If companies rely on SAP to control their manufacturing processes, launch cycles can be shortened by up to 50 percent with workflow solutions. This can be achieved by digitally capturing SAP data.

After all, there are hundreds of data fields to fill in for a single product. Just one small mistake can have a costly impact. Software with deep SAP integration is able to automate the process of capturing the data and loading it into SAP in bundled form.

In addition, data quality can be improved by extending the business rules contained in SAP. Whether one adds required fields or limits the values: Modern workflow solutions ensure that data is captured correctly immediately according to the "first-time-right principle".

They are not only suitable for IT departments. Even SAP business analysts or SAP power users familiar with the business process and data can use them to create flexible workflows and adapt them to new requirements - without any Abap programming knowledge at all.
