1 Demo Script Overview 1.1 Demo Overview This demo script outlines the highlights of SAP Business ByDesign Contract Management and shows you how to demo these capabilities along with their benefits and how to deliver proof of these value propositions in your demo. In this demo, we create a service request for a customer based on an existing contract. As next step the service will be performed, service data captured and execution confirmed. To complete the process, the completed work will be invoiced to the customer. SAP Contract Management offers strength over the competition through its complete sales and financial integration, allowing companies to have end-to-end documentation and analysis. The use of one common platform for all activities, postings, and analytics enable companies to more efficiently manage the business and eliminate redundant data entry and other issues associated with disparate systems. 1.2 Intended Audience SAP internal: Pre-Sales Executives, Pre-Sales Solution Advisors SAP external: CEO, CIO, Sales Management 1.3 Protagonists The main character of this demo story is Eddie Smoke, who takes the role of a sales and service representative. Eddie needs to be able to capture a customer s contractual agreement and then reference that contract through subsequent service execution. In addition, Eddie must be able to determine whether a service issue is covered under warranty and what provisions exist for handling the service agreement. 1.4 Business Pain Points Businesses often face the challenge of monitoring customer contracts to determine the covered products, duration, and service level agreements. In addition, they want to be able to monitor expiring contracts in order to proactively alert their customers and generate the opportunity for renewals.
