Thanks to ECC, any update in a specific area of business (like sales) triggers updates in related areas (say, manufacturing), allowing you to make data-driven decisions. Designed for medium and large-sized companies, ECC perfectly suits dozens of industries: manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, automotive, and more.
SAP ECC consists of several functional components – you can implement them in any combination, depending on your needs:
Finance and Controlling (FICO)
These two modules handle financial accounting, reporting, cost planning, and monitoring. These two components help you conveniently manage and store your financial data and transaction history and run financial analytics.
Sales and Distribution (SD)
Not only does this module help you manage sales and distribution, but it also handles customer returns, billing, and credit issuance.
Materials Management (MM)
The component is designed to manage the procurement of materials and services from suppliers and inventory processes.
Production Planning (PP)
The module helps you align demand with manufacturing capacity to plan product manufacturing, sales, and distribution effectively. It also allows you to manage the production process.
Quality Management (QM)
The module integrates procurement, production, sales, and equipment maintenance processes and helps to organize the quality control process.
Plant Maintenance (PM)
The component helps you monitor machines and functional locations to ensure they work correctly.
Customer Services (CS)
With this module, you can manage maintenance services for customer equipment.
Project System (PS)
A module for managing complex projects (like setting up a new manufacturing plant) or monitoring a plant's maintenance. It helps you allocate and plan all project costs and revenue correctly and within the budget.
Human Capital Management (HCM)
The module has all it takes for people management: payroll, time management, attendance and leave control, career development, travel, and more.
However, with all these functional modules, ECC still has some areas that are not perfectly covered – for example, you might not be satisfied with its capabilities for analytics. Another problem with ECC is that SAP has announced the end of ECC support in 2027, meaning that no updates will be available.
But we can help you with all that! With our extensive knowledge of SAP products, we help you integrate ECC with other SAP products and solutions, thus extending the functionality of your core system. For example, integration with SAP Analytics Cloud provides impressive analytics capabilities, including predictive analytics, artificial intelligence, and machine learning.
