SAP ERP 6.0 Retail/SAP BW: International rollout for Austria, Czech Republic and Slovenia
Project duration: 1 year, 11 months
Brief description
The central enterprise resource planning based on SAP R/3 is also to be used for the European regional companies. These need to be integrated into the central system. In parallel to these activities, the connected business systems (branch resource planning, cash register systems, scanner systems, etc.) are introduced in the associated specialist stores.
Supplement
SAP Solution Manager is used to control the project; the focus for its use is on documentation, testing and change request management. The project is coordinated by the customer’s SAP Competence Center because SAP Retail is the leading system for both accounting, which is already used in the regional companies with the FI and CO modules, and for the logistical processes.
Subject description
The rollout will initially take place in the Austrian, Czech and Slovenian regional companies; these companies currently handle their trade processes by means of individual systems involving both AS/400 and IBM/36 programs and data structures. In addition to rolling out the processes that are already established in Germany in headquarters and the subsidiaries (which are to form the guideline for the regional companies), one focus will be the migration and associated merger of the master data, which will serve as a functional harmonization of the supplier and item master data and conditions.
