Customer Use

Cases

Page 9: A Better Way to Integrate Excel and SAP - Winshuttle · PDF fileProcesses (Tcodes) Supported: 19 Benefits Received 60 FTE savings 100% + ROI ... – Identified use of forms & workflow

Customer Example

Use Cases include: • Data Migration for Go-Live

– Alcan acquisition = volume of data for new sites

– Winshuttle gave them the flexibility to get the job done fast and efficiently – not reliant on IT (LSMW)

– Migrated 8 US plants onto SAP, took 3 people, 4 days to move all the data over using Winshuttle

– Data included all open sales and purchase orders, GL balances, raw materials, etc.

• Budgets – Winshuttle gives a very flexible tool to download, adjust and upload budgets.

– Can adjust and re-adjust very easily by cost element/company etc. etc.

– Recently went through a budgeting cycle and went through 40 iterations using Winshuttle – was working in

front of the CEO and was able to present the new budget loaded in SAP in a matter of minutes and he could

not believe that they could do it that fast, rather than the normal go away for 3 days and re-present.

• Transfer Pricing – For 3,500 semi finished goods for US and Europe

– Download transfer prices, amend and re-upload in 6 minutes – compared to 3 days previously

– Competitive advantage - since they are able to reflect up to date pricing quicker and easier.

• Finished Goods – Creating F/Goods took hours – had customer Lotus Notes front-end solution = cumbersome & costly

– New front-end Winshuttle template = simple to use and strong end-user buy-in

• Vendor Contracts – Uses Winshuttle to change prices, quantities, add materials, delete lines etc.

• Mass Change – Validation and data checking to cleanse data (e.g. Vendors checks such as terms, contracts etc)

– Extract terms from 5 different areas in SAP to highlight/ensure consistency

– Front-end and SAP level validations enforced prior to posting changes
