apsolut, an SAP SRM expertise partner of the SAP SE and “Global Strategic Service Partner” of Ariba successfully supported the ZOLLERN SAP base team in upgrading the existing SAP SRM 5.0 to the SRM 7.4. After apsoluts effective coaching, the ZOLLERN IT Team could successfully implement the upgrade of the test and productive system. Following on from the test and production implementation, the SAP UI5 interface was then set up on the SAP SRM 7.4 in collaboration with the ZOLLERN application consultation and adjusted according to the customer’s demands.

The upgrade was implemented with the aims and objectives

• to continue to secure the processes of the catalogue-based procurement of B- and C-parts and to improve these at certain required positions
• to apply the new user-friendly UI.
