I just need to do the business process viewpoint.

The goal of this assignment is to understand the current enterprise architecture of the ERPsim Dairy simulation that used in this course. In order to fully complete the digital cycle, you must first understand the physical world that allows a business to exist and operate. This includes all elements discussed in the TOGAF and Archimate lecture. Before implementing new technologies or changing business processes, we must create an architecture for ERP Dairy.

Upon completion of this assignment students should be able to:

• Dissect a business case to identify key elements for each of the required Archimate viewpoints.
• Outline ERP Dairys business processes
• Develop Archimate viewpoints for ERPsims enterprise architecture

Enterprise Architecture Project - ERP Dairy Goals The goal of this assignment is to understand the current enterprise architecture of the ERPsim Dairy simulation that is used in this course. In order to fully complete the digital cycle, you must first understand the physical world that allows a business to exist and operate. This includes all elements discussed in the TOGAF and Archimate lecture. Before implementing new technologies or changing business processes, we must create an architecture for ERP Dairy. Upon completion of this assignment, students should be able to: - Dissect a business case to identify key elements for each of the required Archimate viewpoints - Outline ERP Dairy's business processes - Develop Archimate viewpoints for ERPsim's enterprise architecture Instructions Your team has been tasked with creating Archimate viewpoints utilizing the information provided. The viewpoints management has requested are: 1. Organization Viewpoint 2. Actor Co-Operation Viewpoint 3. Business Function Viewpoint 4. Business Process Viewpoint a. You should consider breaking the section into multiple viewpoints. Examples could include Sales Process, Procurement Process, etc... 5. Business Process Co-operation Viewpoint Each viewpoint should be a complete representation of ALL the information presented in the case on the following pages. It is not enough to simply focus on one aspect of the organization. A complete architecture should be submitted to receive full credit. A rubric for this assignment may be found on Canvas. Your team should only submit a total of one Archi (.archimate) file with all five viewpoints represented as separate viewpoints. The model panel of Archi should match the screen shot below (\$\$\$ = your team's company code). This detailed monthly forecast is sent to the main warehouse department in the logistics center for use in the material requirements planning (MRP) process. Procurement Whenever the logistics center needs to purchase (procure) material from a supplier, the procurement process begins in the main warehouse department when the stock manager uses the material requirements planning (MRP) process to create a purchase request. The quantity of products requested is based on a combination of the monthly sales forecast created by the sales manager and the current amount of inventory in stock. The stock manager runs MRP to automatically calculate the difference between the sales forecast and current inventory to determine the appropriate order quantity. (For example, if the sales forecast is for 500 units and you already have 100 units in stock, you must purchase an additional 400 units to meet the expected sales demand.) The result of this automated process is a purchase requisition displaying the amount to order. The purchase requisitions are sent to the purchasing department. A member of the purchasing team checks the purchase requisitions for errors and creates a purchase order that is sent to the vendor/supplier. A copy of the purchase order is sent to both the main warehouse and accounting departments. Main Warehouse Inventory Receipt Once the vendor/supplier fulfills the order, the product is sent to the main warehouse. When the order arrives at the warehouse, a warehouse specialist inspects it for completeness and creates a goods receipt. The information on the goods receipt is used to adjust the inventory to reflect the restock. A copy of the goods receipt is sent to the purchasing office and the accounting department. The purchasing office compares the goods receipt with the original purchase order to confirm that the order is complete. If there is a discrepancy between the two documents, the vendor/supplier is contacted to resolve the issue. If the two documents match, inventory is stored until the logistics manager determines how much to send to the regional warehouses according to the stock transfer plan. Regional Transfer Logistics The company can only sell products that are in stock at the regional warehouses. To maintain inventory in the regional warehouses, the logistics manager develops a stock transfer plan by selecting the push or pull method and identifying the number of days between transfers. The amount of inventory scheduled to transfer from the main warehouse to a regional warehouse is specified in the stock transfer plan. When the stock transfer plan is saved, inventory is transferred to a regional warehouse later that day. The deliveries repeat based on the number of days between orders specified in the schedule. The main warehouse distribution center picks and packs inventory before sending it to a regional warehouse. A packing list and a goods transfer document showing the items transferred are created. The main warehouse keeps a copy, and another copy is sent with each transfer order. The main warehouse inventory is adjusted to reflect the transfer. The packing list is compared with the amount received by the regional warehouse before the products are stored. Eodels 23 E: *Team 5S Strategy Business Application Technology \& Physical Motivation Implementation \& Migration Other Relations Views Actor Cooperation Business Function Business Process Business Process Cooperation Organization ERP Dairy Company Profile ERP Dairy is a dairy distributor organized into two units: the business office and the logistics center. The business office handles the accounting, purchasing, and sales departments, while the logistics center focuses on getting products into the customers' hands. The company sells dairy products to small retail stores, which then sell those products to individual customers. The company has four warehouses managed by the logistics center. The main warehouse, located in the center of the country, is used as an inspection and sorting center for products received from suppliers or vendors. Once products have been received in the main warehouse, they are transferred to the regional warehouses to make them available for sale. The company serves a market divided into three regions: North, South, and West. Each region has one warehouse that receives products from the Main warehouse and then distributes those products to the company's customers. Sales The sales department is responsible for maintaining customer relationships, receiving requests for quotations (RFQ), and handling incoming orders. A customer sends the company a request for quotation (RFQ) before they order any of the dairy products. The RFQ includes the items, quantities, and required delivery dates. When an RFQ is received from a customer, a member of the sales team reviews the terms of the RFQ and prepares a quotation. This quotation is then sent to the customer. If customers decide to place an order, they send a purchase order to the sales department. A salesperson converts the information in the purchase order into a sales order used by ERP Dairy. A copy of the sales order is sent to the customer for their records. The sales order is sent to the regional warehouse that serves the customer. A copy is also sent to ERP Dairy's accounting department to prepare for invoicing. Forecasting The sales department is charged with creating and maintaining annual forecasts. On the first business day of the month, the forecast is updated. During the update, the sales manager reviews the annual forecast and compares it with the previous month's sales trends to create a detailed monthly forecast. Enterprise Architecture Project - ERP Dairy Customer Order Fulfillment The sales department sends the regional warehouse a sales order after receiving a purchase order from the customer. The regional warehouse manager then creates a delivery order from the information in the sales order. The delivery order includes a picking list and delivery information specific to the customer. A warehouse specialist picks the items from inventory and packages them for delivery to the customer. A packing list showing all the items included in the shipment is sent to the customer with the inventory. When the customer order leaves the regional warehouse, the information in the delivery order and packing list is used to create a goods issue document indicating the sales order number with item IDs and quantities. A copy of the goods issue document is sent to both sales and accounting. The creation of a goods issue document acts as a trigger for accounting to bill the customer. Accounting - Accounts Payable When ERP Dairy receives products from a supplier, the supplier contacts the accounting department with an invoice three days later. An accounts payable specialist creates an invoice receipt that associates the invoice with the purchase order. The purchase order is associated with the goods receipt created by the warehouse when the items were received. Once the items are confirmed as received by the warehouse through this process, the accounts payable specialist pays the invoice. Accounting - Accounts Receivable Accounting receives a copy of every sales order that the sales department creates. Invoices are not created until the goods issue document associated with a particular sales order is received from the warehouse. Once a goods issue document is received, the accounts receivable specialist uses the information in the sales order and goods issue document to create an invoice. The invoice is then sent to the customer. Once the customer receives the invoice, they send payment to the accounting department. When that payment is received, the accounts receivable specialist posts the payment to the accounting system and notifies the sales department that the sales process is complete
