2 LEARNING POINTS Reduce audit/compliance risk by using out of the box SAP POD (Proof of Delivery) functionality Increase ROI on existing SAP investment - Simple to implement yet powerful tool to record proof of fulfillment before initiating customer communications or downstream processing Increase cash flow, customer satisfaction and operational efficiency with SAP POD with minimal disruption to business

3 AGENDA Context The Show me the proof Dilemma Solving the puzzle Benefits of SAP POD (Proof of Delivery) Changes to SAP Application System Demo Contacts

4 CONTEXT Software/High tech companies with a broad product portfolio across software, hardware and services struggle to ensure the delivery/fulfillment is complete before downstream processes (such as revenue recognition or invoicing) can be initiated. The SAP POD (Proof of Delivery) is an out of the box functionality mostly applied by core manufacturing / shipping companies. This presentation presents how software/high tech companies can leverage the same functionality. The SAP POD functionality ensures that the fulfillment is indeed complete before downstream processes (revenue recognition, invoicing) are triggered. At the same time, this can also become the trigger to initiate confirmations to customers about product fulfillment/activations. The functionality is simple to implement yet powerful and provides peace of mind to IT, supply chain and finance functions. The presentation will educate participants on where POD fits in the overall business process, the business benefits and what changes in their existing SAP system.
