Business and IT problems Disconnected Unstructured Information & Growing Data Size
Disconnected Structured and Unstructured information
Many processes are triggered by, include and generate unstructured content (e-mails, e-documents, scanned images etc.). ERP generally doesnt handle unstructured content. Business documents are geographically distributed in different sites. How to handle business processes with centralized ERP and distributed associated process documents?

Growing size of SAP data


Ever-increasing size of SAP data Increased storage requirements Large database size Decreased performance Need of server hardware upgradation

Examples Accounts Payable Paper-based processes & Low Productivity


Retaining and storing unstructured information as per government compliance Expensive audits mapping huge number of SAP transactions with associated unstructured content Low process efficiency & Manual interventions SAP Workflows move to next stage in a fraction of second. But paper moving from one table to another OR one city to other takes ages Typically affected processes AP, AR, HR, Customer-centric, purchase and Shared services Paper based invoices, e-mail based approvals etc. Not attached to associated AP transactions or workflows Hard to retain the unstructured information for 7-8 years as per government regulations Error-prone and difficuilt to audit and govern Difficult to manage high volume, paper-based AP processes Every invoice passes through several people for review/approval Lower efficiency, missed due dates, missed cash discounts for early payment and late fees
