Trading Execution Workbench (TEW)

Use
In Global Trade Management, you often need to process several different kinds of transactions at the same time. The Trading
Execution Workbench (TEW) provides a central cockpit where traders can process trading contracts and their subcomponents,
such as purchase orders and sales orders and follow-on documents. In addition, TEW automates a large part of the data entry,
making processing quicker, easier, and with fewer errors.
Integration
To use TEW, you must install SAP Global Trade.
In addition, you must also customize the standard functions of SD/MM that are needed for background processing.
You can call the Position Management and Trading Expense functions directly from the TEW.
Features
Role-based layout of TEW is highly customizable to support different lines of business (for example, steel, oil, food,
energy).
Smart functions anticipate which tasks you want to perform and suggest the appropriate source and target documents
automatically.
You can process multiple documents on one screen (including creating deliveries, shipping noti cations for customs
clearance, posting goods issue, and so on).
A document ow diagram helps you keep track of what follow-on documents you have already processed and what
remains to be done.
The system remembers your selection settings from one session to another so you do not have to reenter them.
A message area on the screen displays all errors, warnings, and information messages that you have received during the
current session.
Constraints
If you process a document in the TEW, you cannot use standard SD/MM transactions to make changes to the document
because this can lead to data inconsistency.

Processing Documents in TEW

Use
5/17/2019
This procedure describes the steps involved in creating a follow-on document in the Trading Execution Workbench. This is meant
only as an example. The actual screen layout and selection criteria depend on how your company has maintained settings in
Customizing. Note that you cannot create follow-on documents (purchase order, sales order) for energy contracts, but can
create single settlement requests for energy contracts by using enterprise services.
Procedure
Assume that you have an existing sales order and you want to create a delivery document for some or all of the items.
1. On the initial Trading Execution Workbench screen, choose the TEW mode that represents your line of business.
2. Enter the following selection criteria:
Group
This represents a group of steps, or tasks, involved processing a given kind of trading (for example, tasks involved in
export, domestic, back-to-back trading, and so on).
Step
This indicates the target document you want to create (for example, delivery document).
Mode
This indicates the action you want to perform (for example, create, change, copy with reference).
Prestep
This indicates the document that you want to use as your data source (for example, sales order).
3. In the Ranges for Selecting Source Documents section of the screen, select the parameters you want to use to search
for the source document you want (for example, all sales orders created by you during a given month). You can select as
many parameters as you want in order to re ne your search. As you select each parameter, the system displays elds
where you can specify ranges (for example, a range of materials, or a date range).
4. Choose Start selection.
The system searches for the appropriate source documents and displays them in the Document Flow area of the screen.
You can select the Plus icon (+) next to each document to see which documents have already been created for it. This
shows you the extent to which the order has been processed.
5. Select the document you want from the list area.
Document header data is shown in a frame to the right of the Document Flow area, with the item lines in a frame below
them. If the system displays more than one sales order, the items for each contract are shown in a different color so that
you can easily see which items belong to which order (for example, all items for Sales Order A might be shown in green,
and all items for Sales Order B might be shown in blue). You may need to expand the frame to see all the details.
6. Do one of the following:
If you want to process all items for a document, select the header data.
If you want to process only some items or a partial quantity of an item, select the item line(s) you want.
7. Choose Execute.
The system displays the appropriate screen for the data you selected. For example, if you selected an item for which you
want to create a delivery, the Create Delivery screen appears with the quantities copied from the sales order.
Note
5/17/2019
Depending on the settings in Customizing, the system may perform the task in the background rather than display a
data entry screen. In this case, you simply receive a message indicating that the delivery document has been created.
8. You can make changes to the data as necessary. For example, you may want to create only a partial delivery, perhaps
500 tons of wheat instead of 700 tons.
9. Save the document.
Result
When you refresh the data, the document ow to the left of the screen is updated to show the new document.
