1) Your request will be added to the list of requests on this Web site.
The annual deadline is 1 December. Any request received after that date
will be added to the next year’s requests.
2) By the 1st February, SAP Product Management from the Public Sector
IBU, SAP AG will add input and feedback on the requests. This would include
adding SAP comments; removing redundancy; establishing whether requests
are feasible, not feasible or currently under development. For this to
happen SAP will need to contact and get feedback from the people given
as the contacts for the relevant requests from your institution. If the
request is classified as feasible, an estimation of the delivery time if
the item received the most votes will be given.
3) By mid February, the HERUG executive and SAP representatives will
create a votable list and decide on the requests that will be refined at
workshops at the annual HERUG meeting. The following items will be removed
from the votable list:
-
Items for which no pilot site could be found
-
Items which are seen by SAP as not feasible or currently under development
-
Items that SAP and your institutional contacts were unable to clarify.
4) Prior to the HERUG meeting, SAP representatives will send out
questionnaires to HERUG participants, to guide the workshops.
5) On the first day of the annual HERUG meeting, we hope to run workshops
on the relevant development requests. The current suggestion is to run
3 parallel sessions for Finance, HR/Payroll and Student. SAP representatives
will talk to the remaining items on the list on the final day of the HERUG
meeting. This is to assist SAP and HER members clarify items that are on
the votable list.
6) The progress on the previous year’s development requests will also
be reported on at each annual HERUG meeting.
7) Voting will occur once a year at this Web site. This will normally
be one month after the annual HERUG meeting. Each institution will receive
votes which they can distribute amongst the votable requests as they see
fit.
