The quality gate for your article masters.
gicom Article Creation provides a clearly structured upstream article process that manages and consolidates suppliers’ articles and catalogs centrally, as well as ensuring their quality, before they are transferred to the SAP article master.
As a platform solution built on SAP BTP, the GTP creates the foundation for a forward-looking modular supplier strategy, enhancing existing SAP systems sensibly and compliant with clean core principles.
gicom Article Creation. Collect, view, select.
- Put your suppliers to work for you: Your suppliers provide the article data through uploads and interfaces. No more Excel files, media discontinuities, or manual effort on your end.
- Automated consolidation: Identical articles from different suppliers are collected centrally and consolidated automatically. This gives you a uniform article view model.
- Faster access for purchasing: Purchasing gains access to purchasing info records and prices at an early stage. This makes evaluations and comparisons possible even before full articles are defined in SAP.
- Total governance over your articles: You decide which supplier should act as the regular supplier for each individual item. The selected articles are not passed on to SAP S/4HANA until after your selection. This reduces the load on master data management, and avoids duplicate records.
- Fully integrated in the gicom Trade Portal: Tailor article creation by adding the portal services you need. If necessary, you can easily enhance the standard with your own services.
- Forward-looking technology: gicom Article Creation is built on the latest SAP technologies. Developed on BTP, it integrates seamlessly in your SAP landscape – whether you run your S/4HANA on a public cloud, private cloud, or on premise.
