"SAP AFC is really good at orchestration and automation"

4.5/5

What do you like best about SAP Advanced Financial Closing?

The configuration process was a bit of a challenge. My system landscape is a bit of a mess, and it took my architecture team and a consultant six months to get everything connected to each other. It's slow going. The only time our deployment was predictable was once we'd got the mapping of our OData services right. From then on, every close was the same: The sequence took the same pattern for each close. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is SAP Advanced Financial Closing solving and how is that benefiting you?

It's true that its Real-time Monitoring and Orchestration of financial closing tasks gave us the centralised view of progress that we wanted, and it managed jobs across our landscape using the Scheduling Provider Interface. The content is better, and it's more consistent. It's definitely an improvement on what we had with the Closing Templates a year ago. So, you'll need to run an SAP Advanced Financial Closing application in the SAP Business Technology Platform (SAP BTP) in the Cloud Foundry environment. It uses SAP HANA as its database. It's cloud-based, so it reduces the workload for my team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
