AXS-Link for SAP



From the publisher website or publicity

AXS-Link for SAP™ is an integral part of the AXS-One Compliance Platform™.  Certified by SAP, AXS-Link for SAP is a cross-application interface providing R/3 business applications with archive and records management functionality. AXS-Link for SAP utilizes SAP ArchiveLink® to securely link the SAP R/3 Systems with optical and other archive storage systems. AXS-Link for SAP offers the ability to:

Integrate Seamlessly with Your Existing SAP Environment

AXS-Link for SAP has been successfully certified by SAP AG for SAP R/3 application archival.  AXS-Link for SAP utilizes the SAP ArchiveLink®, as well as SAP workflow and existing SAP security settings.  Access to archived documents and data utilizing AXS-Link for SAP is therefore transparent to the end users, delivering exceptional ease and fast implementation.

Integrate SAP data and documents with Compliance Strategy

A single, scalable archive enables SAP documents and data managed by AXS-Link for SAP to be stored with non-SAP documents and content (e-mail, instant messages, output from legacy systems, etc.) and managed to meet stringent compliance requirements such as Sarbanes-Oxley, Basel II and SEC 17a-4 or for corporate governance best practices.  Comprehensive cross-application records retention management, supervisory management, surveillance and search can be applied to all documents and data (SAP and non-SAP) and managed via a robust archive repository.

Support IRS compliance requirements

To be in compliance with IRS Revenue Procedure 98-25, SAP users must be able to create data extracts for external tax authority evaluations. The SAP Data Retention Tool, DART, allows these extracts to be created.  However, their size and number can create a significant management overhead.  AXS-Link for SAP works transparently with DART to store DART extracts as ASCII flat files, significantly reducing the overhead on disk space as well as providing easy access.  This reduces the time required to find, retrieve and ultimately destroy the files.

Optimize business processes

Leveraging the scalable, secure and integrated platform and optimizing usage of their archived documents, data and reports, AXS-One customers are able to develop customized applications such as bill presentment, e-delivery and customer and employee self service.

Improve SAP System Performance

AXS-Link for SAP ensures your SAP system performance and response times are always optimized.  By storing and managing documents and data in a secure, compliant archive rather than valuable SAP file system space and making them available to users in real time, AXS-Link for SAP significantly reduces administration overhead, backup/recovery time and optimizes system performance.

See the Whole Picture

SAP customers can use the process management capabilities from AXS-One to do more than simply archive data. The AXS-One Enterprise Content Manager supports compliance and governance processes, bill presentment and other transactional processes to increase operational efficiency.
