This SAP event was all about digital transformation and highlighted various new cutting edge technologies developed by SAP and how real companies in Australia were actually using them. In Australia we are lucky to have so many SAP conferences. This one was free as well The presentations are a mixture of SAP staff and Customer Success Stories. Last year this event had a very HANA centric theme, this year there was a much broader scope and HANA hardy ever got a specific mention it was just always there in the background, enabling all the other new toys.

Welcome back to the SAP S4HANA Cloud use case series. After learning about machine learning in SAP S4HANA Cloud and the relevant dimensions and value levers in the. I was really looking forward to this, and was not disappointed. Tiger Woods Pga Tour 11 Pc. Circuit Wizard 2 Se here. Before I start I imagine if you have ever been to an SAP event you are familiar with the exhibition zone outside the lecture theatres, where 3rd party vendors give you pens and stuffed toys and try and sell you SAP add on products. This was no different, except that I was puzzled that the printed Exhibition Zone sign had been crudely crossed out, and the words Death Zone drawn over the top in crayon. All would become clear shortly when after the delegates were registered they were served breakfast in the zone. Breakfast. For breakfast, it was bacon and eggs. Nothing unusual about that, but almost straight away the delegates got a glimpse of the new sense of humour SAP has developed. This conference turned out to be a sort of trial run to see if practical jokes being played on the delegates in the Death Zone was funny or not. If the response was positive, this will be rolled out to SAPPHIRE and TECHED. The first joke was that sensors were hidden under one in twenty of the plates of bacon and eggs. If you picked up one the unlucky plates the sensor was triggered and a colony of Bullet Ants dropped onto your head. These ants are named after their painful sting. After the bite the victim feels like they have just been shot. In fact, the sting by a bullet ant is 3. The one inch sized bullet ant is also called as 2. Moreover, these were not normal Bullet Ants. These were bionic Bullet Ants, with jet packs, and lasers firing out of their eyes. No breakfast would be complete without raisin toast. The toast had sensors also, and once again picking up one of the unlucky 5 of the slices of toasts meant a panel slid down in the wall and a hoard of Bot Flies were blown into your face. The larvae of botflies are internal parasites of mammals. Unfortunately, the dangerous larvae can also live beneath a humans skin and cause horrible effects. The young female bot flies lay eggs within the skin of conference delegates. The larvae penetrate through the skin and live in subdermal zones of human skin for more than 6. The victim can feel the movement of larvae beneath their skin. Once larvae development is complete it eats its way out of the body. A serious problem at SAP conference is people falling asleep during the talks, so in order to wake up the delegates, we were old served the finest Coffee, one in fifteen laced with Cyanide. Cyanide is a deadly poison that affects the central nervous system CNS as well as the heart. Even if a small dose of cyanide enters the body, the poison will attack the blood stream and bind to the iron in the blood, thus prohibiting oxygen to flow through the body, resulting in death in minutes. Not everyone drinks coffee, so to maximise the potential victims Orange Juice was also on offer. This time there were grills in the ground by some of the orange juice dispensers which shot out Anthrax spores when you pressed the button to fill up your glass. Essentially a disease caused by bacteria, Anthrax must be inhaled to infect someone as it spreads by spores released into the air. Jeremy Robinson Facebook there. After becoming infected, a minor cold will quickly turn into massive respiratory failure as the Anthrax shuts down a persons breathing. The mortality rate from Anthrax is nearly 9. Off We Go By this point casualties were surprisingly low, and so the conference proper began. The first thing I noticed was the big picture on the wall. It showed all the acquired SAP companies Ariba, Hybris, Success Factors, Fieldglass and Concur. All the logos had been turned yellow and stylised so they all look the same. For the very first time this had been applied to Concur as well in some pictures and slides. There were also two new companies given equal billing with the others. They also had yellow logos in the same style. These are not acquired companies though well they might have been built out of bits of bolt on acquisitions, like a Frankensteins Monster but they were not existing companies that SAP acquired and kept the old name. These are SAP Leonardo for the Internet of Things and SAP Clea for Machine Learning. I asked Kenneth Williams and Sid James what they thought of the latter companies name and they said Carry On Clea. I hope that makes things Clea. This event comprises some keynote presentations where everybody attends, and some section where you split into one of three streams of golden liquid. To start off with the three streams to choose from were Finance and Accounting, Human Resources Management and Extreme Sports involving Abseiling into the Interior of a Volcano with explosives strapped to you whilst being attacked by Giant Golden Eagles and being shot at by Top Models with Machine Guns. I decided the most exciting sounding of the three was the Finance and Accounting stream, so that is the one I attended. Mirvac. The Mirvac group has many divisions, all involved with property of one sort or another. The most famous in Australia is Mirvac Homes. They dont use SAP but they have recently chosen SAP Ariba for their procurement. They have had two attempts at this, the first one was abandoned, but on the second attempt all worked well. The first attempt was marred by many things including the user interface and technical problems but mainly the ever popular change management issues within their own organisation. In any event the second time round none of that was a problem and they even noted how good Ariba support was. I was very happy to hear that, many years ago after Ariba had first been bought by SAP I found the support was not everything I could have hoped for. Clearly it has improved immeasurably. Lots of CFOs sit on Chairs. Many people feel that panel discussions at IT conferences are the end of the world as we know it. My CIO says when the chairs come out, I leave the room. At some events the organisers try to liven things up by having one of the chairs be an electric chair and killing the guest if they get an answer wrong, or having on the chairs be an ejector seat and hurling the occupant into the ceiling if they use any buzzwords like UBER or Hyper Connected. In this case the CFOs from various Australian companies Fairfax Media, Stockland, Jetstar and Sensis all sat on chairs and were asked questions. Most of them spoke with English or Irish accents I noted. Stockland are going through a big transformation moving from 1. IT systems down to 4 presumably four SAP related systems. The CFO made much of the so called Digital Boardroom whereby he could present to the rest of the board the financial figures in real time, as opposed to 6. He described this as dragging the company kicking and screaming out of the 1. The Jetstar CFO said that they have up to 1. Taken with the vast amount of activity on their web site that means they have more big data to analyse than they can shake a stick at.
