SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition 2608 brings new Product Compliance innovations to help organizations improve dangerous goods management, automate compliance checks, and increase transparency across the logistics value chain.

In this release highlights video, Claudia presents through her digital twin to explore the latest Product Compliance updates in SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition 2608. See how new capabilities for multi-component products and dangerous goods information can help logistics, transportation, and warehouse teams reduce manual effort, improve regulatory compliance, and manage complex transport scenarios with greater confidence.

You’ll see how logistics integration for multi-component products helps support dangerous goods compliance for products that contain two or more dangerous goods. When a document is processed in the value chain, the system can automatically execute transport permissibility and mixed-loading checks, then include the corresponding dangerous goods information on value chain documents to support end-to-end compliance.

The video also covers additional dangerous goods information for the value chain. Transportation planners and warehouse teams can access more granular information for multi-stage transport documents, such as journeys involving road and sea. The release also provides clearer stage-specific compliance information, including details required by regulations such as ADR 1.1.3.6, and extends visibility to multi-component products and products packaged using logistics packing instructions.

Highlights include:
🤝 Logistics integration for multi-component products — Support compliance for products that contain two or more dangerous goods.

✅ Automated transport permissibility and mixed-loading checks — Execute critical safety and compliance checks when processing documents in the value chain.

📦 Dangerous goods information for value chain documents — Include corresponding dangerous goods information on logistics documents to support compliant end-to-end processes.

🚚 Enhanced support for multi-stage transportation — Add optional stages for transport documents involving complex loading, unloading, and multiple modes of transport.

📄 Stage-specific ADR compliance information — Provide clearer dangerous goods information per transport stage, including information required by ADR 1.1.3.6.

🔍 Improved visibility for logistics teams — Give transportation planners and warehouse teams configurable views for multi-component products and packaging instructions.

Product development is becoming a strategic leadership priority. Here’s why an integrated PLM approach matters.

In this interview, Sarah Mei Niesel from SAP speaks with Achim from DSC Software AG, an SAP partner, about why product development can no longer be treated as a purely operational function. As markets change faster, product portfolios become more complex, and decision cycles continue to shrink, organizations need greater transparency, stronger governance, and better access to trusted product data.

You’ll hear why product development is increasingly a C-level concern, with direct impact on competitiveness, profitability, and business resilience. Achim explains how shorter innovation cycles, rising customer expectations, and growing product complexity are changing the way companies need to steer product development. The discussion also covers why leaders need clear goals, reliable data visibility, and fact-based decision-making to create value from product development.

The conversation explores common challenges that organizations often underestimate, including complex data structures, locally adapted processes, knowledge transfer, and workforce transformation. Achim also explains why isolated optimizations are no longer enough. To unlock the full value of PLM, companies need an integrated, end-to-end approach that connects product development with manufacturing, supply chain, external partners, and broader business objectives.

Watch to learn how an integrated PLM strategy can help organizations reduce complexity, improve transparency, support knowledge transfer, and build a stronger foundation for future-ready product development.

See how the Accounting Accruals Agent helps finance teams save time, improve accuracy, and manage accruals with scalable precision.

Accruals management can be time-consuming and complex, especially when accounting teams need to apply corporate policies consistently across large volumes of data. With agentic AI, finance teams can move from manual accrual analysis to a more automated, governed, and audit-ready process.

In this video, discover how the Accounting Accruals Agent can create accrual proposals based on your accounting policy. The agent applies policy formulas, analyzes historical data in SAP Cloud ERP, calculates potential accruals, and presents summarized results that are consistent, traceable, and governed.

For organizations that have not recorded accounting policies in SAP Cloud ERP, teams can use an accounting policy template to execute with the same precision. The result is a faster, more reliable way to support accruals management, helping accountants spend less time on manual calculations and more time on strategic finance activities.

With the Accounting Accruals Agent, policy-driven precision is scalable, helping finance teams strengthen accuracy, governance, and audit readiness.
