| Microsoft | Legacy | Microsoft Dynamics AX | ERP Financial | ERP | n/a | 2013 | 2013 |
In 2013 Pandora implemented Microsoft Dynamics AX as its ERP Financial system. Microsoft Dynamics AX was deployed to centralize finance and accounting operations across the retail group, consolidating core financial ledgers, accounts payable, accounts receivable and statutory reporting within a Microsoft application stack.
The Microsoft Dynamics AX deployment operated alongside Pandora’s Microsoft Dynamics CRM environment, which functions as the company’s internal one stop shop for account information. Microsoft Dynamics CRM is integrated into both Pandora’s Microsoft Dynamics GP system and its Microsoft Azure Retailer portal, and it provides Consumer Affairs, Customer Service, Marketing, Sales and Visual Merchandizing teams with shared account data while granting franchisees portal access.
Functional configuration for Microsoft Dynamics AX focused on standard ERP Financial capabilities, including general ledger control, multi currency accounting, procurement processes and financial close workflows, aligned to retail transaction flows. Operational coverage targeted the central finance organization and its interfaces to commercial teams, enabling consistent financial treatment of CRM driven account and franchisee records.
Governance emphasized cross functional data ownership between finance and commercial stakeholders and alignment of master data between CRM and finance systems. The implementation was executed within Pandora’s Microsoft centric landscape to maintain cohesive identity, security and application management practices across ERP Financial and CRM environments.

| SAP | Legacy | SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central | Core HR | HCM | n/a | 2023 | 2023 |
In 2023, Pandora implemented SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central as part of a broader SAP SuccessFactors portfolio deployment. The Core HR implementation was scoped to harmonize global HR processes across Pandora's retail organization, which employs roughly 32,000 people worldwide and operates 6,500 points of sale including 2,500 concept stores.
The SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central deployment focused on establishing centralized core HR records, standardized hire to retire workflows, and common organization and position structures to support global talent management and workforce planning. Configuration emphasized global data models, role based access, and event driven HR actions to streamline hiring, onboarding, position changes, and development workflows.
Pandora's implementation anticipates integration with SAP S/4HANA Cloud to align workforce records with finance and revenue processes, a connection the company identified as enabling a new way to manage workforce and revenue models. Operational coverage included HR and People Technology teams, with direct downstream impact on store operations and regional HR hubs supporting retail locations.
Governance was centralized under the People Technology organization to harmonize processes and reduce reliance on multiple local HR applications, creating common process templates and release governance for successive country rollouts. The rollout model prioritized standard process configuration, global data governance, and staged adoption across regional HR teams.
Pandora positioned the SAP SuccessFactors portfolio as a driver of transformation, using SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central to improve efficiency in how the company hires, manages, and develops employees worldwide. The company plans future cloud to cloud integration with SAP S/4HANA Cloud to extend workforce management into commercial and revenue planning.

| ResNexus | Legacy | ResNexus Booking | Reservation and Booking Management | ERP Services and Operations | n/a | 2023 | 2023 |
In 2023 Pandora deployed ResNexus Booking on its public website to handle customer reservations. ResNexus Booking is used as the Reservation and Booking Management application to deliver web-based booking capability across Pandora's digital storefront.
The implementation focuses on an embedded web booking engine and availability calendar, supporting online reservation flows, customer booking portal screens, reservation lifecycle controls, and confirmation workflows consistent with Reservation and Booking Management platforms. Configuration work emphasized cataloging retail services and scheduling availability for storefront appointments and customer experiences, with front end embedding into Pandora's site to capture booking sessions and customer contact data.
Operational ownership is centered on digital commerce and retail operations teams, consolidating online reservations through the website as the primary customer-facing booking channel. ResNexus Booking therefore serves as the central Reservation and Booking Management system for Pandora's online appointment and reservation use cases.
