  • Which organizations are actively using ERP applications and what are they doing?
  • Where should I focus my training efforts to optimize the SAP® support of processes?
  • Is the current amount of customized reports still needed, and do they need to be maintained?
  • Do we really have to upgrade all customized transactions and reports from R/3 to the latest SAP® ERP?
  • Do I have a segregation of duties (SoD) issue?
  • Can I optimize the efficiency of ERP usage?

Business process maps are automatically generated, showing which parts of SAP® are used by the business in which time intervalls, and showing the degree of their customization.

During the design and blueprinting of new “to-be” processes you can use the deliverables for an impact analysis. It allows you to focus on areas where potential cost savings and improved efficiency can be achieved. Additionally, business related questions will be answered, e.g. how many sales orders have been processed by specific SD sales organizations, or which plant utilizes customized SAP® processes in MM to which degree.

Compliance and Governance for SAP® ERP

Complex ERP systems are potentially susceptible to segregation of duties (SoD) issues. By means of Profiling for SAP®, the desired responsibilities of SAP® users can be counterchecked against the real usage of SAP®. Reporting of the results can be done per job role, so you know what each role entails in terms of process activities, SAP® business blueprint process steps, SAP® roles and transactions.

ERP Optimization

Over the years, existing SAP® standards may have been supplemented with customizing because the needs of the business have changed since the implementation went live. With functional ERP upgrades or enhancements, most organizations wish to adhere to SAP® standard processes as much as possible and still keep their processes as individual as needed. Profiling for SAP® delivers the basis for cost efficiency and business effective decisions.
