ARCHIVING DOCUMENTS

ARCHIVING DOCUMENTS

An agile business environment demands fast and reliable solutions. Quickly finding, displaying, selecting and outputting the desired document from the SAP archives facilitates communication with customers, suppliers and auditors.

Although SAP is a complex integrated system, it unfortunately does not offer a standard archiving solution.

Although SAP is a complex integrated system, it unfortunately does not offer a standard archiving solution.

For example, it cannot be guaranteed in standard SAP that a reprinted document is the same as the original. If a customer changes their address after printing the original, most printing forms will print the new customer address on the invoice. Meeting the legal requirements regarding the preservation of the original documents can be achieved if the generated PDF document is saved at the time of printing.

THE ADVANTAGES AND POTENTIAL OF USING THE SAP HANA DATABASE

THE ADVANTAGES AND POTENTIAL OF USING THE SAP HANA DATABASE

The SAP HANA database keeps all the data in RAM and that is why it is now possible to develop real-time analysis. Previously, for a large volume of data, Business Intelligence solutions were used: data is aggregated overnight and Business Intelligence programs display data that is already aggregated.

The disadvantage of these solutions is that the aggregations have to be thought of before and the user cannot display a situation and then easily change the selection period or other selection criteria, like: remove certain products from the evaluation or exclude the turnover achieved from promotions.
The major advantage of real-time applications is that it offers the user the opportunity to analyze the results and allows them to improve their reporting based on the results obtained. A new data selection is possible and lasts only a few minutes.

For Business Intelligence programs the aggregated data is displayed and a new selection is not possible immediately. The exclusion of certain products from the evaluation or the turnover achieved from promotions in the case of Business Intelligence solutions is not possible without a development task.
