Turning Accounts Receivable Data into a Strategic Business Asset
Case study showing how Pratt Industries replaced spreadsheet AR reporting with SAP Analytics Cloud for automated, real-time receivables visibility and cash forecasting.
Pratt Industries migrated from manual spreadsheet-based accounts receivable processes to SAP Analytics Cloud integrated with SAP ERP and BPC. The implementation delivered automated data feeds, exception-based analysis, drill-down reporting, and self-service dashboards. Results include faster cash targeting forecasts, reduced past-due receivables, and improved days sales outstanding management.
