E.ON SE introduces mpmX in purchase-to-Pay

In search of a powerful solution for the analysis of actual processes in the area of purchasing and accounts payable, E.ON has chosen mpmX. Besides the certified connectivity to SAP® and powerful In-Memory Data Management based on the integrated Qlik® technology, the fulfillment of the following objectives was crucial:

• Flexible creation of relevant process key figures and required risk indicators
• Automated analysis of actual processes for critical process sequences (e.g. changes to bank accounts before and after payments, goods receipt posting after invoice posting, functional separation conflicts, etc.)
• Marking of critical processes and events for quick analysis by auditors
• Simple self-service analyses based on governed data models and key figures for advanced questions and root cause analyses
• Reduction of false positives through associative analysis

mpmX was implemented after a joint pilot phase in which important requirements could be mapped within a few days.

Results

• Ensuring and complying with corporate governance, rapid identification of possible compliance violations
• Full actual process transparency of purchasing processes (from purchase requisition to payment), across multiple company codes and purchasing organizations if required
• Automatic calculation and evaluation of risk indicators

By combining mpmX with the Business Intelligence functionalities of the Qlik® platform, the full power of Process Mining is harnessed.
