SAP Webinar Series: Successful Transition to IFRS on SAP

SAP Webinar Series: Successful Transition to IFRS on SAP

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has mandated that by 2014, publicly listed companies in the U.S. will need to transition their financial reports to the International Financial Reporting Standard (IFRS) from the current U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (U.S. GAAP) standard. For many, this impending transition is an “accounting” issue. However, this transition will have a significant impact on all operational areas outside of the finance department for all publicly listed enterprises.
