Every company that collects and processes a lot of information needs to know about Business Information Warehouse from SAP. BW is the best way to put all of your organization's information into one easy to access database that everybody can use.
In today's economy executives and other decision makers need the latest information at their fingertips as soon as it is collected. Unfortunately, many companies simply don't have the tools to do this. The data is available but people working in the same building or even the same office may have no way to access it.
Why You Need BW
If these scenarios are familiar happenings at your company you need Business Information Warehouse:
A sales executive may need figures on the latest cost estimates but they aren't available. Instead of selling the executive ends up spending her day on the phone calling around to see who has the figures and how she can get them.
Accounting needs copies of expense reports and invoices to close the books but they're nowhere to be found. Instead of closing the books, accountants and other highly paid staff have to waste their time looking through file cabinets to find a few documents.
BW can eliminate these situations and make life easier for everybody in the office. All of the organization's data can be organized and available to everybody who needs it. Mounds of paper files, rows of file cabinets and other expenses can be eliminated.
Warehouse can also help your organization become Sarbannes Oxley (SOX) compliant. SOX is a federal law that requires publicly traded companies to have copies of almost all financial and accounting documents available at all times. Executives and accountants can be prosecuted and even go to prison if they don't have those documents ready for auditors.
