01 · The Situation

Content Attached Everywhere in SAP, Retrievable Nowhere.

Founded in 2015, this construction company grew to more than 5,000 employees and a place among the top 25 multifamily general contractors in the US by combining design, material sourcing, manufacturing, logistics, technology, and construction into one integrated offering. Content was attached across almost every SAP transaction, but there was no way to download all attachments from different SAP objects at once. A high volume of non-PO expenses had to be directed to customers for reimbursement, and AP needed a workflow-based automation solution that integrated content.

02 · What Optima Did

Invoice Automation and Archived Content, Surfaced Through Fiori.

Implemented SAP Invoice Management, Invoice Capture Center, and Document Access by OpenText.
Moved content to OpenText Archive Center in S/4HANA, viewable through OpenText Web Viewer with no local client required.
Integrated with Fiori for ease of use and added the ability to mass-download attachments.
03 · The Outcome

Better-Run Projects on End-to-End Digital Invoicing.

Invoice approval processing time fell 70 percent and invoice automation rose 70 percent. Internal user satisfaction doubled, and project teams gained complete visibility and access to project-related documents, including the ability to download all supporting documentation. The company later extended this foundation with SAP Ariba procurement.
