B2A 505 · IMPLEMENTATION WALKTHROUGH
How does a Build to Asset implementation unfold?
The implementation succeeds when archetypes, SAP objects, evidence, accounting outcomes, migration, and ownership remain aligned.
- 01
Discover
Catalogue investments, approval routes, archetypes, accounting policy, and handover requirements.
Exit evidence: Named owner, approved decision, representative proof, reconciled result, and recorded risk.
- 02
Design
Select structures, budget control, procurement paths, AuC model, settlement granularity, and handoff.
Exit evidence: Named owner, approved decision, representative proof, reconciled result, and recorded risk.
- 03
Prototype
Prove WBS-only, network-driven, mixed capital/expense, and multi-asset cases.
Exit evidence: Named owner, approved decision, representative proof, reconciled result, and recorded risk.
- 04
Configure
Build reusable controls, then add approved scenario branches.
Exit evidence: Named owner, approved decision, representative proof, reconciled result, and recorded risk.
- 05
Test
Run authorization, procurement, month-end settlement, capitalization, and handover end to end.
Exit evidence: Named owner, approved decision, representative proof, reconciled result, and recorded risk.
- 06
Migrate and cut over
Load open projects, budgets, commitments, actuals, AuCs, rules, final assets, and references.
Exit evidence: Named owner, approved decision, representative proof, reconciled result, and recorded risk.
- 07
Stabilize
Monitor settlement, budget exceptions, reconciliation, closure, reporting, and acceptance.
Exit evidence: Named owner, approved decision, representative proof, reconciled result, and recorded risk.
DELIVERY GATES
What must remain true?
The lifecycle stays understandable
Users can explain outcome, ownership, stage, exception, and next action.
Review B2A 101 →CAPABILITYEvery building block has an owner
Master data, documents, statuses, postings, integrations, controls, and reports are accountable.
Review B2A 202 →PATTERNAlternatives remain intentional
Exceptions map to approved archetypes rather than undocumented one-offs.
Review B2A 303 →Use 101 for process language, 202 for capabilities, 303 for patterns, and 404 for configuration and proof.
