Your ‘How To’ Guide To Finance Value Creation

At SAP, we’ve been rethinking the very purpose of an ERP solution for finance. Rather than simply focusing on finance efficiency for transactional processing, we’ve shifted our attention to value-creating activities with a simplified architecture. We’ve reshaped and revisited each finance process. The result is a new tipping point in the era of intelligent finance.

Whether your own need for change stems from evolving customer expectations and behaviours, adoption of new business models with complex transactions around usage-based revenue, demand for greater agility and resilience or simply the need to reduce operational costs, the finance function is evolving significantly, impacting the demands of the system landscape.



By harnessing the intelligence of Machine Learning and AI, our customers are now able to drive finance strategy, business insights, risk, compliance and cost reduction with assurance and automation like never before. We’ve accelerated time to value in ERP migrations, solving the need to balance change with business continuity through fast finance transformation with a 360-degree view. We’ve empowered internal and external stakeholders with more confidence and visibility via streamlined, standardized treasury processes, giving more control to the treasurer.

And we’ve added intelligent capabilities into the principle of continuous closing, increasing efficiencies, enriching financial data with additional analysis and multi-dimensional managerial insights for faster business steering.

We’d like to show you how this disruptive technology leapfrog is a fundamental game changer for your business.

Our webinar series, Empowering Finance Value Creation – The New Tipping Point shows you customer examples of how your peers are benefitting from advanced intelligent finance and how they’ve achieved it. Through five webinars running every Thursday for 45 minutes, you can learn how to unlock new levels of performance across your organization, simplify key decision making, and automate time-consuming finance processes.

Finance has reached its own digital transformation tipping point and has changed forever. Find out how much it can do for your finance department. You can register for the Webinar Series here.
