GovERP Procure-to-Pay (P2P) Solution

The GovERP P2P value stream solution is hosted on S/4 HANA on Services Australia’s Private Azure cloud, however, can be copied and hosted on any equivalent cloud solution. Integrations have been built into GovERP FMIS and SAP SuccessFactors for the HCM design. However, integrations have not yet been built for other tools (e.g. integrations not built for Expense8, which was also part of the GovERP solution stack).  

Following is the high-level overview of the intended GovERP Procurement solution as it relates to the P2P value stream.  

Note, as at the time of writing this content, the above capabilities were not in production, and still partially in development. 

An existing Infosec Register Assessors Program (IRAP) report is in place and held by Services Australia.

Whole of Government Customisation and Configuration 

Customisation and configuration refer to specific enhancements made to the base products to understand the deviations from the standard ‘out-of-the-box’ configuration grouped into Workflows, Report, Interfaces, Conversions, Enhancements and Forms known as WRICEFs. Each WRICEF has been classified into the below scale of effort to maintain: 

• Low – Configuration changes only. 
• Medium – Development support required to adjust code (e.g. Business Add-in) and support enhancements. 
• High – Full development support required (e.g. solutions implemented via SAP note where code has been written 

The following provides a summary of these WRICEFs in P2P for a whole-of-government solution:
