It is suitable, for example, as a follow-up solution to SAP SRM or as an early solution to a longer-term ERP transformation. The solution, which can be used flexibly as a cloud or on-premise version, is decoupled from master data and can be used with artificial intelligence use cases or innovations from machine learning.
