Software and Services for Managing Risk and Compliance

SAP provides a complete business management platform to help you balance financial, legal, and operational exposure to risk. Our risk analysis environment enables you to identify, model, monitor, and report risks of business activities.

The framework also extends support to assist you in reducing the audit costs related to controlling incentive and payment agreements with your suppliers. SAP and Vistex have partnered to improve the transparency, accounting control, and efficiency of auditing chargeback and incentive payments and rebates.
