Many SAP cloud customers rely on SAP partners for implementation and/or operations services where partners often leverage SAP support services on request and on behalf of customers. A close collaboration between SAP and partners is instrumental for customer success in such scenarios, for example, by enabling partners for a faster direct resolution of consultative customer inquiries as well as accelerated troubleshooting by support-qualified partner consultants.
By joining this session, you will learn about:
• the role of partners in context of SAP cloud solutions,
• how SAP and partners collaborate around SAP support services,
• how customers can promote a more targeted and effective collaboration by authorizing partners with the service partner user management application.

If your company is based on a great business idea your success is only limited by the performance of your processes. If you can operate your business efficiently, if your processes provide reliable outcomes and good quality there will be no one that can stop you. Unfortunately, you can spend weeks and months on only one process to figure out if it is performing like a star or is not fit for purpose. Most of the time it is hard to tell a-priori which process is most relevant, so very likely to measure the performance of one process is not enough.

The good news for everyone running SAP products is you could already be done tomorrow. Because SAP Signavio is offering Process Insights. It is the fastest way to understand, transform, and innovate processes for companies running on SAP ECC or SAP S/4HANA. Within 24 hours after a simple configuration this cloud solution provides a 360° overview of your company’s performance and enables you to analyze your core processes. It does not stop with analyzing but help you to achieve your business goals with actionable improvement recommendations.
