Evoqua Water Technologies Success Story

Core requirements revolved around converting an Excel based model to a Financial Reporting system to manage continued growth. There was a significant need for automated and standardized management and external reporting.

The business problem

Evoqua was looking for a more intuitive financial reporting with consistent results in a more controlled and auditable environment. They required visibility to detailed transactions within data warehouse and SAP. Additionally, they also needed to automate reconciliation between both modules (GLCPA and COPA) of SAP.

“Evoqua implemented OneStream XF for financial consolidation, reporting, budgeting and forecasting,” says Rahul Nanavati, Director of Financial Systems at Evoqua. “We were able to leverage the consolidation functionality to automate intercompany eliminations in all hierarchies, currency translation and cash flow reporting. We also leveraged the core budget and forecast capabilities to perform forecasts at detailed profit center and cost center levels. Management and external reporting is now standardized with executive dashboards and Guided Reporting as well as our monthly financial reporting book.”

OneStream XF SAP Connector

“By automating SAP feeds using connectors with drill back capabilities users can now have visibility to detailed transactions within SAP via this reporting tool, something we simply could not accomplish in our previous environment,” says Nanavati. “OneStream XF delivers more detailed reporting and analytics in one unified product and application.”

Financial consolidation and reporting results

Owned by Corporate Finance, OneStream delivers powerful management and ad hoc reporting for corporate HQ and business users. OneStream XF gave Evoqua the flexibility and auditability for managing financial reporting integration of acquisitions.
