Trusted Shops sets new standards with SAP Business ByDesign
To ensure that Trusted Shops’ success story can continue, the company opted for SAP Business ByDesign and introduced the cloud-based ERP software together with us, the SAP partner all4cloud from Viernheim.
A leading Cologne-based company
sets standards
Customers who see the Trusted Shops seal of approval on an online store know: “I can shop safely here.” This is how Günay Edgü, Team Leader IT Project Management Finance, describes the seal of approval for secure online shopping throughout Europe.
In addition to Trusted Shops, there are other seals that advertise for store customers, but the company founded in Cologne in 1999 is the most successful in Europe. Over 30,000 certified stores advertise with the Trusted Shops logo, a small “e” in blue on a gold background. “Trusted Shops Guarantee” is written in black and white on the edge. In addition to the seal, there is now a whole range of products and services: a separate buyer protection procedure for customers and a system of customer ratings for online and offline stores. Affiliated retailers also receive assistance in protecting themselves against warnings.
Goals on the way to the cloud
This project focused in particular on efficient accounting automation.
Increased efficiency in accounting
The digitalization of accounting processes should increase efficiency and minimize time-consuming manual activities.
Scalability of the company's growth
Trusted Shops needed a solution that could keep pace with its growth and adapt flexibly to new market requirements.
Improvement of the accounts payable workflow
The aim was to optimize and automate the accounts payable process in order to act faster and more transparently.
This is how Trusted Shops proceeded

In contrast to other major ERP providers, SAP Business ByDesign automatically includes the German invoicing logic, which means a different horizon for posting and reporting. The important international accounting standard IFRS is also automatically supported in parallel.
