Greater added value and agility in your business processes

cenitCONNECT 
Advanced Process Management

Digitize SAP processes, relieve departments, and manage change securely – efficiently and transparently.

With cenitCONNECT Advanced Process Management (APM), you can make your business processes in SAP S/4HANA or SAP ERP 6.0 more efficient, transparent, and flexible. Departments can model workflows independently, automate routine tasks, and meet compliance requirements – without any IT effort.

APM is a design and runtime environment for controlling workflows directly in your SAP landscape. Whether approvals, change services, or master data creation – with APM, you can control complex processes easily, securely, and transparently. The preconfigured solution packages contain all the components you need to get your processes up and running quickly.

More flexibility, transparency, and automation for your SAP processes.

In many companies, daily business processes are still rigid and manual:

  • Changes must be implemented by IT
  • Departments wait for approvals
  • Routine tasks take up valuable time
  • There is no overview of status and responsibilities
  • Compliance requirements are checked manually

The result: long throughput times, error-prone processes, and a lack of transparency. cenitCONNECT APM addresses precisely these weaknesses—directly in SAP.

Configure instead of program – process management made easy

With cenitCONNECT APM, the certified SAP extension for S/4HANA and ERP 6.0, you can model workflows according to your requirements – without any programming. Processes can be adapted, tested, and optimized during ongoing operations. The solution integrates fully into SAP and combines flexibility with governance and compliance.

Core functions at a glance:

  • Graphical process modeling via SAP Fiori interfaces
  • Role-based task control and delegation
  • Automation of recurring activities
  • Configurable review and approval processes (e.g., dual control principle)
  • Transparent monitoring and reporting via dashboards and OData connection

From workflow to value creation

Business value first – APM combines process management with innovative strength

cenitCONNECT APM is more than just a workflow tool. Our solution helps you design processes that create real added value. Because every process, whether for product development or changing product data, processes, or structures, should contribute to value creation, not just generate costs. APM is therefore business-centric rather than IT-driven. The solution seamlessly integrates design and supply chain processes, supports agile collaboration, and becomes a control instrument for innovation – not just for compliance.

APM solution packages – clarity, benefits, and flexibility in one system

The APM solution packages offer you a clear structure and show at a glance which applications cenitCONNECT APM is particularly suitable for. Each package bundles preconfigured, tried-and-tested components that can be seamlessly integrated into your SAP system landscape – flexibly combinable, scalable, and tailored to your requirements.

Engineering Change Management (ECM)

Changes to products are part of everyday life – the key is to implement them quickly, securely, and traceably. With the ECM package, you can control the entire change process digitally – from the change request (ECR) to the change order (ECO) to the change notification (ECN). This allows you to maintain control over effort, quality, and deadlines – and create transparency across all parties involved. 

Your advantage: shorter throughput times, fewer errors, and audit-proof documentation.

Article Lifecycle Management (ALM)

With the ALM package, you can design the creation and maintenance of material master data in a simple, structured, and consistent manner. Preconfigured templates, role-based SAP field groups, and automated workflows ensure consistent data quality across all organizational units.

Your advantage: Clean material data, efficient collaboration, and stable process quality.

Operational strength. 
Strategic added value. 
Measurable success.

The high operational relevance of cenitCONNECT APM is evident in practice: Our solution addresses real challenges in development, procurement, production, and service—and ensures sustainable efficiency, transparency, and quality.

With a clear roadmap for further development and SAP certification, APM offers long-term investment security. The economic impact is measurable: shorter throughput times, lower error rates, and greater transparency along the entire value chain.
