SAP Business One on HANA

Partner

MTC

As the Company deployed ERP, MES, financial verification system and trade processing management system separately, there was no integration or connection among those systems which led to the form of an information island, as well as the consequence that the accuracy and immediacy of business data cannot meet the management requirements, which became a bottleneck for the Company’s rapid development. By implementing SAP Business One, the Company established an integrated management platform to optimize process, improve efficiency and ensure quality. It also built a platform supported by SAP HANA® and SUSE Linux system for real-time and accurate accounting and analysis, helping the Company’s management make decisions more quickly and scientifically.

Before:

  • Lacked integration of various business functions from R&D, planning, storage, production, trade & sales to finance.
  • Unable to obtain production costs for each product/ customer.
  • Lack of data analysis of finance, costing, sales and customers.

After:

  • Build a fine management platform integrating R&D, planning, procurement, storage, production, trade & sales, finance and analysis;
  • Integrate diverse business segments, accelerate information flow and realize the integration of Manufacturing Execution System (MES) and Aisino system;
  • Carry out cost accounting for semi-finished products, finished products and by-products, and realize detailed accounting and analysis of the cost and profit of each production line and each variety;
  • Realize fine management of production and the inventory by role of fabrics, and even detailed into the product number, product cost and profit, product quality, etc.;
  • Leverage over 100 reports to present the overall business and operation situation in real time and help the management make decisions more quickly.
