 Scale Integration in SAP

Integrate scales directly in SAP and control them out of the
SAP standard!

The SERKEM solution in detail

SAP Scale Integration

The weight of goods, materials, trucks etc. have to be easily determined and deposited in the ERP-System. For efficient processes, an optimal scale connection to the leading ERP- system is a basic condition. The automated processes reduce the effort for weighing significantly.

According to requirements and fields of application there are differences between scale types like vehicle scales, bagging scale, bulk scale, belt scale and platform scales.

With the SAP scale integration from SERKEM the scales or weight terminals from different manufacturers can be easily and effective connected to your SAP system.
