Editor's Notes

  1. 07/04/13 SAPCOE is a consumer electronics company with plants, suppliers and customers all over the world. The following scenario demonstrates how SAPCOE’s fully integrated suite of SAP solutions helps them to react faster and more efficiently to real-world business problems. Call Center - Chris Johnson from Midland Industries is interested in purchasing 500 WebPhones, specifically, the SAPCOE WebPhone 2000. Customer Relationship Management - Working from home, a SAPCOE sales representative uses the Mobile Sales application to follow up with the customer, help them configure the phones, confirm cost and shipping date, and uploads the order to SAPCOE’s R/3 System. Advanced Planner & Optimizer - Midland’s order for 500 phones triggers a due date alert in the APO system. Production is shifted to another plant and optimization routines reschedule production. A material shortage alert is forwarded to the SAPCOE Purchasing Manager. Business to Business Procurement - Using the e-commerce solution, 500 camera assemblies are ordered from Munipack. After receiving a quote from Munipack’s R/3 system, a SAPCOE purchase order is created and a Munipack sales order is created in their respective R/3 Systems. Warehouse Management - The completed WebPhones are shipped to Midland Industries on the promised date. SAP Business Information Warehouse - SAPCOE’s president wants to see a report on customer contribution margins and drill down to view Midland Industries’ satisfaction ratings.
  2. Integration in the “old” economy meant business process integration. ERP made SAP R/3 a worldwide standard system Since 1996 SAP R/3 has been e-commerce capable SAP products incorporated business technology for the future allowing customers to be ready for the future without system change Integration in the “new” economy requires integration of processes between enterprises. Collaboration More than working together Processes, where many users participate, can be executed simultaneously as one-step-business
