One of the benefits
with using Spreadsheet
Server with SAP is we can
use it for reconciliations.
This can help us see if something
was manually put into the system
wrong. We can also do drill downs,
which allows us to
pin-point the exact document
or research the areas that can
be affected.
Spreadsheet Server
allows its users to work in
an environment they are
comfortable
in and that is Excel. Also, it
helps us to eliminate errors
from rekeying the data
from SAP. It is a tool that
you can be trained on and
begin using within one or
two days.

I logged into our system
and was able to run all the reports
and the distribution to all the cost
centers. We sent out about 450
emails during an hour in a hotel room,
and it went to all our corporate
managers, executives and everyone
knew I was out of town….but they still
got
their data while I was at
a conference!
