A Global Software, Inc. Case Study
Coca-Cola Bottling Co. Consolidated (CCBCC), a leading Coca-Cola bottler serving over 18 million consumers across 11 states, needed a simpler, more flexible way to pull dynamic data from their SAP ERP into Microsoft Excel and to build on‑the‑fly financial reports. They wanted faster, more accurate profit/loss analysis, easier month‑to‑month subtotaling, and the ability to perform detailed departmental allocations.
Global Software implemented Spreadsheet Server and Budget Excelerator (with Distribution Manager for automated report distribution), turning Excel into a tightly integrated analytical front end with drill‑down capability. The result was one‑click report distribution, increased accuracy and reporting flexibility, faster implementation and training, monthly time savings on income statements, and improved departmental allocations and forecasting.
