SAP Strategic Enterprise Management Streamlines International Reporting

Overview As a global player, Henkel was quick to recognize the benefits of adopting the International Accounting Standards (IAS).

The solution has already born fruit; the group completed its 2002 IAS-based annual report in just over one month, two weeks earlier than in previous years.
