In this lesson, you'll explore the process modeling content delivered through SAP Signavio Process Explorer and learn how to import this content into your organization’s workspace.
Process Modeling with Reference Content
SAP Signavio provides a comprehensive central repository for process reference content, including S/4HANA best practices, detailed model company process descriptions, and solution maps that clarify which solutions are needed to achieve specific business capabilities.
The Process Explorer organizes all this valuable reference material in an intuitive interface, offering multiple entry points for easy navigation and streamlined content discovery.
Additionally, Process Explorer features partner-created content tailored for specific industries and specialized use cases that may not be included in SAP’s standard offerings. This ensures organizations across industries can access both widely recognized and niche best practices.
A big advantage of Process Explorer is its integration with the Value Accelerator Library. This feature allows you to bring SAP process models directly into your workspace, where you can compare them against your organization’s current process performance—such as results from process mining using plug and gain analysis. Everything—reference content, best practices, and analytical tools—is unified for maximum efficiency and accessibility.
Exploring SAP Best Practices
In most SAP projects—whether driven by large-scale transformation or a focus on continuous improvement—best practices, solution maps, and capability maps become essential at various stages. For example, with a fit-to-standard approach, it can often be challenging to determine an appropriate benchmark. This is where best practices are invaluable, as is knowing where to find and how to apply them effectively within your project.
SAP Signavio Process Explorer serves as a centralized repository, providing access to best practice process models, model company content, capability maps, and solution maps. Now, let’s explore how to navigate within Process Explorer to identify and use a specific best practice process—such as the supplier invoicing scenario (J60).
