In order to fully automate and optimize the business processes, companies need to integrate SAP with Salesforce within their organization. Some of the uses and benefits of integrating SAP with Salesforce are discussed below.

Efficient data management

When information about a new customer is entered into Salesforce, then at the same time this data is available for financials, performance management, and other business functions managed by SAP.

Better invoice creation

When organizations won the opportunities then due to sync SAP helps in the easy creation of invoices for that particular won opportunity.

Effective time and errors management

Integration eliminates the need for dual data entry for cost and invoice generation of won leads, hence save time and money. It also results in fewer data redundancies and errors caused by manual data entry.

Fulfill orders in real-time

When a new opportunity closes in Salesforce CRM, the associated order details are automatically placed within the ERP system immediately and further, it estimates cost. Hence it makes the entire opportunity-to-order process optimized.

Accelerate cash flow

Integration makes it easier to identify and notify any overdue accounts in order to collect what is due to your company. As a result, it makes the finance department recognize revenue sooner by achieving its monthly financial close faster.

Quote correct price

Sales reps can go through real-time pricing and product synchronization between SAP and Salesforce which makes them view and forecast the effect of price impacting on profit margins. It helps to take action more immediately to rectify the situation with a new discounting rule if it affects profit margins adversely.

Maximize ROI

It leverages all the custom functionality that the company has built using the force.com platform and SAP ERP and makes it more efficient as a result of creating a cloud-based layer of agility around the ERP environment.
