16 EHS Environment, Health and Safety

16.1 Structure Changes in the IMG for EH&S

Use
As of SAP R/3 Enterprise PLM Extension 2.00 (EA_APPL 200), the structure of the Implementation
Guide (IMG) for the SAP component Environment, Health and Safety (EH&S) has changed. To
transfer these changes to the project IMG, you must generate a new project IMG.
The new IMG structure makes it easier to implement EH&S because all IMG activities that affect all
EH&S components are now grouped under the Basic Data and Tools node. The IMG structure now
matches the EH&S menu. See Menu (Changed).
The following changes were made:
o The Basic Data and Tools node is new. Under this node, you make the settings for the following
EH&S areas:
- EH&S Native Language Support
- Environment parameters
- User exits and user exit parameters
- Specification management
- Specification information system
- Report definition
- Phrase management
- Import and export
- Application Link Enabling (ALE)
- ArchiveLink
- Workflow
- Service administration
- EH&S Expert
- EH&S-QM interface
- Authorization management
o The Hazardous Substance Management node is new. Under this node, you make the settings for
the SARA reports. See SARA Reports (New).
o The IMG activities that are now under the Basic Data and Tools node were removed from the
existing nodes, particularly from the Product Safety node.

Effects on Existing Data

The changes to the structure of the IMG have no effect on your existing Customizing data.

______________________________________________________________
SAP AG 1
 SAP System
______________________________________________________________

Effects on System Administration

Basic Data and Tools is the prerequisite for being able to use the other EH&S components. This means,
for example, that you must process Customizing for Basic Data and Tools before you implement other
EH&S components, regardless of which EH&S components you want to use.

16.2 Menu (Changed)

Use
As of SAP R/3 Enterprise PLM Extension 2.00 (EA_APPL 200), the menu for the SAP component
Environment, Health and Safety (EH&S) has a new structure. This makes navigation easier:
o The Basic Data and Tools node contains the menu options that are required in all EH&S
components. These menu options were removed from the nodes of the other EH&S components to
reduce the size of the menus.
o The menu structure and the names of the menu options have been consolidated and standardized
across the whole of the EH&S menu.
The EH&S documentation and the Implementation Guide have been adapted to match the new menu
structure. See Changes to the IMG Structure.

specification data; they offer better performance and improved interfaces in comparison to the previous
API function modules:
o C1F5_SPECIFICATIONS_READ (Read Specification Data)
o C1F5_SPECIFICATIONS_MODIFY (Create or Change Specification Data)
o C1F5_SPECIFICATIONS_DELETE (Delete Specification Data)
These replace the following existing API function modules in the function group C1F2:
o C1F2_SUBSTANCES_CREATE
o C1F2_SUBSTANCES_DELETE

______________________________________________________________
SAP AG 2

As of SAP R/3 Enterprise PLM Extension 2.00 (EA_APPL 200), examples of the user exits with
which you can determine and check the notification status of specifications are no longer supplied. You
can set up this determination and check function much more easily using sets of rules for the EH&S
Expert. For more information on how you define sets of rules and secondary data such as the notification
status with the EH&S Expert, see the SAP Library for the Basic Data and Tools component under
EH&S Expert.

Effects on Customizing

______________________________________________________________
SAP AG 3
 SAP System
______________________________________________________________

You define user exits in Customizing for Basic Data and Tools under Manage User Exits. There you
also set up secondary data determination with the EH&S Expert. For more information on setting up the
EH&S Expert, see the IMG section EH&S Expert in the Implementation Guide (IMG) for Basic Data
and Tools.

16.3.1.5 Table-Based Value Assignment (New)

Use
As of SAP R/3 Enterprise PLM Extension 2.00 (EA_APPL 200), you can also enter data in table
form in the value assignment types of the category Property. This makes it much easier to enter data; for
example, you can enter a number of value assignment instances simultaneously using the table.

Effects on Customizing
In the standard system, table-based value assignment is available for all value assignment types of the
category Property. To be able to use table-based value assignment, you must make the necessary entries
under Set Up Table-Based Value Assignment for all value assignment types of the category Property.
Using a Business Add-In (BAdI), you can influence the behavior of the screens for table-based value
assignment (see BAdI: Enhancement of Table-Based Value Assignment).
In the application, with table-based value assignment you can choose between value assignment using the
table or value assignment using the tab pages. If you want to enter value assignment data using only the
tab pages as before, you must enter the function module C107TS_ENTRY in the Scr. Fct. (Entry
Function for Screen) field in the IMG activity Specify Value Assignment Types for the respective value
assignment types of the category Property.

o You can extend the property tree for dangerous goods classifications to include properties that are
then taken into account by filling.
o You can use priorities to specify which value assignment instance of a value assignment type is
filled. Only one instance can be specified for dangerous goods classifications; for UN-listed
substances only one per regulation.
o You can fill up to 15 user-defined dangerous goods texts per regulation - even with different profiles
- and link them to output conditions.

Effects on Customizing
You set up the filling of multiple component materials in Customizing for Dangerous Goods
Management under BAdI: Filter Specifications for Filling.
You specify priorities for value assignment instances under Specify Priorities.
You specify the profiles for user-defined dangerous goods texts under Specify Profiles for User-Defined
Dangerous Goods Texts.

16.6.3 Structure Changes in the IMG for Dangerous Goods Management

Use
As of SAP R/3 Enterprise PLM Extension 2.00 (EA_APPL 200), the structure was changed in the
Implementation Guide (IMG) for Dangerous Goods Management.
The following IMG activities are new:
o Basic Data and Master Data -> Common Settings:
Specify Collective Mode-of-Transport Categories
o Basic Data and Master Data -> Master Data:
Specify Categories of Package
Specify Tab Pages in Dangerous Goods Master

______________________________________________________________

In the Basic Settings section, the IMG activity Specify Environment Parameters was deleted. You
now edit the environment parameters directly in Customizing for Basic Data and Tools under Specify
Environment Parameters.
The IMG activity Specify Fields for Template and One-Time Material Processing was moved from the
Dangerous Goods Checks and Dangerous Goods Documents/EDI -> Common Settings section
to the Template and One-Time Material Processing section.

16.6.4 Collective and Base Mode-of-Transport Categories (New)

Use
As of SAP R/3 Enterprise PLM Extension 2.00 (EA_APPL 200), Dangerous Goods Management
has been enhanced to cover the concepts of collective mode-of-transport categories and base
mode-of-transport categories.
o Collective Mode-of-Transport Categories
The previous concept based on the collective mode-of-transport category 99 (All mode-of-transport
categories) was extended so that you can specify other collective mode-of-transport categories in
any combinations. Note that the dangerous goods regulations you define using collective
mode-of-transport categories must not contain any overlaps with respect to the combination of
validity area and mode-of-transport category (see Distinction Check).

______________________________________________________________
SAP AG 14
 SAP System
______________________________________________________________

o Base Mode-of-Transport Categories

The concept of base mode-of-transport categories allows you to create your own mode-of-transport
categories. You then assign these to predefined base mode-of-transport categories, which are
hard-coded in the system. Check that a base mode-of-transport category is assigned to all
mode-of-transport categories.
o Distinction Check
When new dangerous goods regulations are created, the system checks that the regulations do not
overlap with respect to the combination of validity area and mode-of-transport category
(distinction).

Effects on Existing Data

o The collective mode-of-transport category 99 (All mode-of-transport categories) is still delivered.
o You must assign existing mode-of-transport categories to a base mode-of-transport category.
o You can let the system check the distinction of existing dangerous goods regulations with the report
program DGP_REG_DEFINITION_CHECK.

Effects on Customizing
You assign the mode-of-transport categories to the base mode-of-transport categories in the IMG activity
Specify Mode-of-Transport Category.
You define collective mode-of-transport categories in the IMG activity Specify Collective
Mode-of-Transport Categories.

16.6.5 EH&S Expert Explanation Component (New)

Use
As of SAP R/3 Enterprise PLM Extension 2.00 (EA_APPL 200), the EH&S Expert was enhanced as
follows:
o Explanation component
The syntax for creating sets of rules was enhanced to include language elements with which you can
display in table form how the results were achieved. If you run sets of rules without these
explanation definitions, the system generates an explanation that shows the initial state and the final
state of the data. You can view the explanation directly following a run of a set of rules or save it
with the specification. In this case, the explanation is saved as a user-defined text in its own value
assignment type; you can then call the explanation from the specification workbench hit list at any
time.
o Inheritance and specification status
The EH&S Expert sets of rules can also be applied to inheritance relationships in specification
management and to the specification status.

Effects on Customizing
You make the necessary settings in the IMG activity Extend Entry in Secondary Data Determination.

16.7 EHS-WA Waste Management

16.7.1 Structure Changes in the IMG for Waste Management

Use
As of SAP R/3 Enterprise PLM Extension 2.00 (EA_APPL 200) the structure of the Waste
Management Implementation Guide (IMG) has changed. You have to generate the project IMGs again
in order to copy these changes to them.
Deleted IMG Activities
The IMG node Reporting and the IMG activity Create Report Tree that it contained have been deleted
because SAP no longer supports report trees. You can now find report programs from the report tree in
the Waste Management menu.
The IMG activities Specify Application Functions and Specify Functions have been grouped together
in the IMG activity Specify Functions. The IMG activity Specify Application Functions has been
deleted (see Disposal Processing Functions (Enhanced)).
New IMG Activities
Due to the Environment, Health and Safety (EH&S) component's IMG being restructured, (see
Structure Changes in the IMG for EH&S) the IMG activity Set Specification Management for Waste
Management has been divided into the following IMG activities:
o Configure Basic Data and Tools for Waste Management
o Configure Product Safety for Waste Management
Moved IMG Activities
The IMG activities Specify Environment Parameters and Manage User Exits are now in
Customizing for Basic Data and Tools under Basic Settings (see Structure Changes in the IMG for
EH&S).

16.7.2 EHS-WA-PRO Disposal Processing

16.7.2.1 Disposal Processing Functions (Enhanced)

Use
As of SAP R/3 Enterprise PLM Extension 2.00 (EA_APPL 200) the interfaces of the functions for
disposal processing are uniform. This enables you to use a function in the application toolbar and
function list without having to program different interfaces. From now on, the functions are uniformly
described as functions and not functions and application functions.
The functions supplied with the standard system were enhanced as follows:
o The function Create Purchase Order (function module

______________________________________________________________
SAP AG 16
 SAP System
______________________________________________________________

EHSWA_141_WASTEMVT_CRT_MM_PO) was enhanced as follows:

- When you execute a purchase order for several entry documents with different vendors or
outline agreements, the system executes several purchase orders, grouping together in a
purchase order the data from the entry documents that contain the same waste and vendors and
use the same outline agreement item.
- If you execute a purchase order for several entry documents, but some of these entry
documents do not fulfill the requirements for the purchase order, the system executes the
purchase order for those entry documents that fulfill the requirements and groups together the
data from these entry documents as described above.
- You can now also create a purchase order without a contract, or a purchase order with a
contract that has not been released. In both cases, the system issues a warning.
For more information, see the SAP Library for the Waste Management component under
Purchase Order.
o Instead of the Clear function, which you use to clear the waste and simultaneously create a purchase
order for the disposal, there are now two functions available:
- You use the new function Clear (function module EHSWA_141_WASTEMVT_OUT_IM) to
clear the waste quantity without creating a purchase order.
- You use the new function Order & Clear (function module
EHSWA_141_WASTEMVT_OUT_IM_PO) to clear the waste quantity and create a purchase
order for the disposal at the same time.
o Instead of the Cancel Material Document function, there are now two functions available:
- You use the new function Cancel Clear (function module
EHSWA_141_WASTEMVT_CAN_IM_OUT) to reverse the clearing of an entry document.
The waste quantity of the entry document is then posted again afterwards.
- You use the new function Cancel Post (function module
EHSWA_141_WASTEMVT_CAN_IM_IN) to reverse the posting of an entry document. The
waste quantity of the entry document is not posted afterwards.
o The function Create Document with Approval has been replaced by the new function Create
Disposal Document (function module EHSWA_143WM_DISPDOC_CREATE). With this
function, you can create a disposal document from disposal processing irrespective of whether a
waste approval is required for the disposal document or not (see Creating and Printing Disposal
Documents (Enhanced)).
o With the new function Close Entry Document (function module
EHSWA_162_WAFUNC_CLOSE) you set the system and user status of an entry document to
Closed.
o You use the new authorization object C_EHSW_EAF (Waste Management - disposal
processing function) to control which functions the system offers in disposal processing
depending on the entry document category.

Effects on Existing Data

The functions supplied with the standard system have been adjusted to match the new interface. If you
have used these functions, you have to exchange them for the new versions. If you have programmed
your own functions, you have to adapt their interfaces.

______________________________________________________________
SAP AG 17
 SAP System
______________________________________________________________

Effects on Customizing
You no longer define the functions for disposal processing in the separate IMG activities Specify
Application Functions and Specify Functions in Customizing for Waste Management, but now
under Specify Functions.

16.7.2.2 Creating and Printing Disposal Documents (Enhanced)

Use
As of SAP R/3 Enterprise PLM Extension 2.00 (EA_APPL 200) the following changed and new
functions are available to simplify the creation and printing of disposal documents:
o The new function module EHSWA_280_PARAMETER_GET determines the data necessary for
printing disposal documents. It determines the data from the symbols, that the report template of the
disposal document contains.
This function module can be used for all disposal document types and means that you no longer
require separate printing modules for the individual disposal document types. If you set up a new
disposal document type, you only have to create the report template with the necessary symbols and
no longer need a separate function module for each disposal document type for determining data.
The field in which you can specify this print module for the disposal document types was deleted in
Customizing. The sample templates supplied with the system were adjusted to the new function
module.
The fields in which you could specify whether the authority-assigned number and the outgoing
quantity are output on the disposal documents of a disposal document type have also been deleted
from Customizing. If the report template contains a symbol for this data, the new printing module
determines this data automatically.
o You can use the new function modules EHSWA_209_CHECK and EHSWA_209_CHECK_BGS to
perform checks after the data has been entered for a disposal document of the disposal document
type (at PAI). These function modules replace the function module EHSWA_209_PAI.
o Using the new function module EHSWA_143WM_DISPDOC_CREATE you can create and print
disposal documents with and without a waste approval from disposal processing. The function
module determines from the Customizing settings whether a waste approval is required for the
disposal document type. The function module also takes other Customizing settings for the disposal
document type into account and performs the relevant checks before the disposal document is
created. For example, it checks that the disposal document does not contain more wastes or waste
codes than is permitted for the disposal document type. For more information, see the SAP Library
for the Waste Management component under Creation of a Disposal Document.
o Since the length of the authority-assigned number of a disposal document is frequently stipulated by
law, you can now specify the maximum possible length of this number for each disposal document
type in Customizing.
Furthermore, the new function module EHSWA_209_COMPL_WITH_RECAL is also available. This
function module sets the status Data Is Complete for selected disposal documents, and recalculates the
waste quantities from the disposal documents and enters them on the entry documents from which the
disposal documents were created.

______________________________________________________________
SAP AG 18
 SAP System
______________________________________________________________

Effects on Existing Data

To determine the data for printing disposal documents, the system uses the new function module
EHSWA_280_PARAMETER_GET. The system no longer supports other function modules.
To print disposal documents from disposal processing, the system uses the new function module
EHSWA_143WM_DISPDOC_CREATE. The function modules from the function group EHSWA_143
are no longer supported.

Effects on Customizing
If you want to use the new sample templates, you have to import them into your system. For more
information, see the Implementation Guide (IMG) for Waste Management under Configure Basic Data
and Tools for Waste Management.
The Create Document function is supplied with the standard system and you can use it to create
disposal documents from disposal processing. This function uses the new function module
EHSWA_143WM_DISPDOC_CREATE. If you want to use this function module in your own functions,
you have to set this up in the IMG activity Specify Functions, assign the function module to it, and assign
your own functions to the entry document categories in the IMG activity Specify Document Categories.
You define the maximum possible length of the authority-assigned number for disposal documents for
each disposal document type in the IMG activity Specify Disposal Document Types.
If you want to use the new function module EHSWA_209_COMPL_WITH_RECAL, you have to specify
it for a function for disposal documents under Specify Functions. To do this, you can, for example, use
the Data Complete function supplied with the standard system and assign the new function module
EHSWA_209_COMPL_WITH_RECAL to it, instead of the function module EHSWA_209_COMPL,
which is assigned to the function in the standard system.

16.7.2.3 Status of Entry Documents (Changed)

Use
As of SAP R/3 Enterprise PLM Extension 2.00 (EA_APPL 200) an enhanced user status profile as
well as user-defined system statuses and business transactions are available in disposal processing for
entry documents. Using the assignment of business transactions to the user statuses and to the functions
of disposal processing, you can now specify the status an entry document must have so that a function
may be executed, and the status the system sets for the entry document after the function has been
executed. Since the system now sets the user status automatically when you execute certain functions,
and because you can no longer set the user status manually, you can guarantee that entry documents are
only given the relevant user status if the appropriate function was actually executed. For example, an
entry document is only given the user status Posted if you have actually posted the waste quantity. For
more information, see the SAP Library for the Waste Management component under Setting Entry
Document Statuses.

Effects on Customizing
The status profile EHS_WMM1 (disposal processing 1) is supplied with the standard system as an
example of a user status profile for entry documents. It replaces the currently used status profile and
supports the functions of disposal processing. You tailor the status profile to your requirements or set

______________________________________________________________
SAP AG 19
 SAP System
______________________________________________________________

up new status profiles if required in Customizing for Waste Management under Check, Extend, Set
Status Profiles. You also assign the business transactions to the user statuses here.
You assign the business transactions to the functions under Specify Functions.
You assign the status profiles to the entry document categories under Specify Document Categories.

16.7.3 EHS-WA-DOC Disposal Documents

16.7.3.1 Creating and Printing Disposal Documents (Enhanced)

Use
As of SAP R/3 Enterprise PLM Extension 2.00 (EA_APPL 200) the following changed and new
functions are available to simplify the creation and printing of disposal documents:
o The new function module EHSWA_280_PARAMETER_GET determines the data necessary for

disposal document type, you only have to create the report template with the necessary symbols and
no longer need a separate function module for each disposal document type for determining data.
The field in which you can specify this print module for the disposal document types was deleted in
Customizing. The sample templates supplied with the system were adjusted to the new function
module.
The fields in which you could specify whether the authority-assigned number and the outgoing
quantity are output on the disposal documents of a disposal document type have also been deleted
from Customizing. If the report template contains a symbol for this data, the new printing module
determines this data automatically.
o You can use the new function modules EHSWA_209_CHECK and EHSWA_209_CHECK_BGS to
perform checks after the data has been entered for a disposal document of the disposal document
type (at PAI). These function modules replace the function module EHSWA_209_PAI.
o Using the new function module EHSWA_143WM_DISPDOC_CREATE you can create and print
disposal documents with and without a waste approval from disposal processing. The function
module determines from the Customizing settings whether a waste approval is required for the
disposal document type. The function module also takes other Customizing settings for the disposal
document type into account and performs the relevant checks before the disposal document is
created. For example, it checks that the disposal document does not contain more wastes or waste
codes than is permitted for the disposal document type. For more information, see the SAP Library
for the Waste Management component under Creation of a Disposal Document.
o Since the length of the authority-assigned number of a disposal document is frequently stipulated by
law, you can now specify the maximum possible length of this number for each disposal document
type in Customizing.
Furthermore, the new function module EHSWA_209_COMPL_WITH_RECAL is also available. This
function module sets the status Data Is Complete for selected disposal documents, and recalculates the
waste quantities from the disposal documents and enters them on the entry documents from which the

______________________________________________________________

disposal documents were created.

Effects on Existing Data

To determine the data for printing disposal documents, the system uses the new function module
EHSWA_280_PARAMETER_GET. The system no longer supports other function modules.
To print disposal documents from disposal processing, the system uses the new function module
EHSWA_143WM_DISPDOC_CREATE. The function modules from the function group EHSWA_143
are no longer supported.

Effects on Customizing
If you want to use the new sample templates, you have to import them into your system. For more
information, see the Implementation Guide (IMG) for Waste Management under Configure Basic Data
and Tools for Waste Management.
The Create Document function is supplied with the standard system and you can use it to create
disposal documents from disposal processing. This function uses the new function module
EHSWA_143WM_DISPDOC_CREATE. If you want to use this function module in your own functions,
you have to set this up in the IMG activity Specify Functions, assign the function module to it, and assign
your own functions to the entry document categories in the IMG activity Specify Document Categories.
You define the maximum possible length of the authority-assigned number for disposal documents for
each disposal document type in the IMG activity Specify Disposal Document Types.
If you want to use the new function module EHSWA_209_COMPL_WITH_RECAL, you have to specify
it for a function for disposal documents under Specify Functions. To do this, you can, for example, use
the Data Complete function supplied with the standard system and assign the new function module
EHSWA_209_COMPL_WITH_RECAL to it, instead of the function module EHSWA_209_COMPL,
which is assigned to the function in the standard system.

16.8 EHS-HEA Occupational Health

16.8.1 Costs (Deleted)

Use
As of SAP R/3 Enterprise PLM Extension 2.00 (EA_APPL 200), the functions for entering the costs
and duration of healthcare services are no longer included in the application. They have been removed
from all screens in which they were used, which include:
o Basic data for health surveillance protocols and examinations
o Medical service

o Building
You can print out integration objects on reports, for example.
The building is also integrated with the Measurement Management (EHS-IHS-MEM) component:
When you create a measurement project for a work area to which buildings are assigned, the building
marked as the main building is displayed in the basic data for the measurement project.

Effects on Customizing
If you want to use the integration object Building, you must edit the IMG activity Specify Buildings in
Customizing for Industrial Hygiene and Safety.

16.9.6.3 Overall Rating and Received Rating (New)

Use
As of SAP R/3 Enterprise PLM Extension 2.00 (EA_APPL 200), you can determine an overall
rating for a work area. This rating makes a statement about the risk potential of the work area as a whole,
that is, of all agents present in the work area.
You can also determine a received rating. It reflects the risk potential that results from the work areas
that lie one level below the work area in question.
The functions are implemented as Business Add-Ins (BAdIs) and can therefore be enhanced to fulfill
your requirements without the need for modifications.

Effects on Customizing
If you want to develop enhancements, you must process the following IMG activities in Customizing for
Industrial Hygiene and Safety:
o BAdI: Calculation of Overall Rating
o BAdI: Calculation of Received Rating

persons were injured (accidents).

You can also develop an enhancement to determine the indicator. For example, the system can assign the
indicator if certain criteria are fulfilled.

Effects on Customizing
If you want to develop an enhancement, you must process the Business Add-In (BAdI) Determination of
Reportable Event Indicator in Inc./Acc. Log Header in Customizing for Industrial Hygiene and Safety.

16.9.8.3 Cause Hierarchy (New)

Use
As of SAP R/3 Enterprise PLM Extension 2.00 (EA_APPL 200), you can assign causes to an event,
which you select from one or more cause hierarchies. You access the function by opening the
Investigation tab page in the respective incident/accident log entry.
A cause hierarchy contains different cause types (such as technical problems, human factors, and so on)
on which other cause types, causes, or other influencing factors are dependent in a hierarchical structure
with increasing degrees of detail. This structure allows you to perform a cause analysis that is systematic
and detailed, and elucidates the various influencing factors.
The cause hierarchy is integrated with the industrial hygiene and safety measure object. This means you
can navigate directly from the cause hierarchy to the safety measures screen and assign a safety measure
or corrective measure to a cause.

Effects on Customizing
You must build the cause hierarchies you want to use in your company in Customizing for Industrial
Hygiene and Safety in the IMG activity Build Cause Hierarchy.
