In this blog post, I am going to show you how our newly launched native application SAP Mobile Start will help you to manage your daily work more efficiently.
Finance managers play a crucial role in ensuring a company’s long-term financial health and strength. This includes planning, defining, tracking, and adjusting financial goals and KPIs. To do so, finance managers rely on accurate information in real time. The need for access to information is not limited to situations where they are in their office at their desk. They might find themselves in situations where a mobile device is the most efficient and best-suited device to look up information, complete minor tasks quickly, or communicate with coworkers on the go. Also, being informed about unforeseen or important business events such as upcoming liquidity issues, potential changes in business-relevant currency rates, expiring credit lines, or unexpected share-price developments is key. Moreover, finance managers often spend a lot of time handling approval and workflow processes from many different systems. All of this makes it difficult to focus on the most important goal – bringing the company forward.

It allows users to stay up to date on mobile devices and act immediately on critical business situations. The app offers integration with business applications, enabling higher productivity, and is a key asset to help ensure business continuity directly from mobile devices.
Furthermore, SAP Mobile Start offers a deep integration with native mobile device capabilities such as widgets, notifications or spotlight search.
