SAP BW on HANA: Controlling and performance measurement in strategic purchasing
Project duration: 8 months
Brief description
Development of a new Business Warehouse application for strategic purchasing at an automotive supplier. From a functional perspective, material/price changes are calculated on the basis of current procurement transactions, previous period values and planned figures.
Supplement
The implementation involves BW processes for modeling, data extraction, transformation and reporting. In addition, authorizations need to be managed and process chains set up. Programs are developed for formatting the procurement transactions from the previous period and masks are provided for transferring, maintaining and approving planning data. Next, the material/price change key figures are calculated at the supplier level on the basis of reference points from various previous-period averages or from planned figures (short- and long-term), which makes it possible to present the effects of prices and exchange rates.
Subject description
The application is used for controlling and performance measurement in strategic purchasing. The material/price change cause analysis makes it possible to defer the effects of prices and exchange rates and to examine substitution relationships.
