Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between Process Runner modules?
Process Runner includes five integrated modules: Core automates all SAP modules with 1,900+ templates; GLSU specializes in financial transactions with validation for journal entries from 1 to 1,000s of lines; Excel Add-In provides the interface all modules use; Process Runner DB connects databases directly with SAP; Easy Workflow adds approval processes and governance controls. License individual modules or the complete platform.
How does Process Runner differ from other SAP automation tools?
Process Runner provides 1,900+ pre-built templates versus build-from-scratch approaches. You work from Excel with minimal learning curve. Easy Workflow is an add-on purchased separately. Process Runner DB connects databases directly with SAP. Most modules require zero backend installation. Pre-validation catches errors before posting to SAP.
Can I start with one module and expand later?
Yes. Most customers start with Core Process Runner for general SAP automation or GLSU for finance-specific needs. All modules share the same Excel interface, so expanding adds capabilities without needing to retrain users. Common path: start with Core for operations, add GLSU for finance, then add Easy Workflow for governance and Process Runner DB for external system integration.
What backend installation does Process Runner require?
Core Process Runner, Excel Add-In, Easy Workflow, and Process Runner DB require zero SAP backend installation. Everything runs client-side. Easy Workflow uses SQL Server as a backend, but the interface is completely Excel based. Only GLSU requires validation transports for advanced financial data checking. This minimal footprint eliminates BASIS dependency for most use cases.
How does Easy Workflow approval process work?
Easy Workflow lets users design approval processes directly in Excel. Create multi-step workflows for material master changes, vendor creation, or journal entry posting. Use flexible routing to assign approvers based on plant, cost center, or other criteria. Set deadline alerts and configure email notifications. Approvers receive emails and can approve or reject from email without logging into SAP.
What databases does Process Runner DB support?
Process Runner DB works with MS SQL, MS Access, SAP HANA, and other databases using standard drivers. Common scenarios: synchronize customer data from CRM systems, load inventory from warehouse management systems, push financial data from subsidiaries' local systems, or consolidate data from legacy applications before SAP migration.
How quickly can we implement Process Runner?
Most organizations see value in two to four weeks. Users download and install the Excel add-in themselves in minutes—SAP connectivity is automatic through the SAP GUI. Business users may need some configuration support, sometimes from IT. Process Runner deploys rapidly because it requires no backend SAP configuration or code development. PACE Inc. achieved six-month payback. Shell Inc. reduced implementation from three months to three to five days.
Can I buy GLSU or Process Runner DB without Process Runner Core?
Yes. Process Runner GLSU and Process Runner DB are both standalone products. GLSU is designed specifically for SAP finance automation and is SAP-certified for S/4HANA 2023 private cloud deployment. Process Runner DB is designed for database-to-SAP integration. Process Runner Core handles broader SAP automation across all modules. Many customers purchase one, two, or all three based on their needs. Easy Workflow is an add-on that requires Process Runner Core. Scheduler is included free with Process Runner Core and Process Runner DB.
