SAP S/4HANA Embedded Analytics

Instead of having to rely on a separate data warehouse or external BI tools, users can create reports and call up current key figures directly in the SAP ERP system. This leads to well-founded decisions based on live, updated data and reduces delays and potential errors due to data replication.

Operating costs are also reduced as no parallel analytics system is required for operational analyses.

SAP S/4HANA Embedded Analytics uses SAP HANA's in-memory technology to perform real-time analyses on live data. This allows business decisions to be made on the basis of information that is always up to date - without waiting for nightly batch runs or data imports. Managers and employees have a clear view of key performance indicators, trends and exceptions at all times.

This creates a real-time basis for decision-making that enables them to react more quickly to market changes and proactively initiate measures. The seamless integration of transaction and analysis data significantly increases the data quality and reliability of the evaluations.

A major advantage of embedded analytics is its seamless integration into daily business processes. Analytics apps and reports are embedded directly in the SAP Fiori interface of S/4HANA and can be accessed in the familiar user interface. Users do not have to leave the operational system to view important key figures or create ad hoc reports - the analytics go where the data is generated. This seamless integration increases user-friendliness and acceptance, as employees experience analytics as a natural part of their work.

SAP S/4HANA Embedded Analytics can be extended with comprehensive data & analytics solutions to ensure holistic information management. For example, SAP Datasphere (successor to SAP Data Warehouse Cloud) can be connected to combine the rich operational S/4HANA data with other data sources in the company.

This enables advanced analyses, company-wide reports and the combination of live ERP data with historical or external information. As part of the strategic SAP Business Data Cloud, Embedded Analytics fits seamlessly into SAP's holistic data landscape.

In order to exploit the full potential of SAP S/4HANA Embedded Analytics, professional implementation and individual configuration are crucial. Every company has specific key figures, processes and reporting requirements - embedded analytics should be configured accordingly.
