Gas extension – SAP S/4HANA Utilities extensions for meter-to-cash processes by PROLOGA
SAP-certified extension for SAP S/4HANA Utilities, designed to support and simplify international processes within energy data management for the gas sector.
Grid operators are responsible for the safe and reliable transportation of gas within their respective networks. This includes the measurement of gas quantities transported through various network points. A key task is the management and exchange of this measurement data with other market participants, such as upstream and downstream network operators, suppliers, and the market area manager.
Grid operators must allocate the transported quantities to the correct balancing groups and carry out billing processes, particularly for network usage. Challenges arise in the time series management of gas volumes and related metrics, which are critical for downstream processes such as data provision and energy calculation. Close coordination and alignment with other market partners are essential to ensure a smooth and efficient gas flow.
SAP S/4HANA Utilities extensions for meter-to-cash processes by PROLOGA offer comprehensive support for handling the complex tasks of the international gas industry. Seamlessly integrated into SAP S/4HANA for Utilities, this comprehensive solution is tailored to meet the specific needs of gas market participants.
Core processes are optimized—from technical quantity determination, essential for accurate balancing group settlement, to efficient collaboration with network partners. Through plausibility checks and a configurable process framework, the solution delivers full transparency across data and processes. These enhancements help reduce manual effort, minimize errors, and significantly boost operational efficiency.
