SAP runs the enterprise, but disconnected systems around it erode the investment. Manual data exports, broken middleware & siloed ERP data slow order-to-cash, delay financial close & hide operational signals across the stack.
Who gains the most from the SAP & Put It Forward partnership
Operations & Finance Teams - Faster Cycles
Eliminate 60+ hours per month rebuilding broken ERP data pipelines between SAP and CRM, HR, procurement & analytics systems.
Compress order-to-cash from 5 days to under 4 hours by automating Salesforce-to-SAP order processing, invoice creation & payment triggers.
Cut month-end reconciliation from 10 days to 3 days with automated journal entry consolidation and variance detection across subsidiaries.
Architects & IT - Enterprise-Grade ERP Integration
Connect SAP S/4HANA, ECC, HANA, Concur, SuccessFactors, Ariba & Qualtrics to Salesforce, Workday, Snowflake, ServiceNow & 340+ systems without custom ABAP development.
Pre-built BAPI, IDoc, RFC & OData connectors with AI-powered data mapping cut SAP integration configuration from 12 weeks to 5 days.
Governed data flows with SAP Principal Propagation, SSO, AES-256 encryption, role-based access & complete audit trails for SOX, HIPAA & GDPR compliance.
Business Leadership - Scale & ROI
Put It Forward eliminates the SAP integration backlog that blocks digital transformation. The partnership delivers:
- - 85% reduction in manual cross-system data synchronization effort
- - 65% lower SAP integration maintenance costs versus custom ABAP middleware
- - Measurable ROI within the first 45 days across order-to-cash, procurement & financial close
Unified Supply Chain & Production Orchestration
Scenario: A global manufacturer with 8 production facilities needs to connect SAP S/4HANA MRP and production planning with Salesforce demand signals, Kinaxis supply chain planning, shop-floor MES systems & Workday labor scheduling across a hybrid cloud-on-premise landscape.
Solution: Put It Forward delivers real-time SAP S/4HANA OData API integration with bidirectional Salesforce order sync, Kinaxis demand-supply balancing automation, MES production confirmation writeback & Workday shift scheduling data feed with automated exception alerting.
Results: Production planning cycle compressed from weekly to daily. Demand-supply alignment latency drops from 48 hours to real time. Manual data reconciliation across 8 facilities eliminated. Exception alerting catches variances within minutes.
End-to-End Source-to-Pay Procurement Automation
Scenario: An enterprise managing 5,000+ suppliers needs to unify SAP S/4HANA purchasing with SAP Ariba sourcing, Coupa invoice management, Salesforce vendor relationship data & Treasury Management for automated payment scheduling and cash flow optimization.
Solution: Put It Forward orchestrates SAP Ariba-to-S/4HANA purchase order sync, Coupa invoice three-way match automation, Salesforce vendor master data enrichment, Treasury payment batch orchestration & automated compliance validation against spending policies.
Results: Procurement cycle time reduced 40%. Three-way match automation eliminates manual invoice verification for 85% of transactions. Payment processing errors drop 90%. Spending policy compliance checks execute automatically at requisition creation.
Financial Close & Regulatory Reporting Automation
Scenario: A financial services firm managing $2B+ in assets requires SOC 2-compliant data pipelines connecting SAP S/4HANA general ledger with NetSuite subsidiary financials, Workday payroll journals & BlackLine reconciliation workflows for regulatory reporting.
Solution: Put It Forward automates SAP BAPI/RFC extraction, NetSuite SuiteQL integration, Workday Financial Management journal sync & BlackLine auto-certification triggers with 7-year audit retention, row-level security & automated variance detection.
Results: Month-end close compresses from 10 days to 3 days. Automated variance detection catches discrepancies within hours. Audit prep time reduced 67%. Full regulatory chain-of-custody maintained with row-level security across all connected systems.
