The initial setup is pretty simple. You just have to complete the step-by-step book from SAP. It's very simple. I'd rate the ease of setup eight out of ten. The deployments are manageable every week, so if it's for the simple change, it's weekly. We divide our changes into minor, medium, and major. Minor deployments go every week, major ones go biweekly, and then the major change is monthly or once every two months. How long it takes depends upon the objects that you're sending and the number of objects that you're sending, and the changes that you're sending. There is a max of six hours of downtime when you have a big change going in, however, when you have a minor change every week, it's under an hour. You only need one resource to handle deployment. There is regular maintenance required. On the BW side, an average team size of ten is good. Depending upon the complexity, it might increase. It depends client to client. You can't put a number on that since it all depends on the number of modules implemented and the number of reports available. On the support range, it's a medium-scale. If there is only BW support, a minimum of three and a maximum of five resources are necessary. It's only for BW, not any other integration reporting tool. Just for BW, about three resources is enough, however, for BW.
