Background and objectives mission

As part of the modernization of its information system, our customer decided to adopt the latest version of SAP in order to adapt its ERP to a new internal organization and benefit from technological developments. The aim of the project was to ensure a smooth transition in line with financial requirements, while securing accounting processes. The Project Management Assistance (PMA) mission covers the preparation and control of accounting schemas relating to financial transactions originating from FIS' Quantum application, as well as the functional validation of modules impacted by the version upgrade, in order to guarantee operational continuity and data quality.

approach adopted

The process involved several key stages, including an inventory of existing interfaces between SAP and other financial systems. A rigorous check was carried out to identify any corrections and evolutions required prior to migration. Next, the chart of accounts was updated by revising the correspondence tables, ensuring the correct integration of accounting data in the new version. Finally, the mission accompanied the application acceptance phases, in order to validate the correct operation of the new accounting schemas and ensure the conformity of event-based accounting processing in Quantum.

Benefits obtained

  • Secure SAP release upgrade with controlled transition of financial transaction accounting schemes
  • No interruption of interfaces with adjacent systems
