| SAP | Legacy | SAP S/4 HANA | ERP Financial | ERP Financial Management | n/a | 2018 | 2018 |
In 2018 ALDI Australia implemented SAP S/4 HANA as its core ERP Financial platform to support consolidated corporate accounting across its Australian subsidiary and network of over 530 stores. The deployment was positioned to centralize month end and year end statutory reporting, cash forecasting and treasury operations, and consolidated financial reporting for the finance business partner and corporate accounting teams.
Implementation work focused on financial modules and accounting controls within SAP S/4 HANA, including general ledger reconciliation, accruals processing, intercompany accounting and balance sheet reconciliations, journal entry posting and master data maintenance. The environment operated alongside SAP BPC, SAP BW and Hyperion for budgeting, forecasting and financial consolidation, with explicit involvement in data migration and mapping into the new SAP S/4 HANA system.
Operational integrations included connection to reporting feeds used for store level transaction tracking, coordination with IT to develop an Eftpos sales tracking report for cash management, and data migration activities from prior systems into SAP S/4 HANA. The scope of coverage encompassed corporate finance, tax and treasury functions, store finance reporting across Australia, and statutory reporting processes used by auditors.
Governance and process changes were led through finance business partnering and policy implementation, including development of a quarterly cost centre P&L reporting template with variance commentary, support for preparation of statutory notes and disclosures, and assistance with income tax and BAS filings. Audit support and the introduction of controls around accruals and intercompany flows were documented as part of the SAP S/4 HANA rollout.
Explicit outcomes recorded during and after the implementation included advice and accounting treatment for gift cards aligned to AASB 15, the deployment of a cost centre reporting template, creation of an Eftpos sales report to improve cash forecasting and confirmation of compliance with RBA and ACCC guidelines on payment surcharge. Assistance with the SAP S/4 HANA data migration and master data mapping was a stated component of the program.

| Frontier Software | Legacy | Frontier Software iChris | Core HR | HCM | n/a | 2016 | 2016 |
In 2016, ALDI Australia implemented Frontier Software iChris to support Core HR across its Australian operations. The deployment was positioned to serve payroll and employee lifecycle management needs for a retailer operating almost 600 stores and 8 distribution centres across 6 states with approximately 17,000 employees, while the payroll team delivered fortnightly payroll for regional cohorts of 1,700 plus employees.
Frontier Software iChris was configured to manage core employee master data and to support payroll processing workflows, onboarding and terminations, long service leave calculations, and superannuation administration. The implementation emphasized capabilities common to Core HR systems, including award and Enterprise Agreement interpretation support, maintenance of employee records, preparation of employment contracts and letters, and a centralized payroll inbox for case and query management.
Operational integrations included time and attendance systems to feed hours and leave into payroll calculations, along with payroll related processes for PAYG tax, authorised payroll deductions, parental leave payments, and monthly reporting and remittance. The system was aligned to ALDI Australia payroll cadence and regional payroll delivery, supporting fortnightly pay runs and the operational needs of the Payroll team in Minchinbury.
Governance was structured around the Payroll Team Leader as the operational owner for end to end delivery of Region Payroll, with defined responsibilities for compliance with labour laws and payroll legislation, escalation paths for complex award interpretation queries, and ongoing maintenance of employee records. The configuration supported standard Core HR functional workflows and established system stewardship within the payroll function without introducing external implementation partner references.

| ServiceChannel | Legacy | ServiceChannel | Facility Management | ERP Services and Operations | n/a | 2022 | 2022 |
In 2022 ALDI Australia deployed ServiceChannel, a cloud-based facilities maintenance platform, under the Facility Management category to standardize maintenance operations across its Real Estate and Facilities Management teams. The rollout was delivered as an end-to-end program emphasizing user training, stakeholder engagement, and cross-functional collaboration to support ALDI Stores Australia’s national store network.
The ServiceChannel implementation focused on configuring maintenance workflows and the work order lifecycle, establishing vendor engagement processes and centralized asset records, and embedding preventive maintenance scheduling and field service coordination consistent with Facility Management functional terminology. ServiceChannel was positioned as the operational system for maintenance request intake, dispatch and resolution, with pre- and post-implementation guides developed to codify processes and support user adoption.
Deployment governance used JIRA and Confluence for project tracking, issue resolution and knowledge management, and the project team resolved integration challenges during deployment to ensure on-time delivery and uninterrupted system functionality. The implementation also involved coordination with SAP Ariba activities for Real Estate during ALDI’s broader SAP rollout, aligning procurement and facilities workflows where required.
Operational rollout included post-implementation hyper care and designation of internal ServiceChannel subject matter experts to drive best practices and change management across Real Estate and Facilities teams. The program delivered improved maintenance workflows, higher user satisfaction and operational efficiency for users through hands-on training and ongoing support as stated by the project team.
