Collaboration Requirements

 

Description

 

The output is a description of the collaborative processes and functions to be accessed using the portal.

Compared to core business processes, collaborative processes and their functions are often used in an ad hoc manner. They might act as supporting sub-processes within business core processes, but usually they are not limited to a specific business process or business unit. Examples are

 

·         Virtual community areas (bulletin boards, team rooms)

·         Mail/calendar access

·         Carrying out quick polls

·         Managing and launching Web meetings

·         Carrying out real-time collaboration (for example, instant messaging)

 

In detail, the deliverable might include the following:

 

·         Specification of the collaborative processes/functions to be established in the portal

·         Specification of the required applications (SAP and 3rd-party)

·         Validation of the SAP product offering

 

 

The output might also include required configuration settings such as the following:

 

·         Templates for collaboration rooms

·         Settings within integrated applications (for example, Groupware or Mail Server)
