Charitable donations

We  continue to recognize how lucky and blessed we are in all that we have, especially with our health. We recognize that others are not so fortunate and want to give a shout out to our colleague Heila who will be partaking in the Avon breast cancer walk shortly to help raise funds to cure this disease. We have donated to this cause before and it is a worthwhile charitable event. See Heilas progress here.

What’s been going on?

It’s been a long time since I last posted here… It’s been a busy year but that mean it’s been good as well. I am writing this blog at the heart of SAP, in Waldorf… I am taking part in the SAP Transportation Management 8.1 bootcamp helping SAP work out the kinks in the integration with TM and SAP Event Management. It uses a completely new technology to call the Application Interface which is interesting. The TM traceability / visibility is all achieved within the SAP EM system and the predelivered content ensures tight integration between the 2 solutions.

I’ve also been taking a good look in to SAP BusinessObjects Event Insight which is another great event related product but it looks for patterns in “chaos”/events to uncover other events / exceptions.

Will be presenting a paper at TechEd in Vegas this year on SAP EM vs. BOBJ EI so if you are there swing by and say hi.

Most companies use an integration partner to help them implement SAP. Once it’s in who helps them realize the benefits of what they just implemented? Companies should consider using a “realization” partner to help them drive out the ROI and effectively use what they already have. The focus of this presentation will be on the scenarios and functionality that is pre-delivered with SAP EM and which you most likely already have.
