A practical workflow for Effort Estimator

Estimate SAP effort for ABAP developments from functional specs, SAP requirements, integrations and end-to-end delivery using structured AI-assisted analysis.

1. Prepare

Describe the scope or attach a PDF, DOCX or TXT file and choose the SAP context. Synthetic example: a read-only SAP S/4HANA ALV report for vendor open items, with company-code and vendor filters and standard export; no updates or external interfaces. State who approves the specification and performs UAT. AI PRO requires sign-in and available quota.

2. Review

Review the optimistic, realistic and pessimistic hour ranges, phases, roles, assumptions and exclusions. AI extracts scope drivers; a deterministic engine calculates hours. Complete missing volumes, authorizations and acceptance criteria. Insufficient or contradictory scope may require clarification before an estimate is returned.

3. Apply

Confirm assumptions, risks and open questions with the delivery team before adopting the hours in a plan or proposal. The confidence score is not a probability of meeting the estimate. Submit only authorized, redacted requirements: this AI PRO workflow sends content for server-side analysis.

Verification before operational use

  • Use a representative case with the inputs needed to reproduce it.
  • Confirm the result in the authorized target environment when runtime versions, namespaces, extensions, permissions or system configuration can change the outcome.
  • Record the source, assumptions, tool settings and expected result so another reviewer can reproduce the check and distinguish verified facts from recommendations.
