A global logistics and transportation provider was facing significant challenges in its
financial processes due to a fragmented system landscape and many manual steps.
The challenge
Manual process steps proved to be time-consuming and error-prone, leading to delays
in reporting and poor payment practices.
Existing financial systems were not integrated, which made it difficult to report and
analyze the financial figures holistically.
Master data was not set up properly in the course of the S/4HANA transformation which
led to additional manual effort.
The answer
With the support of Vicoland Consulting Services, the client decided to bring a
specialized Vico with industry expertise on board.
A comprehensive SAP FI implementation, including the introduction of a centralized
chart of accounts and the automation of accounts payable and accounts receivable.
Integration of SAP CO to enable detailed cost analysis and profitability assessments.
