During the recent roundtable dinner at LOETJE in Amsterdam Zuid, Heads of Finance, IT Directors, Project Managers, and Consultants gathered to discuss key topics with conversations revolving around Data Governance of Financial data, Benchmarking versus Analysts and competition, Fiscal, Regulatory TAX, Compliance, Social, governance and environment (ESG), EU deforestation (EUDR) and Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) data, highlighting challenges and strategies for overcoming them.
Key discussion points included:
- Identification of report users and inactive reports; why >1.000 reports?
- Managing legacy system data
- Evaluation of BI solutions and addressing pain points
- Resolving the fact that "regular" bi solutions do not understand financial hierarchies resulting in data interpretation challenges
- Comparing SAP SAC, PowerBi, and CXO reporting solutions
- Timely delivery of reports out of SAP SAC
- Creating an ERP roadmap and realigning past decisions
- Ownership and consultancy agency influence
- Mitigating future challenges post-platform delivery
- Performance benchmarking of SAP platforms
- Accelerating S/4HANA implementation and cost-saving strategies
- Maximizing ECC asset value before migration to S/4HANA
We are excited to share our findings and insights with the community. Let's continue the conversation on optimizing financial data management and operational efficiency.
