In all industries, customer behavior and knowledge has changed. Today, companies face well-informed customers that do their own research and compare providers before contacting a specific vendor. It is essential to offer prospective customers a shopping experience that includes an efficient and personalized online shop. It is possible in a modern e-commerce architecture to configure, for instance, individual components that will then be transferred to the respective ERP solution in the form of a specific production order. The component structure can be controlled in such a way that only matching parts can be combined with each other. Production order, purchase order and billing are processes that are docked to the ERP system. This example clearly shows that specific ‘Industry and Commerce 4.0’ scenarios can be implemented with the suitable IT solution.
These customers are already convinced of our expertise in the area of SAP Commerce Cloud:
SAP Commerce Cloud – the complete package
In addition to classic shop functionalities, the e-commerce solution from SAP provides functions for personalizing the online shop. Contents, offers and recommendations can be displayed individually on the basis of real-time information.
The Spartacus front-end framework ensures that content is optimally displayed for all end devices – regardless of whether the user uses a smartphone, tablet or desktop PC. With the Progressive Web Application Spartacus, back and front end are decoupled (keyword headless commerce) and therefore more powerful. In addition, applications can be flexibly integrated into the online shop through API connections.
SAP Commerce Cloud also supports omni-channel concepts, where online business and offline stores are seamlessly connected. Omni-channel processes play out their full strength, especially in the delivery and returns process.
To shorten the implementation time of Web shops, SAP provides so-called accelerators. These are industry-specific templates that can be used as the basis for building the online shop. They contain, for example, predefined functions and ready-made storefronts that already cover a large part of the requirements of a modern webshop.
The SAP solution CPQ (Configure Price Quote) can also be used in the SAP Commerce Cloud. Technically demanding configurations can thus be carried out easily and without errors. Product information, prices, and delivery dates are displayed in real time.
With the SAP Commerce Cloud platform, shop managers benefit from a customer-centric, modern and comprehensive solution that is also ideally integrated into the existing SAP landscape.

Top master data in e-commerce during the implementation with FIS
A successful e-commerce strategy starts with data quality. A permanent and profitable administration of different international shop installations requires an effective management of master data (e.g. prices, article data). High master data quality is an important pillar to fully exhaust the benefits of advanced shop systems, particularly when it comes to automation. Based on this master data, SAP Commerce Cloud helps you continuously generate sales opportunities and systematically increase your sales.
FIS provides you with a seamless SAP integration of your e-commerce software into your system landscape: Individual prices, discount groups, condition agreements as well as delivery dates and availabilities, for instance, are transferred between the applications without any problems. While SAP Commerce Cloud is able to centrally manage data (PCM), FIS provides seamless integration processes and, as a consequence, standardized master data and information in your Web shop and SAP system. During the implementation with FIS, you also benefit from the field-tested FIS/mpm SAP optimization for master data management, which makes master data maintenance particularly easy. It makes no difference whether you use SAP ERP, SAP S/4HANA, SAP Commerce on-premise or SAP Commerce in the cloud.
Exploding data silos USING SAP CX SUITE
Besides Commerce Cloud, SAP provides further intelligent software solutions in SAP CX Suite (formerly known as SAP C/4HANA Suite). The suite bundles applications for the marketing, sales and distribution, service and e-commerce departments. This means that SAP Commerce Cloud can be complemented step by step. Major advantage: All systems are integrated so that data is available across all departments and a 360-degree view of sales prospects and customers is possible.
As a result, SAP Marketing Cloud can be used to further personalize online shops. Through individual banner displays, for instance, users get personalized quotations that are based on their activities and meet their interests. Moreover, the user and transaction data collected in the shop can be used for targeted and automated marketing measures.
Online trading and sales and distribution can be combined by integrating SAP Sales Cloud. The sales employees are informed about activities in the online shop and can precisely track sales opportunities.
In addition, SAP Service Cloud can be used to offer perfect service to sales prospects and customers during and after the purchase. Service requests from the shop are directly transferred to the service solution. Here, ticketing, call center, technician planning etc. are managed.
Higher reach, better customer focus and consistent contents across all channels
As part of SAP Customer Experience (the former SAP C/4HANA), marketing, sales and IT directly benefit from the networked solution architecture of the CX components. SAP Commerce Cloud is the central pivotal point for more sales in the digital segment.
Uncomplicated and completely SAP-integrated – connection of online marketplaces
Online marketplaces are an important channel in modern e-commerce. Through activity on marketplaces such as eBay or Amazon, companies significantly increase their reach and visibility for potential customers. In this way, online marketplaces as sales channels open up new sales potential and create a clear competitive advantage.
With the FIS/TradeFlex application, the seamless connection of online marketplaces to the SAP system can be achieved conveniently and without own development effort. On the basis of the SAP Business Technology Platform and thus the powerful HANA database, sales can be realized quickly and served holistically via the marketplaces. The application makes it possible to manage all steps of the order-to-cash process as well as upstream and downstream activities in a single solution: from product placement, pricing and quantity structuring, order creation in ERP and synchronization of fulfillment and invoicing through to the payment process with automated assignment of invoices. The software can also be used to automatically process cancellations and the reversal of returns or credit notes.
Thanks to the deep integration into the SAP system, the connection of online marketplaces with FIS/TradeFlex is uncomplicated and convenient and significantly increases the efficiency of sales via the marketplaces through automated and integrated processes.
