Innovation Highlights

Sales Order Management and Processing

Automatic creation of sales orders from unstructured
data
With this SAP Fiori app, you as an internal sales
representative can create sales orders from PDF files. After a
purchase order file in PDF format is uploaded, the system
automatically extracts data from the file and determines
master data (for example, the sold-to party) from the
extracted data. This data is saved in a sales order request,
which you can later convert into a sales order.

Capabilities
§ Automatic creation of sales orders with the new SAP Fiori
app "Create Sales Orders - Automated Extraction":
§ Extracting the relevant data from unstructured source
formats, such as PDF files, and translating it into sales
orders

Benefit
§ Automatic creation of sales orders
§ Reduced manual efforts

requisition and purchase order retrieval of delivery address information from the sales order
§ Continued extended warehouse management (EWM) use of BP standard addresses from the very beginning as the
ship-to addresses in outbound delivery; consideration of multiple and time-dependent addresses of the BP in order-
related outbound delivery processes in which the specific address to be used is already determined in the order;

addresses
§ Continued transportation-management consumption of BP information and locations that were created based on a
