A Business Scenario is a distinct view of a sequence of Business Processes (and Business Process Variants) that trigger each other, thus forming an end-to-end process flow. These end-to-end process chains can consist of various Business Processes and Business Process Variants executed in a logical order. Business Processes and Business Process Variants can belong to different Business Areas and Process Groups.
A business scenario is geared towards achieving a defined business objective. The success of this objective can be measured using KPIs. A KPI clarifies the value the customer seeks and the benefits they wish to obtain. A business scenario describes the complete and thorough execution of a business operation. Consensus points to both the economic operational sequence and the functions, as well as data consistency. A business scenario is always described from a company's perspective. It shows B2B interactions with other companies, but this shows transactions within those other companies. This collaboration may include functionality.
