Transform Finance with SAP S/4 HANA

Transform Finance with SAP S/4 HANA

Company Profile

The Need

The company wanted to consolidate the administrative and accounting management of the various international subsidiaries within a single group ERP system. Objectives: 

  • have consistent and “real-time” information on the financial dynamics of the parent company and foreign subsidiaries.
  • be more competitive in its markets
  • eliminate other local ERPs and the widespread use of spreadsheets sent by e-mail.

The Solution

First we equip the company with the latest-generation ERP and then extended its use to the various subsidiaries. The group began the migration to SAP S/4 HANA with the declared aim of acquiring decision-making support in real time and being more responsive to international markets. The revision of processes within the new S/4 HANA platform made it possible to:

  • View payables and receivables of the various international companies at group level

  • Take advantage of “local” modules and sub-modules that correspond to the specific needs (regulatory and functional) of the territorial branches

  • Manage your accounts and close your books easily and in real time

  • Display timely and real-time reports (Simple Finance)

  • Solicit payments automatically with different degrees of escalation

  • Create a Payment Proposal and enable payment of multiple invoices from multiple customers

  • Build up your customers’ bank database.

The Benefits


  • Single source of live data with a high degree of granularity
  •  ‘digital control tower’ provides a real-time view of financial data across the group and allows profitability analysis according to origin and production facility

  • Increased employee productivity through readily available and relevant information

  • Increased capacity for analysis and decision making through the availability of real-time data

Company Profile

The Need

The company was one of the first groups in Italy to embrace SAP ERP (go live 1999). Faced with the new challenges of an increasingly complex market and the need to integrate the international subsidiaries, the company board chose to stay ahead of competitors, review its business processes and migrate the old SAP ECC implementation to SAP S/4 HANA. The company aimed to take advantage of emerging technologies (Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence) and to enable new business models, setting the stage for future business development.

The Solution

With the migration to SAP S/4 HANA, the company has started a path of evolution towards the Cognitive Enterprise. It committed to great agility and chose real time data driven tools. We designed and implemented new process within the new S/4 HANA platform, the client is now able to:

  • Launch in-plant availability control (Advanced ATP);
  • Verify available stocks in the different production plants of the group;
  • Use finite capacity analysis systems to schedule production orders (based on the available time of machine and man resources);
  • Manage and monitor production progress in real time;
  • Visualize MRP analysis dashboards that highlight critical situations and stock breaks;
  • Visualize real-time kpi on orders, shipments and turnover;
  • From the dashboards take actions, such as creating a new supply order;
  • Have a unique and consistent view of a Business Partner (supplier/customer have been consolidated in a single master data) for aspects related to logistics, purchasing and sales;
  • Monitor the level of customer service, through KPIs that allow you to analyze from a qualitative or quantitative point of view the compliance with commercial deadlines and the service provided to customers. 

The Benefits

 
  • 80% reduction in MRP execution time allowing more daily launches

  • Increased ability to analyze sales in view of logistics planning thanks to predictive models in a single solution of Order/Shipment/Invoiced
