SAP integration that eases your workload

10 May, 2023

SAP integration

SAP is the world’s best known Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system. It supports and automates business processes and related information flows as well as customer relationships.

However, SAP (Systems, Applications, and Products in Data Processing) which originated in Germany, was also created as a solution to centralize financial accounting systems in large companies.

In order to be fully effective, a SAP implementation requires extensive Business Process Reengineering with the accompanying change management strategies for all your business processes, as well as for corporate accounting.

Inevitably, companies have to involve third parties to facilitate other software integrations to SAP and to take care of the consequent system and software maintenance. All of this makes the ERP upgrade process much more time-consuming, complex, and costly than is ever anticipated.

 

Why is ERP Integration a Must-Have for Businesses?

ERP integration is the process of interconnecting ERP systems with other software applications used in the business. Effective ERP system integration aims to streamline the flow of business information and company workflows from distinct sources and conduct them into a unified system in order to extract maximum business value from:

  1. Automated Processes: Eliminate inefficient manual processes, such as data entry, multiple system updates, software and data conversions, and account reconciliations, by fully automating them.
  2. Real-time data: An integrated ERP permits everything to be updated in real time, from inventory counts to key performance indicators (KPIs), accounting data, and more.
  3. Single source of information: Communication and knowledge-sharing is facilitated across the organization – saving time, streamlining operations, and enabling informed decision-making
  4. VIsual workflow: working from a centralized database enables you to visualize cross-functional workflows for the entire organization
