Runbook Customer Round Table Highlights the New Era of Financial Process Flow

Dec. 6, 2010 - PRLog -- The Round Table was attended by representatives from leading global companies such as Procter & Gamble, O-I, Novartis, Deloitte, Roche, B.Braun, Heineken and Wärtsila. Following an introduction from Runbook’s CEO, Herman Heller, the participants were given an overview of Runbook’s product roadmap by Rob Leesberg, Runbook’s CTO and Director of Services and Development.

The event served as a forum to discuss current compliance challenges while outlining Runbook strategies to lead technology into the financial closing process of tomorrow. Customers were given the opportunity to share their financial closing issues with the Runbook expert team. They discussed how Runbook can best meet their changing financial requirements.

Participants were also provided with an insight into Runbook’s view on Financial Process Flow.  A financial process flow is the ability to define, build, execute, manage and report on workflows that support systems and operational processes. A Runbook financial process flow can cross corporate disciplines and interact with ERP systems and its applications, to process and support business functions.

Of particular interest to the participants was the renewed certification of Runbook 40 SP10 software by co-operating SAP team in Walldorf. Runbook is the certified standard SAP software technology used for closing and control integration in SAP.
