SAP has announced the release of the first user experience package for SAP Business All-in-One solutions. The package provides SME access to key business content through a rich, unified and personalised environment for faster access to critical information and improved productivity. This is also the latest solution improvement for customers and partners participating in the ramp-up of SAP enhancement package 5 for the enterprise resource planning (ERP) application SAP ERP 6.0, one of the key pillars of SAP Business All-in-One.
SAP Business All-in-One solutions are the first to package preconfigured end-to-end business scenarios with business intelligence for better business process execution and higher user productivity. With this new package, SAP delivers an intuitive, integrated and efficient user experience in which SMEs will have one single working environment for SAP and non-SAP applications, defined solely by the requirements of the employee and the specific operational role.
Insights from channel partners bring shorter development cycles and faster time to market
This new user experience offering was the result of SAP co-innovation projects ever conducted for SAP Business All-in-One solutions. Through a series of global partner adoption workshops and the ongoing collaboration of the SAP partner ecosystem with regional SME Solution Centres, eight different channel partners from multiple countries volunteered to work with the SAP Business All-in-One development team throughout the project to help ensure a high market fit.
“Not only were our channel partners able to participate in this development project from the very beginning, but they provided invaluable input throughout the process,” said Robert Vetter, Senior Vice President and Head of SME Portfolio Development, SAP. “Through co-innovation with our partners, we bring together the best of two worlds to create a winning combination — the capabilities of our solution offerings and the leading market expertise of our partners. Joint efforts in the development stage such as this represent a completely new approach within the SME area and a model for the future.”
