| SAP | Legacy | SAP ERP ECC 6.0 | ERP Financial | ERP | n/a | 2008 | 2010 |
In 2008, Adobe implemented SAP ERP ECC 6.0 as its ERP Financial backbone. The SAP ERP ECC 6.0 deployment was positioned to centralize core finance and order processing within Adobe's enterprise front end web applications, including the licensing website and Adobe ordering portal, and to provide a single system of record for order to cash and revenue workflows.
The implementation focused on Order to Cash and Quote to Cash process redesign, revenue operations controls, master data and pricing governance, and billing and fulfillment capabilities. Functional workstreams documented and executed business requirements, process flows, test scenarios, functional design specification approvals, and facilitated UAT sessions with stakeholders to validate configuration and process automation in SAP ERP ECC 6.0.
SAP ERP ECC 6.0 was integrated into a broader application landscape that included Hybris billing, SAP CI, SAP CC, SAP GTS, SAP to SFDC integrations, and B2B EDI partner interfaces, enabling transaction orchestration between commerce, billing, and CRM layers. Operational coverage encompassed revenue operations, business operations, master data, pricing, cloud provisioning, product teams, and EDI business partners, and supported high value order and deal processing during quarter end closures exceeding 500 million USD.
Governance and process transformation activities included cross functional liaison and escalation management, incident and outage reporting, Read Only extended support for deployments, and RAR activities for period and closure. The program identified and remediated a business process gap in order provisioning that led to explicit outcomes documented by the team, including improved customer experience, fewer order returns, on time revenue recognition of 100+ K USD per year, and savings exceeding 1000 hours per year of cross functional effort.

| Workday | Legacy | Workday Absence Management | Absence and Leave Management | HCM | n/a | 2013 | 2015 |
In 2013 Adobe implemented Workday Absence Management as part of a broader Absence and Leave Management effort inside its Workday HCM footprint. The implementation was executed alongside configuration of Payroll, Benefits, Compensation, Time Tracking and Core HR modules, aligning absence policies with existing payroll and time collection processes.
The Workday Absence Management deployment included extensive functional configuration and security administration, with business process setup for absence requests, approvals and absence accruals. Workday Absence Management was configured in concert with Compensation, Talent, Recruiting and Reporting modules, with creation of calculated fields, composite reports, advanced reports and BIRT layout reports to support absence analytics and operational dashboards.
Integrations were a significant component of the program, with interfaces built and supported between Workday and third party time systems including Kronos, payroll interfaces and recruiting systems, and data conversion work from Oracle using EIB and iLoad. Technical work referenced use of Workday Studio for integrations, development of EIB payloads, validation of data between tenants and migration of custom reports across tenants.
Governance and rollout processes emphasized cross functional collaboration with SMEs and solutions architects, formal discovery and mapping documents with sign off, QA prepared test plans and UAT scripts, and day to day support for Workday HCM, Talent, Testing and Reporting leads. The implementation narrative reflects operational coverage across HR, Payroll, Talent and Recruiting functions and includes design, testing and integration activities required to operationalize Workday Absence Management within Adobe.
