In 2022, Dow implemented SAP S/4 HANA as its ERP Financial platform, replacing SAP ERP ECC 6.0. The engagement centered on establishing a single SAP S/4 HANA core to manage transactional finance and materials processes across procurement, inventory, and accounting functions.
Implementation emphasis included SAP S/4 HANA Materials Management, with configuration of material master governance, procurement to pay workflows, inventory valuation logic, and goods movement transaction handling. The deployment aligned Materials Management capabilities with finance ledgers and cost accounting, preserving integrated inventory valuation and posting behaviors within the SAP S/4 HANA environment.
The technical architecture adopted the SAP S/4 HANA application stack on the SAP HANA in memory database, consolidating data models and transactional tables to reduce reconciliation between procurement and financial postings. This architecture centralized master data for suppliers and materials inside SAP S/4 HANA, enabling a unified transactional and financial record of material flows.
Operational coverage targeted procurement, materials management, inventory control, and finance organizations, with process changes to material master governance, purchase order lifecycle controls, and receipt to invoice reconciliation. Governance workstreams focused on harmonizing master data rules and shift to S4 HANA native workflows to enforce consistent procure to pay and inventory accounting practices.
