You can download the full report here. This industry derivative examines the differences in the financial close transformation priorities and strategies between respondent organizations from the industrial sector (which includes manufacturing, energy, natural resources, and agricultural organizations) and their peers.

The benchmark report reveals that most SAP organizations are taking or plan to take a phased approach to digital transformation across the finance function. This is reflected as the top overall driver of financial close transformation—the move to SAP S/4HANA as an opportunity to consolidate financial activities and/or modernize F&A functions. This is also the top driver of financial close transformation for finance and accounting (F&A) professionals in industrial organizations (69 percent) and represents a bigger priority relative to peers from other industries (43 percent).
