The performance of the contractor has the goal to implement the approval workflows generated out of SAP Deduction & Dispute solution so that they reach the appropriate approvers. Once approved the approval should also be converted in a pdf file and get attached to the dispute case in SAP. The challenge is that most of the approvers do not have access to SAP Horizon systems and as they are primarily from sales organization they mostly do not work in their desktops. Hence the solution needs to be compatible with the mobile devices. 

The external party will be completely responsible to implement the approval workflow in SAP Cloud Platform and facilitating integration for to & from communication with SAP Horizon systems. This includes file transfer in various formats in both directions.
