created so much complexity that

businesses often struggle to bring good

Deloitte has been collaborating with SAP

on the next-generation finance solutions,

SAP HANA as we use it within our own

financial systems. The role of the CFO and

the CFOs team continues to evolve, and

this new wave of innovation will allow

finance professionals to access information

in new ways, enabled by the speed and

power of SAP HANA. This will help to drive

Finance, powered by SAP HANA, has

proven to be the right solution to drive our

key financial processes and reporting in

real time. Our finance users were really

impressed by the ability to perform reporting

and analytics on item levels. Reconciliations

of costs and financial accounting can now

be done at any time. Im fully confident this

is the way forward to run finance at DSB.

The financials add-on for SAP Business

Suite powered by SAP HANA was deployed

disruption to our business. We now have

one common platform for both regulatory

the-fly financial processes. This innovation

will help us deliver stronger financial

leadership through better advice on strategic

that impact the business performance and

effectiveness of SAP.

Luka Mucic

Chief Financial Officer, SAP SE

Our students live in a technological era,

and we must provide a consistent

environment so that their learning life and

their social life can seamlessly blend. Our

teaching staff and researchers must also

have administrative overhead lifted from

them so they can concentrate on their core

activities. As an example, with SAP Simple

Finance, our finance organization will be

able to focus on the most essential tasks

and get the job done in real time.

John Dewar,

President & Vice Chancellor

La Trobe University (Australia)

As a leader in high security technology,

innovation is critical for us, which includes

implementing our internal processes, such as

finance, on the latest technology platform. SAP,

with its SAP HANA technology, is definitely

ahead of the competition with its database

technology and speed. We have run SAP

ERP since 2002, and will now change our

platform to SAP HANA, to enable us to take

advantage of SAPs continuing innovations

such as SAP Simple Finance, to meet our

goal of being a technology leader both in our

own business, as well as in our internal

support processes.
