Hedging Price Risks While Trading Commodities

The new version of SAP’s commodity management helps companies in their pricing decisions when trading commodities. While minimizing risks due to volatile prices, the solution also enables its users to up their margin. The current version is based on HANA and will be part of the extension pack 7 for SAP ERP. The solution  complies with global hedge accounting standards. Mining companies, for example, can use the solution to sell their raw materials based on pricing rules and also hedge possible risks. At the same time, it would help them better judge their risk position, based on their open long and short positions. (Original in German)
