Adstream To Implement SAP Business One

Solution from Sapphire selected to streamline operations and support global growth

Sapphire is to implement a 27 user SAP Business One solution at Adstream, the world's leading player in digital advertising technology services, that connects the global advertising community by streamlining the management, organisation, validation and distribution of multichannel content.

Tim Emly, Global Financial Controller at Adstream, explained the requirement for a new back office solution: “The continued growth of Adstream’s global footprint coupled with a lack of standardisation accounting packages in each country – along with the need for faster and more detailed management information, meant that a more substantial and agile financial software system was required to meet the demands of the business.”

He went on to say “We had been in touch with our Sapphire Account Manager for some time, he would meet with us and provide solution information as and when required. When we considered a new finance system he was the first person that came to mind.”

A sister company of Adstream, based in Australia, had been using SAP Business One and found the functionality and level of reporting impressive. They had successfully integrated SAP Business One with a core operating system also in use at Adstream, which gave Tim and the team confidence that integration of SAP Business One with that and other systems would go smoothly.

SAP Business One is an integrated, affordable business management application. It's a single system that can automate critical business operations, including finance, sales, purchasing, inventory, and manufacturing. And it provides accurate, up-to-the-minute views of business data. SAP Business One is a global solution with multi-currency and multi-lingual functionality that is easy to buy, quick to install, and easy to use.

“With SAP Business One we expect faster reporting; greater control and vision of overseas entities and two-way communication between our core operating and financial systems” stated Tim.

Ian Caswell, Managing Director at Sapphire concludes: “SAP Business One is a truly international solution; users around the world are able to view the same system in their own language, with their local currency. For global organisations such as Adstream it is a great solution as it can meet their needs now and as they continue to grow. We are delighted to be working with this innovative organisation and look forward to supporting them well into the future.”
