It is essential that buyers have an effective and efficient system support for monitoring contracts.

In SAP S/4 HANA, Sourcing and Contract Management consists of the following solution capabilities: Source Assignment, Operational Contract Management.

With S/4 HANA, automated and manual processes for source assignment to operational demands are supported. You can also monitor contracts in contract work list and get instant information about consumption, status, and validity.
