Enterprise Management Layer for SAP S/4HANA - Information Hub

[Petra_Ohlinger]

In a Nutshell

The enterprise management layer provides a ready-to-use global template with standard end-to-end business processes, based on leading best practices and real-life implementation experience. With our proven project approach and clear guidance, it helps avoid typical implementation risks and ensures a high-quality implementation. Parallel accounting and localization coverage for up to 49 countries, template based approach and reduced cost make it a perfect fit for multinational corporations.

Combined with the SAP Activate methodology, the enterprise management layer will accelerate each customer’s implementation project, either used as a reference system or sandbox during the Explore phase, or as a global foundation for the entire system landscape. The enterprise management layer is available for net new customers as well as customers transitioning from SAP ECC to SAP S/4HANA that choose a greenfield, ‘back to standard’ approach. Available for deployment in a customer’s on premise or hosted landscape, it can be leveraged in the context of RISE with SAP and SAP S/4HANA Cloud, private edition.

The enterprise manage layer is based on SAP Best Practices and offers preconfigured end-to-end business processes across all application areas, including sample master data and print forms as well as detailed documentation for users. Its main value however lies in the preconfigured Finance processes that are specific to multinational corporations:

• Parallel accounting capabilities according to group GAAP as well as local statutory and tax requirements
• Localized, preconfigured business content and documentation for up to 49 countries
• Intercompany processes for sale of products with and without valuated stock in transit | for service and repair orders | for billing of fixed price and resource-related projects.
