Success Story

Successful go live at Bergendahls: SAP POSDM to SAP POSDTA migration

Bergendahls implemented SAP Retail in 2003. Since the solution only focused on the wholesale business (with a Retail add-on) Bergendahls could not fully leverage all the benefits of SAP Retail. Some of the significant retail processes e.g. Promotion planning were performed outside of SAP.

  • Bespoke code with impact on multiple systems

  • Quality of the Master Data

  • Disabled SAP standard checks

Migration from SAP POSDM to SAP POSDTA
Bergendahls has migrated their SAP POSDM solution to SAP POSDTA enabling them to leverage additional SAP CAR based applications.

Solution

  • Migration to the standard SAP POSDTA solution

  • Replace custom code with standard functionality

  • All the standard checks were switched on

  • Concentrated on correcting the master data instead of bypassing the checks

  • Made monitoring of POS Workbench a daily task

Advantages

  • Correct POS transactions in SAP POSDTA

  • Reduction of manual efforts and increased process efficiency by using SAP to its full potential

  • SAP CAR migration project as foundation for implementing the SAP based RapidRetail Promotion Planning tool
