Dear All experts of EH&S,
I am beginner in SAP EH&S GLM. I am learning configuration of GLM (creating labels,labelsizes,generation variant,reort templates ..etc).
Please suggest me which thing I should be knowing other than this. As I am moving to project of GLM.
Thank you all in advance.
Regards,
Mahe
Dear Mahe
on:
you will get a high level overview of GLM which is a good starting point. In this FORUM many threads have been discussed with topic "GLM". The Best Practise approaches of SAP regarding GLM has been mentioned as well. Therefore I will only enumerate the "critical" success factors
a.) you need to understand the label printing scenarios
b.) you need to understand the LabelView in material master (how to set up, how to maintain, what is the purpose etc.)
c.) you need to understand "Bar code" printing and what is needed to print Bar Codes
d.) difference between "normal" and customer specific labels
e.) you need to understand the packaging hierarchy and how is it used and linke to GLM process
f.) you need to understand set up of WWI Server (little bit different in comparison to the other WWI reports)
g.) you should by familiar with WWI dynamic font sizing
h.) you need to understand the "label"printing tool
i.) Labels do need in many cases more data from SAP ERP system in comparison to SDS/MSDS. You need to understand which data is needed; to find corresponding report symbols or to create new ones
etc.
In this FORUM you will find as well threads regarding on "high perfomance printing" topics etc.

Hi Mahe,
Some other inputs in GLM:
1. You must understand the functionality towards Pictograms/ symbols - most of the business requirements would be on hazard symbols/ classification symbols part of the labels.
2. Integration with Substance/ Specification work bench. as most of the EH&S data will be stored here.
3. Usage of Label size/ Genration variant in Material master - label data view.
4. Limiting the usage of the label towrds validity area.
5. Language specific labels. If you are dealing with different countries/ regions....this is important functionality.
6. Usage of phrase management.
7. Barcode - This is not part of standard functionality in ECC 6.0. Need to have a seperate licences from SAP, to use this functionality.
Other than these, focus towards label template creation.
have to put more efforts to understand the functionality how symbol behaves while inserting with Blank compression/ Repeating group, etc.,

Dear Subash
such examples are "hard" to describe. Sometimes customers use a combination of SAp and a different software to print labels. In any case: may be start a new thread regarding your topic
