Time: 2.00 - 3.30pm AEST
Boost capability with aligned workflows, tools and AI solutions.
The 2026 User Group Training Series – “Getting Ready for Version 11” is designed to help SAP Business One customers prepare step by step, with focused, practical sessions spread across the year.
Each 1-hour session will dive into a key area of configuration or process design, so you can realise immediate improvements today while laying the groundwork for a smoother Version 11 upgrade.
Most mid-range ERP solutions provide a wealth of capability and SAP Business One arguably has the strongest integration foundation — any system’s efficiency, intelligence, and scalability often depend on the automation and extensions layered around it.
This session explores the practical, real-world tools that help you streamline operations, reduce manual work, improve data integrity, and enhance user experience — all while preparing for the next generation of SAP Business One in Version 11.
Key areas include:
- Optimising approvals, alerts, and workflow automation
- Enhancing system capability through leading add-ons (e.g. Boyum B1UP, Inventory optimisation tools, Warehouse Management (paper based to Device led) and AP automation solutions)
- Using integrations and the Service Layer for smarter connectivity
- Introducing AI tools for reporting, forecasting, and process automation
- Preparing your automation landscape for future SAP and partner innovations
Whether you're looking to simplify processes, reduce touchpoints, or adopt AI in a safe and practical way, this session helps you understand what to implement — and how to implement it well.
We look forward to seeing you at the session.
