00HomeTop, Products, SAP Invoice ProcessingTags: , , , , ,

Automated Sales Order Creation in SAP 

Sales Orders creation can be automated by eliminating data-entry of customer order data. Data is checked in the document monitor before sales orders are created. Exceptions are managed in the SAP integrated monitor before posting.
 

Sales Order Processing

Sales Order Creation - Highlights and Benefits

Automating sales order creation in SAP can be achieved by combining a number of technologies. 

FIS technologies reduce manual tasks and ease time pressure on the accounts receivables team.

As a result, the administration burden is reduced, as the process of sales order creation is made more economically.

Automatic Data Extraction - no data entry

Sales orders can be received electronically (EDI), in paper form or as an email attachment.

The key data from a customer order is extracted automatically via the FIS OCR document reader. The data is checked for potential errors before transferring  the order information to the integrated sales order monitor.

Sales Order Creation within SAP

The integrated matching process and data enrichment functions are tasked with directly converting a customer order into an SAP sales order with or without reference to a quotation or contract.

With the creation of the sales orders, additional supply chain functions such as order confirmation, shipping notification, goods issue and billing document are triggered automatically.

Customer orders that do not pass the plausibility checks successfully can be viewed by the accounts receivable team in the sales order monitor.

Functional description

  • Automated sales orders creation in SAP (paper, email or EDI data records)
  • Overview of all inquiries and purchase orders received

Automated Statement Reconciliations for SAP 

The FIS monitor provides automated statement reconciliations between vendor balances in SAP and the vendor statements. The SAP integrated application may also be used to reconcile payment advice notes from customers.

balances illustrating automated statement reconciliation

FIS / edc (statement monitor) is an integrated SAP technology that reduces the workload  when reconciling vendor statements or customer payment advice notes (remittances).

The automated statement reconciliation process can be then be achieved in less time and more economically than with SAP alone.

By freeing up time and reducing workload, the Accounts teams can then focus only on the invoices discrepancies between the statement data and SAP vendor data.

Releases of the technology run with both SAP ECC 6 and SAP S/4HANA. The application is able to process both vendor statements and customer payment advice notes in a single SAP add-in technology.

The integrated software in normally paired with the FIS OCR reading technology. This key data reading application automates the  data entry of key data from the statements. Statements can be also received via email attachments.

Automated Statements Reconciliations for Vendors

Vendor Statements usually take a lot of time to reconcile manually. In most instances - all statements are compared with the vendor account balance on SAP.

The statement monitor is focused on identifying vendors with unequal reconciliation balances compared to SAP. The solution’s main advantages include:

  • Reduced workload on the Accounts Payable team, who now only review vendor accounts with unequal balances
  • Ability to identify specific invoices from vendors that have been received or could have been misplaced
  • Improving the efficiency of the accounts payable team - who now only review reconciliation exceptions identified by the statement monitor
  • Statement data is automatically compared with the vendor balances in SAP on the date of the statement

Summary

For organisations who wish to make savings by introducing an automated statement reconciliation  process of reviewing vendor statement balances.

The statement monitor filters exceptions - statements that do not reconcile against vendor balances in SAP on the date displayed on the statement.

An alternative to

  • Manually reconciling statements against SAP vendor records
  • Spending time identifying which invoices from the statement are not in agreement with SAP

Highlights and key benefits:

  • Automatic OCR reading of vendor reconciliation contents from an emailed attachment or a scanned document 
  • Automatic comparison of data from the vendor data within SAP, filtering statements with non-zero balances
  • Identifies invoices potentially in dispute or lost invoices
  • Manual comparison of data now diminished, account team now directed to reconciliations where assistance is required
  • Vendor data from the document is compared with data in SAP in familiar a SAP GUI

Automated Payment Advice Note Reconciliations 

The document monitor can also be utilised to increase the level of automation and decrease the level of manual tasks required when reconciling customer payment advice notes (remittance advice notes).

Using the monitor, customer remittances can be matched and subtracted automatically from the outstanding invoices records in SAP prior to the payment reconciliations with the bank.

Therefore the automated process creates savings and improves matching accuracy.

Highlights and key benefits

  • Identifies invoices sent to customers that have not been acknowledged
  • Improves the efficiency of the accounts receivable team - who now only review reconciliation exceptions
  • Fewer manual comparisons of data required 
  • Customer data from the document is compared with data in SAP within a familiar SAP environment GUI  and therefore easier and quicker to adopt

FIS / mpm – Simplified Master Data and Price Management

10HomeDown, ProductsTags: ,

Simplified Master Data and Price Management

FIS / mpm (Master Data and Price Management) aligns specific routes and roles when creating master data in SAP. A staging area with a shadow database ensures the trouble-free exchange of master data with SAP Production.Master Data complexity solved

The FIS / mpm (master data and price management) application has been developed specifically for organisations with SAP ERP who face issues when adding new or maintaining existing master data. The FIS technology also provides functionality to upload large data volumes. The FIS technology is an "SAP centric" application that runs on SAP standards (i.e. with familiar SAP GUIs, Fiori and NetWeaver interfaces). FIS / mpm is an add-in application, deeply integrated into SAP standard with releases for both either SAP ECC 6 and SAP S/4HANA. The technology functions by using a staging area using tables in a shadow database. The technology eliminates the need for file exchanges and data mapping between SAP and non-integrated software. One of the primary functions of the application is to address the issue of master data governance. FIS / mpm provides a clear method of controlling master data updates for all participants in pre-defined roles. SAP master data team members are called on at the final stage only, releasing the new data into SAP Production. The software reduces the workload of SAP master data managers from routine tasks. Staging area and shadow database

Maintaining and storing big datasets is very time-consuming and cost-intensive. Due to the multitude of materials, it is particularly important  to automate the data creation and maintenance processes. 

The FIS / mpm shadow database is used as a "holding area" to store the data that needs addressing. The data is imported and copied from from SAP Production. No modifications to SAP standard are required.

Master Data Management Diagram Central to the  application is the staging area. These data tables are created, modified, enhanced, checked within FIS / mpm prior to the master data being transferred to SAP ERP. Identifying Most Common Processing Issues FIS / mpm fundamentally addresses the most common issues when creating master data in SAP.
  • Inefficient use of email as a workflow tool
  • Working with complex and bespoke Excel spreadsheets with multiple worksheets that are difficult to maintain
  • Processing data that includes detailed data completion notes
  • In-house solutions that required bespoke coding
  • SAP master data team called upon for assistance on basic tasks
  • Working with external applications that exchange files with SAP standard - which can cause issues with table synchronisation with SAP upgrades and enhancement packs
  • No governance with the process of creating and checking data prior to transferring into SAP
Governance Issues with non-defined roles mean that employees that may have the most expertise of the data (i.e. for vendors, customers, materials, prices etc.) may not be aware of the stringent data requirements of SAP. In practice this usually results in data omissions and invalid fields. Secondly, the SAP data custodians may have the knowledge of the strict master data stipulations of SAP but may have less knowledge of the initial data that is being added or maintained. FIS / mpm reduces the time taken by senior master data teams correcting minor errors from initiators. Schematic of SAP add-in technology with file options

Roles and processes defined

In an effort to resolve the most common issues, FIS / mpm defines typical roles (Initiators, enrichers, SAP key-users, SAP power-users etc.) and workflow procedures for SAP ERP master data. This means that data is reviewed by the correct people and in a stringent process and workflow and therefore controlling way master data is created and maintained. FIS / mpm addresses the core issues by defining the common tasks within the process and then providing a methodology controlled by the SAP master data team.
  • FIS / mpm provides an easy-to-use interface at source for the data initiators - significantly reducing the number of fields for completion, identifying mandatory fields and provides drop down choice selections for data import
  • Bulk uploads can created from FIS / mpm by defining Excel worksheets with clearly labelled tables
  • The FIS / mpm Web Dynpro workflow module allows  data checking by a supervisor
  • The FIS / mpm application validates fields for feasibility and completeness prior to advancing the data to the SAP supervisors
  • The FIS / mpm staging area is a workplace that provides a checking area before releasing of master data into SAP.
Complete and up-to-date data with the FIS / mpm Analysis Tool Keeping the data integrity the system correct and up-to-date is a big challenge for enterprises. Checking and comparing all data is very time-consuming and is therefore rarely carried out regularly. This is where the analysis tool from FIS /mpm comes in. The analysis tool checks the entire dataset either at defined points in time or manually initiated using pre-defined criteria. In this way, for example, the address data of customers is regularly checked for completeness. For incorrect data records, a data maintenance process can then be started with FIS / mpm. This automatically forwards the incomplete or incorrect data records to the appropriate person responsible for processing. The fields can also be filled automatically if, for example, the information in another field is identical or indicates the content of the field. In this way, the completeness and correctness of all data records can be permanently improved without much manual effort.
Summary
For organisations who wish to save time and effort when creating new or maintaining existing master data within SAP. For organisations who wish to create clear roles and governance for master data changes and additions.
An alternative to:
  • Complex forms and Excel sheets for participants with data expertise moving backwards and forwards between parties
  • Using Email as a workflow – no clear governance on processes – process unlikely to capture all necessary data comprehensively
