SAP Business Workflow

Training Details

SAP Business Workflow can be used to define business processes that are not yet mapped in the R/3 System. These may be simple release or approval procedures, or more complex business processes such as creating a material master and the associated coordination of the departments involved. SAP Business Workflow is particularly suitable for situations in which work processes have to be run through repeatedly, or situations in which the business process requires the involvement of a large number of agents in a specific sequence.

SAP provides several workflows that map predefined business processes.It also provides all the tools needed to develop and implement a custom workflow solution. SAP Business Workflow uses the existing transactions and functions of the R/3 System and does not change the functions. This enables us to implement additional functionality not currently available in the system.

SAP Workflow integrates seamlessly with the Web and HCM Forms and Processes. In combination with HCM forms and processes, it allows the companies to design custom adobe forms for simple functions like leave applications, request for transfer etc and integrate them with the approval and update processes using the SAP Business workflow.
