One of the benefits with using Spreadsheet

Server with SAP is we can use it for reconciliations.

This can help us see if something was manually put

into the system wrong. We can also do drill downs, which allows

us to pin-point the exact document or research the areas that can

be affected.

Spreadsheet Server allows its users to work in an environment they

are comfortable in and that is Excel. Also, it helps us to

eliminate errors from rekeying the data from SAP. It is a tool that you can be trained on and begin using within one

or two days.

I logged into our systemand was able to run all the

reports and the distribution to all the

cost centers. We sent out about 450 emails during an hour in a

hotel room, and it went to all our corporate managers, executives and everyone knew I was out of

town….but they still got their data while I was at

a conference!
