Protect marketability and automate product compliance
As a discrete manufacturer, are you still managing product compliance using manual processes?
While this approach may have worked initially, the growing number and complexity of today’s evolving
requirements necessitate a more sophisticated approach. What’s needed is a way to protect product
marketability while making compliance more effective and less costly.
How quickly can you verify that a design is compliant with
current and upcoming regulations in the markets where
you plan to sell it? As regulations change, do you know
which products need to be reevaluated and redesigned?
Can you avoid write-offs by flagging purchase orders that
contain materials with compliance risks? Can you quickly
generate accurate declarations for as-built configurations
when customers or regulators request them?
To address these issues, SAP offers proven solutions for
complying with many requirements, including Registration,
Evaluation, Authorization, and Restriction of Chemicals
(REACH), Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS),
and Substances of Concern in Products (SCIP). Because
our solutions natively integrate with SAP S/4HANA, you can
connect compliance processes with relevant master data
and design-to-operate processes for an integrated,
proactive approach to compliance.

Using SAP S/4HANA for product compliance, you can
quickly identify and understand compliance requirements
across your materials catalog. Because the solution is an
integrated part of SAP S/4HANA, you can automatically
compare your material master data against regulatory
requirements and customer-specific declaration lists.
You can generate a detailed analysis—down to the material
level—to see if a product, assembly, or component is
compliant or not.
The solution links component materials with vendor informa-
tion from your vendor master data so you can contact your
supply chain partners for missing component or material
information. Armed with information about the compliance
status of components and products, you can analyze current
and potential designs, innovate new products, and generate
accurate, complete compliance declarations for customers
and regulators.

Manage raw material specifications
SolutionObjectives Quick factsBenefits
The solution extends material master data to include basic
product and chemical information. Materials specialists
can maintain a list of raw material and finish specifications
and manage their release to design. Each basic material
specification includes details such as manufacturing and
performance attributes, environmental values, and industry-
specific classifications, all managed in a flexible, searchable
database.
Because the data model includes the chemical makeup of
raw materials, you can automatically assess compliance for
each material. Assigning raw materials to your designed
components enables instant compliance validation, mini-
mizing data collection with contract manufacturers. When
regulations or customer declaration requirements change,
you can instantly reassess your raw material specification
library to identify any impacted components and products.
You can even attach documents
directly to the basic material
specification, such as official
industry spec sheets.
