SAP IDES in the R/3 System represents a model company. It consists of an international group with subsidiaries in several countries. SAP IDES contains application data for diverse business scenarios that can be run in the SAP System. The business processes in the SAP IDES system are designed to replicate real-life business requirements, and have access to many practical characteristics. IDES uses easy-to-follow business scenarios to show you the comprehensive functions of the R/3 System. The focal point of IDES, however, is not the functionality itself, but the business processes and their integration.

What is SAP IDES

The system that contains a number of sample companies typifying relevant business processes. It is uncomplicated to exercise and has a range of master and transaction data, and is used for demos, online/classroom exercise, and presentations. Prospective clients use IDES to experiment and test software via Internet.

SAP IDES not only covers the Logistics area, but also Financials, and Human Resources. It demonstrates how the R/3 System is able to support practically all types of industries, from discrete production through to process industries, from engineering-to-order to repetitive manufacturing. However, SAP IDES is not a sector-oriented model company. The individual processes are based on practice-oriented data for sectors such as Retailing or Banking. The SAP IDES group manufactures products as diverse as elevators, motorcycles, and paints.

Transaction data are generated to ensure that the information systems in all areas have access to realistic evaluation data.
