role is assigned to a business user to provide access to business tasks. A business role can contain one or more business catalogs, which are predefined by SAP and contain the actual authorizations that allow users to access the apps contained in the catalog. Each business catalog bundles authorizations for a specific business area. You can tailor the access according to the needs of the business and for compliance purposes usingrestrictions. References = Finding the Required Business Roles and Business Catalogs for a Solution Process, Defining Business Roles for Production, Business Roles and Catalogs

 Core Data Services (CDS) is a layer of SAP S/4HANA that provides a universal language to read and process data across different applications. CDS is based on SQL and extends it with domain-specific features and annotations. CDS views are reusable and can be consumed by various interfaces such as SAP Fiori, OData, or SQL. CDS views also enable the definition of semantic data models that expose the business logic and meaning of the underlying data sources. References = [SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition - Introductionto Core Data Services], [SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition - Core Data Services in SAP S/4HANA Cloud]

Indirect digital access occurs when humans, devices, or systems use the digital core indirectly through non-SAP intermediary software, such as a non-SAP front end, a custom-solution, or any other non-SAP application1. Indirect digital access is measured by the number of documents created, updated, or deleted in the SAP system as a result of the indirect use2. Examples of indirect digital access include:

A Defect document created through an industry application: This is an example of indirect digital access because the industry application is a non-SAP software that triggers the creation of a document in the SAP system.

A Time Sheet Record from a 3rd party application: This is also an example of indirect digital access because the 3rd party application is a non-SAP software that triggers the creation of a document in the SAP system.

An unattended bot in SAP Build Process Automation: This is not an example of indirect digital access because the bot is using SAP software to access the SAP system directly, not through a non-SAP intermediary software.

A Production Order created through a non-SAP front-end: This is not an example of indirect digital access because the production order is not a document type that is counted for indirect digital access. The document types that are counted are: Sales Order, Invoice, Purchase Order, Service and Maintenance Document, Manufacturing Document, Quality Management Document, Time Sheet, Financial Document, and Material Document2. References = Digital Access | SAP Help Portal, SAP Digital Access / SAP Digital Access Adoption Program (DAAP) Extension through December 31, 2021

 Before you can migrate data for a specific object, you need to ensure that the following tasks are completed:

Predecessor objects have been migrated: Some migration objects depend on other migration objects that need to be migrated first. For example, before you can migrate sales orders, you need to migrate customers, products, and pricing conditions. You can check the dependencies of migration objects in the Migration Cockpit or in the Migration Object Modeler12.

Permission to migrate the data has been assigned: In addition to having permission to access the Migrate Your Data app, you need permission to migrate each type of data. This is because the Migration Cockpit tool uses the same APIs and technical checks that would be done if you were to create a new data value through the respective application. For example, if you need to create a new bank record in your system, you would use the application, Manage Banks - Master Data. The app would present you with several fields capturing information about the new bank to create the record in your system. Now if you need to create 1,000 banks, it wouldn’t be feasible to create each through the Manage Banks - Master Data app one-by-one. Therefore, you need to have the permission to use the Manage Banks - Master Data app in order to migrate bank data using the Migration Cockpit3.

The other tasks are not mandatory before you can migrate data for a specific object. You can select different migration methods for different objects, depending on your source system and data format. You can also have multiple migration projects in progress at the same time, as long as they do not contain the same migration objects4. References = Migration Object Modeler, Migrating Data with the SAP S/4HANA Migration Cockpit, SAP S/4 HANA Data Migration Cockpit: Migrate Your Data App Guide, Migrating Data to SAP S/4HANA Cloud, Public Edition

During the Fit-to-Standard workshops, an implementation consultant supports customer experts by doing the following:

Demonstrate SAP Best Practice business processes in the starter system. The consultant shows the customer experts how the standard processes work in SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition and how they fit their business needs1.

Highlight areas that require configuration or customization decisions. The consultant identifies and documents the gaps between the standard processes and the customer requirements, and proposes solutions that are aligned with the cloud mindset1.

The other options are not the correct ways to support customer experts during the Fit-to-Standard workshops. Determining set up instructions for customer-driven integrations is done in the integration phase, after the Fit-to-Standard workshops are completed2. Conducting end-user training on active scope items is done in the deploy phase, before the go-live of the system3. References = Conducting Fit-to-Standard Workshops - SAP Learning, SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition - Integration, Deploying SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition.

When you build an integration scenario using the SAP Fiori Communication Management apps in SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition, you must create a communication system and a communication arrangement. A communication system represents the communication partner within a communication, such as the system that calls or provides services. A communication arrangement defines the settings for a specific communication scenario, such as the authentication method, the communication user, and the service URL. You can use the Communication Systems app and the Communication Arrangements app to create and manage these objects in the SAP Fiori launchpad. References = Setting up Communication Management - SAP Learning, Setting up SAP Best Practices Integrations - SAP Learning, Setting Up Integrations in SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

 Tools that enable non-developers to create low/no-code extensions are designed to be user-friendly, requiring minimal to no programming knowledge, allowing business users to tailor applications to their specific needs. Among these tools, SAP Fiori extensibility apps and SAP Build stand out:

SAP Fiori extensibility apps:These apps allow users to adapt the user interface and behavior of standard SAP Fiori apps without writing code. Users can personalize forms, fields, and workflows directly within the SAP Fiori environment, making it possible to adjust applications to meet specific business requirements.

SAP Build:SAP Build is a suite of tools designed to enable users to create and enhance applications, automate processes, and design business sites with low-code or no-code approaches. It provides a user-friendly interface where users can drag and drop components, set up workflows, and integrate data without needing deep technical expertise.

When you are recording actions for a custom process step in a test automate, you press the “Read” button on the recording panel in the following situations:

To capture a value in a text field that should be stored as a variable. This allows you to reuse the value in other steps or test cases, or to compare it with an expected value1.

To capture text in a message screen that can be used for data binding later. This allows you to extract data from the message screen and use it as an input for another step or test case2.

You do not press the “Read” button to capture an error message or a static label on the screen, as these are not values that need to be stored or used later. Instead, you can use the “Check” button to verify that the error message or the label is displayed as expected3. References = Using the Test Automation Tool for Automated Testing - SAP Learning, How to get started with the Test Automation Tool for SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition, SAP S/4HANA Cloud Test Automation Tool- FAQs Blog Series #1.
