How does fit-to-standard work
- Review Best Practices Process Flow: Understand the recommended,
industry-standard processes for the specific business area. In this case,
examine accounting processes within the agriculture and crop
industry.
- Demonstrate Business Process and Concepts: Present how the standard
process flow works, including key concepts and steps. For accounting,
demonstrate how financial transactions are recorded, reconciled, and
reported.
- Discuss Process Alignment with Customer's Requirements: Engage
with the customer to understand their specific requirements. Identify
where their needs align with the standard process and where
adjustments might be necessary.
- Identify Delta Requirements: Highlight any gaps between the standard
process and the customer's unique needs. Determine if these gaps can
be addressed through configuration, minimal adjustments, or
additional functionalities.
- Identify Required Configuration: Identify the configuration settings
needed to tailor the standard process to the customer's requirements.
This involves adjusting system parameters and settings.
- Enable Customer Execution of Standard Scenarios: Empower the
customer to execute the standard process with minimal customization.
Provide guidance on how to configure and use the system to achieve
their goals.
Example of a standard functionality
Consider SAP S/4HANA's Financial Accounting (FI) and Controlling (CO) modules. These modules provide comprehensive financial
management capabilities that align with the accounting needs of CropCo. Key features include:

1. Financial Transactions: Record and manage financial transactions such as accounts payable, accounts receivable, and
general ledger entries.

2. Cost Management: Monitor and control costs related to farming operations, processing, and distribution.

3. Financial Reporting: Generate financial statements, balance sheets, income statements, and other reports to analyze the
financial health of the business.

4. Asset Accounting: Track and manage fixed assets, including depreciation calculations and asset valuation.

5. Profitability Analysis: Analyze profitability at various levels, such as products, regions, and customers.

6. Integrated Analytics: Utilize built-in analytics and reporting tools for real-time insights into financial data.

SAP S/4HANA's FI and CO modules provide a foundation for managing CropCo's accounting processes efficiently. This standard
functionality can serve as a starting point for demonstrating the Fit-to-Standard methodology to the customer.
What will we do?
We will design a comprehensive technical solution using SAP S/4HANA as the core ERP, SAP Analytics Cloud for data insights,
SAP Cloud Platform Integration for seamless data flow, and SAP Solution Manager for project lifecycle management. This
approach will integrate operations, enhance data accessibility, and enable predictive analytics.
How ready are we?
Our existing IT landscape, including SAP S/4HANA and analytics solutions, provides a strong foundation for
the proposed solution. With the addition of integration capabilities through SAP Cloud Platform Integration and
project management using SAP Solution Manager, we are well-prepared to achieve RenewAgra's goals.
