Query comes pre-installed with an easy to understand SAP data dictionary and supports simple drag and drop procedures that enable users to quickly create queries for virtually any cross section of SAP modules.

If users need to update data, they can use Winshuttle Transaction to quickly make changes to one or many data points in Excel’s familiar and more usable interface, and then upload the data directly to SAP.

Which SAP cost management processes are candidates for improved usability?

Winshuttle technologies can help improve the usability of several SAP cost management processes, including managing and analyzing costing data, integrating and migrating data, and creating or maintaining mass amounts of customer, product, vendor, and sales order data. Query enables users to avoid using SE16, SQVI, or SQ01 to more easily create reports based on costing data as it relates to production, operations, supplier, and customer status.

With a familiar and simplified user interface (such as Excel or Access) and development environment, business users can quickly and easily create and share automated SAP query and transaction processes. The data validation and security protections built into these processes help to ensure data integrity and minimize redundant data-entry tasks, which can help companies better align corporate resources and significantly reduce resource overages across all divisions and functions.
