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 completed Digital Discovery Assessment is a comprehensive evaluation conducted during the planning stages of an SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition implementation. This assessment captures various critical aspects of the project to ensure a tailored and efficient approach. Two key elements captured in this assessment are 'Known integration requirements' and 'Business role requirements'. Understanding the integration requirements is essential for ensuring seamless connectivity and data flow between SAP S/4HANA Cloud and other systems. Identifying business role requirements is crucial for aligning the system's capabilities with the specific needs and responsibilities of different user groups within the organization. Both elements are pivotal for designing a solution that is both integrated and user-centric.

 You can complete the following activities in the Maintain Business Roles SAP Fiori app:

Assign business catalogs to a business role. Business catalogs are collections of SAP Fiori apps that are relevant for a specific business area or task. You can add one or more business catalogs to a business role to grant access to the corresponding apps1.

Maintain restrictions. Restrictions are rules that limit the access of a business role to certain data or functions based on predefined criteria, such as company code, plant, or sales organization. You can maintain restrictions for a business role in a new UI that provides an overview of the restriction types and values2.

You cannot complete the following activities in the Maintain Business Roles SAP Fiori app:

Maintain technical catalogs. Technical catalogs are collections of SAP Fiori apps that are grouped by technical criteria, such as application component or OData service. Technical catalogs are not assigned to business roles, but rather to business catalogs as dependencies3.

Assign PFCG profiles to a business role. PFCG profiles are authorization profiles that are created and maintained in the Profile Generator (PFCG) transaction in the SAP GUI. PFCG profiles are not assigned to business roles, but rather to business users as part of the user role assignment4. References = Maintain Business Roles; Maintain Business Roles and Business Users; Maintain Business Roles - New (Preview); Maintain Business Catalogs

The SAP Activate methodology outlines the phases for implementing SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition. One crucial phase is the 'Explore' phase. During this phase, consultants workclosely with the business to understand its processes and requirements through Fit-to-Standard workshops. These workshops are designed to identify the best fit of the standard SAP S/4HANA processes with the business's needs. It's a collaborative effort to explore the capabilities of SAP S/4HANA Cloud and configure the business processes accordingly. This phase is fundamental in ensuring that the solution is tailored to meet the specific needs of the business, setting the foundation for a successful implementation.

 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]
