Today companies must take responsibility for recycling their products and comply with worldwide legislation. The SAP Recycling Administration application helps your organization meet regulatory reporting and documentation requirements, manage the recycling declaration and payment processes more efficiently, and reduce risk and cost of environmental reporting.

With SAP Recycling Administration, you can ensure compliance with worldwide legislation on packaging waste, batteries, and WEEE (waste electrical and electronic equipment). The application also helps you meet standards set by distributors – such as on packaging sustainability, so you can:

• Increase efficiency and minimize cost by centralizing regulatory knowledge, streamlining declaration management, and leveraging preconfigured templates that support more than 50 different compliance schemes.
• Improve data quality by accurately tracking quantity flows of packaging, covered products, and batteries in circulation.
• Maximize compliance control by accurately calculating product-related recycling fees, automatically displaying fees on billing documents, and generating timely declarations based on up-to-date compliance scheme information.
• Minimize rework by successfully passing audits based on the automatically generated documentation trails.
• Increase visibility of recycling cost by drilling down into cost bases and cross-product, cross-country management reporting.
• Gain advantage by proactively adopting upcoming packaging sustainability standards from distributors such as Wal-Mart.
