Workflow Management for purchases and contract approval. With the purpose of
replacing Workflow Management with SAP BPA, we have used the SAP Build Automation Process to
demonstrate the pros and cons compared with Workflow Management in SAP BTP. As part of the review and configuration of SAP BPA
and SAP Build Work Zone, we set up a Task Center to find the limitations of using
a single point of task approval. The connection between Task Center and SAP BPA was
quite easy to achieve, either if Task Center is in the same subaccount or in a different subaccount. The connection
with SAP S/4HANA proved to be simple once you have installed the required Product version of S4HANA. And finally, we also managed to achieve the connection with
Ariba Buying and Cockpit, with some restrictions regarding the Identity
Authentication Services (IAS) and the Identity Provisioning Service (IPS).

- Configuration is easy to follow.
- Low code requirement.
- Friendly user interface.
- There is not much information regarding the configuration of IAS and IPS.
- SAP Configuration manuals are hard to follow as the steps are not always in order.
- SAP BPA has a positive impact on costs regarding Workflow Management.
- SAP Build Work Zone - Task Center is a great tool for group task approval.
The integration of Task Center and SAP BPA was easy to achieve. As mentioned, other connections were also made once all challenges were overcome.
So far, we are still adapting and migrating from Workflow Management to SAP BPA, so it is difficult to mention an impact on the results of a product that is not yet live.
