Delta Surgical extends SAP Business One Reporting with FastClose Planning and Budgeting

Delta Surgical, a leading provider of innovative medical products and rapid supply solutions for critical care, surgical, and hospital settings, has expanded its use of FastClose to include planning and budgeting.

Karen West, Financial Controller at Delta Surgical, explains the decision:

“

We initially adopted FastClose for financial reporting because the standard reporting capabilities of SAP were quite limited. FastClose allowed us to create all key reports, and what was particularly impressive was the interactivity and ability to drill down into underlying transactions, which is crucial for understanding the details behind the numbers.

Nick Gomersall, CEO of FastClose, elaborates:

“

SAP’s modern design lacks the traditional balance tables found in most ERP systems, presenting significant challenges in reporting. Management requires both high-level information and detailed data. With FastClose’s in-memory OLAP (Online Analytical Processing) engine, we can roll up SAP’s transaction table in real-time, providing the accounts team with exactly what they need.

Karen continues: “Our next challenge was budget reporting, which we had been handling in Excel because SAP’s system was too restrictive. FastClose recently released their budgeting and planning system, which we trialled.

It proved highly effective, utilizing their Excel plug-in which enables live FastClose reports to be run directly in Excel. FastClose enabled an upload from Excel to their budgeting tables, simplifying the data entry process. Now, I can generate management reports with budget variances directly from FastClose or through the Excel plug-in, saving me a significant amount of time.”

Robin Humble CEO, has the last word.

“

Prior to using FastClose we were frustrated with the limited number of reports we can generate through our SAP ERP system, however with FastClose this has been transformed allowing us to analyse data and reports quickly and efficiently helps us to ensure we make smarter business decisions. We are also receiving faster month-end management reports. I would have no hesitation in recommending FastClose for any company looking to improve management information and access to critical data within their ERP software."
