Why It Matters to Executives

For too many CFOs and COOs, SAP FICO becomes a fragmented system of workarounds, manual entries, and missed expectations. The result? Delayed closes, poor cost visibility, inflated overhead, and hidden profit leakage that drags down EBITDA, cash flow, and valuation. Reveal closes this gap—unlocking the financial clarity and operational discipline already sitting inside your SAP investment.

Common Business Challenges

Most finance teams don’t have a technology problem—they have a value realization problem:

  • Inconsistent or inaccurate product costing leads to margin erosion and poor pricing decisions.
  • Month-end close cycles are long, painful, and reliant on spreadsheets.
  • Overdue receivables and late payables reflect breakdowns in process alignment and trust in SAP data.
  • Shadow IT and third-party tools fragment reporting and create governance risk.
  • Financial data lacks integration with operational performance, masking cost-to-serve, profit by product, or regional performance insights.

What We Solve: Unlock Profit with Financial Precision

SAP FICO should be your system of record—and a source of strategic insight. But when master data is misaligned and business users don’t trust the system, it becomes just another tool to reconcile against Excel. Reveal fixes the root cause, not the symptoms. We realign people, process, and system use to:

  • Eliminate manual workarounds
  • Improve the integrity of financial and operational data
  • Restore SAP as the single source of truth
  • Create actionable visibility into product costs, overhead, and profitability

Business Benefits Executives Can Expect

When FICO is used as intended, the results are significant:

  • Shortened close cycles and improved external reporting speed and accuracy
  • Improved product costing visibility and variance tracking to inform pricing, sourcing, and investment decisions
  • Millions in working capital recovered through better receivables and payables management
  • Reduced reliance on shadow systems and spreadsheets—lowering compliance risk
  • Greater alignment between finance and operations, enabling proactive performance management
A $2.5B manufacturer partnered with Reveal to streamline FICO operations—cutting close time by 40% and recovering $12M in working capital by automating reporting and reducing overdue AR by $18M.

Reveal’s Approach: How It Works

We don’t reimplement SAP—we activate it. Through our oVo® methodology—Discover, Educate, Adopt, Sustain—Reveal diagnoses where and how your finance and controlling functions are leaking value:

  • Discover gaps in process, data, and adoption using your live SAP data
  • Educate your teams to think critically, trust the system, and break spreadsheet habits
  • Adopt system-driven processes that align master data, costing, and reporting structures
  • Sustain performance gains with continuous monitoring and digital education

The result? Your teams are empowered to own and improve financial processes—not work around them.

Why SAP—And Why Reveal

You already have the power. It’s built into SAP ECC and S/4HANA. What’s missing is disciplined use, trusted data, and adoption that aligns execution with strategic goals. Reveal bridges that gap. No new software. No custom code. Just measurable improvement from what you already own.

Q&A

Q

What is the best approach for migrating master data to S/4HANA?

SAP and S/4HANA Insights
A

The best approach for migrating master data to S/4HANA involves a thorough data cleansing process to ensure accuracy, consistency, and completeness of the data before migration, followed by mapping the data to the new system's data model. It's also critical to leverage SAP's Data Migration Cockpit and tools like LSMW (Legacy System Migration Workbench) to automate the transfer, validate data integrity, and conduct test migrations to minimize errors and ensure smooth transition to the new system.

Q

How do I optimize planning strategies and MRP settings in S/4HANA?

SAP and S/4HANA Insights
A

To optimize planning strategies and MRP settings in S/4HANA, it’s important to align planning strategies with business needs by configuring appropriate MRP types, lot sizing methods, and procurement types based on demand patterns and production capabilities. Additionally, fine-tuning MRP parameters like lead times, safety stock levels, and forecast settings helps ensure efficient material flow, reduce stockouts, and improve inventory turnover while balancing supply and demand.

Q

How do I measure and realize tangible ROI post-migration

SAP and S/4HANA Insights
A

To measure and realize tangible ROI post-migration, companies should track key performance indicators (KPIs) such as operational cost savings, reduced cycle times, improved productivity, and faster decision-making enabled by real-time data. Additionally, ROI can be realized by assessing improvements in customer satisfaction, inventory optimization, and increased revenue from enhanced agility and streamlined processes across departments.
