Current Processes in VVF Indonesia
7. Why SAP for VVF Indonesia?
Many processes in MS GP are either manual or excel based which can be implemented in SAP for
better control and reporting...
Key modules like Manufacturing and Quality Modules are not implemented which are critical for
the Oleo business. Quality module is not available in MS GP.
As VVF India employees are using SAP since 2004, SAP in Indonesia creates a better case for the
shared services model.
An Oleo template exists in the form of Taloja operations within VVF India that is successfully running.
Can be used as reference.
VVF IT already has the SAP server and only a company code needs to be opened. There is no extra
cost of infrastructure / hardware.
VVF IT can make the licenses available for VVF Indonesia as it is a subsidiary company. There is no
extra cost to be incurred by VVF Indonesia.
VVF IT has a centralized SAP team that supports all SAP installations globally.
VVF IT has successfully transitioned Green Planet Industries from MS GP to SAP in 2018.
SAP materials masters (RM/PM/FG), Chart of Accounts, Vendor master, Customer master will be
extended to VVF Indonesia there by maintaining the same nomenclature which will make reporting
easy in the future.

Why SAP for VVF Indonesia
8. 8
Why SAP for VVF Indonesia?
MS GP is running on a single server environment. In the event of a crash, the downtime will be equal to
the time required for arranging another server. VVF SAP runs on a server redundancy model with an
offshore disaster recovery setup
MS GP is up for a hardware refresh as the servers are more than 10 years old. This is the perfect time
to avoid that investment.
SAP is suitable for Large Multinational corporates. Single system, multi legislation. SAP releases
Service notes for change in legislation in all countries E.g. Poland PLVAT. GST in India etc.
Microsoft uses SAP. GP is suitable for Small & Medium Businesses. Solutions are released by partners
in local counties.
MS GP platform nearing end of life (2025) The next product Microsoft Business Central (BC) requires
different licensing. SAP ECC will be supported till 2028 and till 2030 with an additional fee.
In MS GP, Manufacturing is available as an add on which VVF Indonesia has not implemented. No
Quality Control Module, No Budgeting, No WMS Module, No native connectivity to integrate other
software's. To get these functionalities third party modules must be bought or developed and the
integration is not seamless. Case in point GPI
Every aspect of business is covered in SAP. No Third-party tools need to be bought. All tools are
available within SAP. Some are free and some are licensed*.
