YASH SAP Practice Overview

In order to properly manage quickly fluctuating real estate markets, organizations require the most up-to-date, real time information. Without this, organizational responsiveness and competitive positioning are at risk. The client's existing Legacy systems could not provide real-time access to accurate information, which hindered the company's decision-making process and created inefficiencies in Property Lease Management and Data Administration.

They sought an industry-leading SAP Business Intelligence (BI) platform that could easily manage the growing complexity of global legal requirements and provide analytical tools to support strategic, tactical and operational levels of decision-making. This global integration platform would streamline and support the Real Estate lifecycle management with automated processes, and create a cohesive environment within the company.

YASH Technologies delivered SAP BI integration tools that improved decision-making and enabled more effective management of liquidity, investment portfolios and risk. The platform provided comprehensive enterprise support in the following areas:

SAP ERP was implemented on a global scale with multiple ledgers to meet legal requirements with real-time integration

SAP Master Data Management with Usage and Architectural views became integrated with SAP Fixed Assets/Accounting

SAP Lease Management was implemented to automate the contract lifecycle, adjustments, and deadline monitoring

SAP Real Estate Cost Recovery was utilized for adjustments and distribution to tenants

SAP BusinessObjects with Crystal Reporting was implemented to provide enterprise wide reporting capabilities

After implementing SAP BI, the client realized seamless integration between leasing transactions and accounting, controlling, maintenance and reporting functions. Increased transparency and flexibility of the new system allowed the client to receive full, accurate visibility into business processes, and to meet global legal requirements with ease.Integrated reporting capabilities optimized investment decisions by providing accurate cost/revenue performance data across all areas of their business, and significantly reduced the financial closing and reporting times. Automation of business processes decreased administrative costs and increased user satisfaction.
