SAP-centric logistics execution
Bulk logistics in chemicals
Variability in chemical logistics
In chemicals, temperature sensitivity and density variations affect how materials behave during storage and transport, creating discrepancies between execution and financial data in SAP S/4HANA.
To ensure financial accuracy and compliance, such discrepancies must be identified, validated, and reconciled. Manual processes across multiple systems increase operational effort while reducing data reliability and introducing the potential for errors and delays.
Resolution through automation
SAP S/4HANA SDM extends SAP S/4HANA in alignment with standard SAP functionality. Material movements and physical changes are captured, validated and reconciled directly in SAP using automated, rule-based processes.
