hi there....

The IMG (Implementation Guide for R/3 Customizing)

Lists all actions required for implementing the SAP System

Helps you to control and document the implementation

Please note that the paper version of the IMG is shorter than the online version. In the online system, additional information is provided.

The SIMG_ALL structure is the library that contains all sections for implementing the various components (for example, Materials Management, Sales & Distribution, Financial Accounting).

The Implementation Guide (IMG) is the tool which adjusts the SAP System to the requirements of a company. You use the implementation guide to structure and organize the implementation of the SAP System in your company.

Implementation Guide structure

The implementation guide is a hierarchical structure of the application areas in the component hierarchy. It contains all the work steps required for the implementation with documentation.

There are three implementation guide variants:

SAP Reference IMG

Project IMGs

Project view IMGs

The SAP Reference IMG

SAP delivers an Implementation Guide, the SAP Reference IMG, that contains the work steps for all applications as IMG activities in the SAP System.

See SAP Reference IMG.

Project IMGs

To reduce the complexity of the configuration process in the SAP Reference IMG, you generally create separate implementation projects. In the implementation projects, you choose only those functions that you need for the processes in your project. You generate separate project IMGs for each implementation project and for release updates.

See Project IMG.

Project view IMGs

You can generate views to structure your project activities by selecting attributes by specified criteria. For example, the mandatory activities view contains only those activities that are required.

See Customizing project views.

Using the implementation guide

You can use the IMG to:

Configure R/3 functions in your company in a quick, safe and cost-effective manner

Adapt standard functions to meet your company requirements

Manage, edit and analyze implementation or upgrade projects

Document and monitor implementation phases with a project management tool

Transfer configuration data automatically from the quality assurance system to the production system to ensure consistency

The implementation project team is led through all required Customizing settings and is given the necessary system configuration documentation for all required step

hi there...

follow the following steps to creater an implementation...

To create an implementation, proceed as follows:

1. ...

1. 1. In the SAP menu, choose ABAP Workbench ® Utilities ® Business Add-Ins (transaction SE19) or double-click the corresponding activity in the Implementation Guide (IMG).

2. 2. Enter a name for the implementation and then click the Create pushbutton.

3. 3. Enter the name of the add-in for which you want to create an implementation for in the dialog box that appears.

4. 4. Enter a short text describing your implementation on the following screen.

5. 5. Choose the Interface tab.

6. 6. Choose ABAP Code as the implementation type.

In addition to ABAP Code, there is also the Formula option. If you choose Formula, the content of a method is determined using the Formula Builder. For more information on this, refer to the section Implementing Methods Using the Formula Builder.

7. 7. Navigate to the Class Builder by double-clicking the method. You must first enter a package before the Class Builder is displayed.

8. 8. Insert the desired source code for the implementation between the method if_ex_businessaddin~method. and endmethod. statements that already exist.

In our particular example, you could enter the statement translate parameter to upper case.

9. 9. Save your entries and return to the Change Implementation screen.

10. 10. Choose Activate. You may now use this implementation when the application program is executed.
