Excel4apps Accelerates Access to SAP Financials with GL Wand

Faster access to accurate data is a necessity for SAP users looking to accelerate creation of financial reports, monthly closes and other critical reporting processes. To expedite report development, many productivity-minded financial users have turned to GL Wand from Excel4apps, a provider of best-in-class Excel-based inquiry and reporting software that is an SAP Certified Integration application. At the SAP Financials 2012 event in Las Vegas, March 13-16, attendees can visit Excel4apps at Booth 470 to explore how GL Wand fosters efficient reporting and better data visibility using a direct link between SAP Financials and an Excel-based interface, without the need for a data warehouse, additional hardware or programming support.

"With GL Wand, users of SAP Financials access a software shortcut to the data they need and eliminate time-consuming steps, including manual exports of data and waiting on IT for query development," said Chris Meyer, Director Americas, Excel4apps. "Because GL Wand links directly with real-time SAP data, users have the latest, most accurate financial information at their fingertips in seconds, creating a tremendous time savings when reconciling a number of accounts. Also, the easy Excel-based interface allows users to quickly tailor report fields they need without multiple clicks."
