A live walkthrough of SAP’s Working Capital Insights intelligent application
Thursday 15 October 2026 · 11:00 to 11:30 AM CT · 30 min · Live (GoToWebinar)
What this webinar is about
Working capital is one of the fastest levers a CFO has for freeing up cash. The data behind it, though, is usually spread across receivables, payables and inventory, and pulling it together takes a lot of manual work.
This session walks through SAP’s Working Capital Insights intelligent application in SAP Business Data Cloud (BDC), SAP’s managed data platform that ships ready-made data products, models and dashboards. The application comes with SAP-managed data products from S/4HANA, semantic models in SAP Datasphere, and ready-to-use SAP Analytics Cloud dashboards, so finance teams can get from raw data to insight in weeks instead of months.
Eric Blondin draws on SimpleFi’s work in data warehousing, planning and financial consolidation to show what the application does out of the box, where it needs extending, and how to turn working capital visibility into forecasting and action.
What you will take away
The out-of-the-box experience, live. The key working capital metrics (DSO, DPO, DIO and the cash conversion cycle) and drilling from the group level down to customers, vendors and materials, using SAP-managed data products with no custom extraction.
Where real projects extend it. How SimpleFi builds on the delivered content in SAP Datasphere and SAP Analytics Cloud, adding non-SAP data, company-specific KPIs, and links to Group Reporting for a consolidated, multi-entity view.
From insight to planning. Connecting working capital actuals to SAC planning and cash flow forecasting, with a practical adoption roadmap and lessons learned from BDC implementations.
Who should attend
Data and analytics leads standing up SAP Business Data Cloud, SAP Datasphere or SAP Analytics Cloud. Finance systems and FP&A owners who care about DSO, DPO and the cash conversion cycle. Controllers and treasury teams chasing cash across receivables, payables and inventory. And the SAP BW, Datasphere and SAC practitioners who would extend the delivered content.
If you own the data platform or the cash number, this session is aimed at the seam between you.
Why attend this working capital insights session
Because the working capital picture is only as good as the data behind it, and that data lives in three places that rarely agree. This is the version where SAP ships the data products, the models and the dashboards for you, and SimpleFi shows what it takes to make them yours: the extensions, the non-SAP data, and the link into planning. Thirty minutes, live, with time for questions.
