Business Need
Many companies benefit from running mySAP Business Suite, especially in their larger locations, but they still use diverse applications and, therefore, have limited visibility over operations at smaller branches.
Many of these companies perceive integration to be costly, complex, and time consuming, and believe that it will require extensive training and resources. Headquarters rely on quarterly Excel spreadsheet updates for the exchange of financial information.
Many of our customers have expressed the need to improve control and collaboration with a solution that provides real- time access to data at their small operating locations.
Ultimately, missing integration between subsidiaries and headquarters costs money.
