Use Case

Cloud ERP with SAP S/4HANA Cloud

S/4HANA Cloud is ready to use from day one. In fact, you can run a business right from the cloud with your laptop, tablet or smartphone. With smart automation, ready-to-use business processes and solid reporting, you'll have an immediate head start.

With the Public Cloud version of SAP's ERP, you acquire a package of services that allows you to immediately run a business efficiently and transparently, and to outsource important aspects such as data security, compliancy and availability to parties that specialize in them. With the public cloud version, you are also guaranteed the most up-to-date version and an interesting bundle with everything you need.

Finext & S/4HANA

Why purchase S/4HANA Cloud from Finext? Finext has 20 years of experience in setting up SAP financial solutions and has developed a solid approach to aligning the data model between the operational and EPM layers. This integration is becoming increasingly important and so is the importance of reliable data on which to base the organization's strategic choices.

Finext is the ideal party to set up and align the finance side of S/4HANA with the requirements of governance reporting, tax and ESG. With our experienced consultants and partners we can handle any integration and migration job.

Grow with SAP

For most mid-market companies, the "Grow with SAP" bundle is the most interesting form of taking S/4HANA public cloud, as it contains all the building blocks needed to run your business:

  • SAP S/4HANA Cloud: the ERP that is the beating heart of the organization
  • SAP Build Process Automation: automate finance tasks
  • SAP Group Reporting: consolidate data from different entities

The Premium version goes the extra mile:

  • Advanced Financial Close: automated period closure
  • Cash Management: Treasury & cash flow for insight into financial stability
  • Receivables Management: manage payment terms efficiently
  • Build Apps: for low-code development

By purchasing your software as a service (SaaS- Software as a Service), it is also scalable with the development of your organization and you are ready for growth - and you can also scale down for a while when you can use a little less staff and costs.

With SAP's Best Practices, it is possible to transition and be operative within 4 months and experience the benefits of S/4HANA Public Cloud:

  • Automation of financial processes
  • Real-time reporting and analytics
  • AI-driven predictions
  • Compliance with standardized processes
  • Support for different billing models
  • Modern web interface

Real-time

SAP has completely changed the ERP model for Finance in recent years by making the HANA database the foundation of the system. By having all data continuously in (RAM) memory ready for use, (near) real-time accounting and reporting is now a reality.

Universal Journal

A major innovation is the introduction of the Universal Journal in which accounting and management accounting information is maintained in "one place. Among other things, this has made real-time profitability analysis a possibility.

Flexibility

With multiple accounting principles in S/4HANA, you can simultaneously use NL GAAP and IFRS, for example, for different purposes. In addition, it is possible to work in parallel with different ledgers and currencies.

Finance Led S/4HANA

S/4HANA Public Cloud comes in 2 flavors, namely Finance-led and Manufacturing-led. Obviously, Finext is the specialist on the Finance version which is extremely well suited for all project-based organizations and service companies in general.

Gartner places SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud in the "Leader Quadrant" primarily because of its strong finance implementation and in part because of its strong integration with Cloud Analytics:

SAP S/4HANA Cloud offers a leading global solution for core financials, including strong treasury and cash management capabilities and prebuilt, out-of-the-box SAP Analytics Cloud (SAC) planning content for core financials integrated into its core finance solution.

Finext has the right talent for both S/4HANA and Analytics Cloud.

The partnership with SAP and Finext is ideal for the client. Our deep-finance knowledge and attention to detail allow us to make the difference in a successful implementation.
