SAP solution: Callidus

The variety of topics in the area of e-commerce is staggering. Together with SAP partners and a recognized SAP analyst from Teknowlogy/PAC, it was possible to develop a strategy for SAP existing customers - in other words, orientation for future e-commerce projects.
The person who should be doing Operations is now doing Development at SAP. The world is upside down: Chief Technology Officer Jürgen Müller has disappeared and his colleague on the Executive Board, Chief Operation Officer Christian Klein, is doing his job.
What existing customers demanded and former Chief Technology Officer Bernd Leukert tried to do for a long time has not been an issue at SAP since Sapphire: integrating cloud acquisitions like Qualtrics into the core ERP/CRM system based on the Hana database platform.
