SAP Process Control at a glance
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We are using SAP Process Control as the backbone of our internal control system. It helped us to get rid of offline files, established a single source of truth, and helped us to implement a workflow based way of working. With the possibilities that SAP Process Control offers, we managed to mature our way of working as well as our internal control system.
Pros
- Workflows - The workflows of SAP Process Control are extremely helpful
- Reporting - Standard reports as well as the connection to SAP AC is very helpful
- Continuous Control Monitoring is the way to go in ICS Topics in the future.
- Handling of users - Assignment and Replacements
- Spot Checks - Helpful workflows and setup
Cons
- Connection to SAP AC
- Easier workflows for remediation actions
- Configuration of workflows - e.g. email templates for workflows
- Survey design
Likelihood to Recommend
In my opinion, SAP Process Control is well suited for bigger companies with an already mature Internal Control System as well as for bigger companies who want to completely new/redesign the internal control system. The size of the company, as well as the budget, is quite important when thinking about the implementation of SAP Process Control. A smaller company with e.g., 150 people should think more about implementing SAP FCM.
