Course Summary

Processes run the world and are at the center of every organization. But we all know how vulnerable manual processes or even manual parts within an end-to-end process can be. SAP Workflow Management enables you to digitize workflows, automate and extend business processes, manage decisions, gain end-to-end process visibility, and flexibly configure process variants, leveraging pre-built live process content packages.

In this course, you’ll get an introduction to SAP Workflow Management, learn how to create a workflow from scratch, configure a process template for reuse, enrich it with business rules, and have complete visibility during execution. You’ll also see how to benefit from predefined, live process content packages to accelerate process automation within your organization. In addition, learn how to extend and get insights into business workflows running in SAP S/4HANA or SAP ERP. The course is supplemented by a rich set of exercises that will help you improve and strengthen your learning.

After completing this course, you’ll be able to flexibly tailor your processes to your business needs with SAP Workflow Management.
