bpExperts is proud to announce the latest Business Flows 2.0 (BF 2.0) release—a structured, SAP-aligned repository of business processes designed to support real-world SAP transformation initiatives.
This release delivers value in two distinct ways. It enhances the Generic Industry version with improved structures and updated content, and it introduces a new Process Industry repository tailored specifically to the operational realities of process-driven organizations.
With Business Flows 2.0, organizations gain greater transparency across their process landscape, faster and more reliable process scoping, and actionable insights that accelerate SAP-driven transformations from the earliest phases. The BF 2.0 release is guided by a consistent set of principles applied across both the Generic and Process Industry content, ensuring that improvements are not isolated changes but part of a coherent overall design.
What Makes This Release Special
A defining element of this release is the enhanced Business Flows metamodel, which introduces industry-specific transformational drivers and business capabilities that are explicitly modeled and visible:
Carefully selected, industry-relevant end-to-end scenarios were defined for the Process Industry, focusing on real operational business cases rather than generic functional flows.
Industry-specific transformational drivers and business capabilities are explicitly represented, making the link between strategic objectives, processes, and execution transparent and actionable.
For the first time, SAP scope items, business capabilities, and SAP solutions are officially introduced and implemented together, ensuring that process content is directly aligned with what SAP solutions support in practice.

Process Industry Development Approach
As part of the BF 2.0 release, a dedicated Process Industry (PI) version has been introduced. It complements the Generic Business Flows by providing tailored structure and content for process-driven organizations and serves as a blueprint for future industry-specific releases.
SAP-Aligned Domain Coverage
The Process Industry repository spans eight SAP-aligned end-to-end domains:
Idea to Market
Plan to Fulfill
Lead to Cash
Source to Pay
Finance
Acquire to Decommission
Governance
Recruit to Retire
Objectives of the Process Industry Release
The objective of this release is to enable effective scoping, design, and implementation of SAP-aligned business flows by:
Establishing a comprehensive, industry-specific process repository
Deploying the content on SAP Signavio for immediate use in modeling and analysis
Supporting efficient mapping of real business cases to SAP solution capabilities
Highlighting process-industry-specific transformational drivers and business capabilities to support targeted business outcomes
Development Methodology
The Process Industry content was developed using a structured and reusable approach:
The Generic Business Flows served as a baseline to ensure architectural consistency
Industry-specific business cases (such as Sell-from-Stock, Third-Party Procurement, and Manufacturing Site operations) defined the primary scope
Industry-centric scoping focused on operational realities rather than functional decomposition
Validation against SAP solution capabilities ensured feasibility and alignment
Dedicated libraries of transformational drivers and business capabilities support measurable value realization
Repository Structure and Benefits
The Process Industry repository provides multiple perspectives to support navigation and analysis:
Industry View for selecting relevant content
Domain View aligned to SAP end-to-end domains
Industry-specific E2E scenarios and transformational drivers
Detailed E2E flows linked to business capabilities and SAP scope items
This enables organizations to:
Accelerate process scoping and design using predefined industry standards
Align business processes directly with SAP solution capabilities
Identify key transformational drivers and required business capabilities
Maintain a consistent, structured, and reusable process repository
Generic Industry Highlights
The Generic Industry version has also been significantly enhanced in this release, with improved domain structures, refined end-to-end scenarios, and stronger alignment with SAP solutions.
Key improvements include:
Introduction of Acquire to Decommission and Asset Management, completing the full asset lifecycle view
Structural realignment based on Integrated Business Planning principles
Streamlined end-to-end scenarios, removal of obsolete content, and introduction of new scenarios addressing regulatory, sustainability, workforce management, and subscription-based business models
This release incorporates SAP scope items version 2508, with extended coverage across logistics, procurement, asset management, finance, quality management, and human capital management. SAP Integrated Business Planning, SAP Ariba, and SAP SuccessFactors scope items are aligned where applicable.
Several domains remain under active review and will be further enhanced as part of planned redesigns scheduled for Q1 2026.
Overall Impact
Overall, this release strengthens the foundation of Business Flows 2.0 by improving structural consistency, expanding functional coverage, and ensuring closer alignment with current SAP solutions and best-practice operating models.
