Discover how finance leaders are leveraging SAP Business Data Cloud to unify SAP and non-SAP data, and strengthen financial and management consolidation.
See how EPM leaders are modernizing consolidation in SAP Business Data Cloud to accelerate close cycles, strengthen control, and deliver sharper insight across the enterprise.
Join SAP and SimpleFi Solutions for an executive session on how organizations are modernizing financial and management consolidation with SAP Business Data Cloud — taking a data-centric approach that augments SAP’s standard ERP-centric consolidation via SAP Group Reporting.
EPM teams are under increasing pressure to close faster, improve transparency, and deliver reporting the business can act on. For many, this means revisiting consolidation processes that have grown too complex, too manual, and too fragile to support the demands of today’s finance function. This session explores how SAP Business Data Cloud provides a reliable, data-centric foundation for financial and management consolidation, unifying SAP and non-SAP accounting data in a controlled, scalable environment.
The session includes a customer deep dive with valued guest speaker Mrs. Erin Daly from NTT Data Business Solutions, offering attendees exclusive insight into how her organization made this transition in practice. Participants will see firsthand how PlaniFi Consolidations, a consolidation application built on SAP Business Data Cloud, is being used to modernize the consolidation process and the results organizations are realizing as a result.
This webinar focuses on practical, real-world use cases—not theory.
