Finance Transformation Across 55+ Company Codes at AutoZone

Working alongside Deloitte, Enterprise Solutions Lab led the Record-to-Report and integration track of AutoZone's SAP S/4HANA program through its full lifecycle — from Phase 0 to go-live — spanning 55+ company codes across the US, Mexico, and Brazil.

Project Overview

America's largest aftermarket auto-parts retailer modernized its finance platform on SAP S/4HANA. ESL owned the R2R design and its integration with Order-to-Cash, Procure-to-Pay, and tax — transforming GL, AP, AR, allocations, product costing, treasury, and consolidations under Clean Core principles.

55+ Company Codes

Configured every Record-to-Report process across 55+ company codes covering US, Mexico, and Brazil operations.

Clean Core Redesign

Business process redesign aligned to SAP Clean Core principles — minimizing custom development and maximizing standard capability for sustainable upgrades.

Treasury & Tax Integration

Aligned GL and payment structures with cash management and liquidity planning, and integrated OneSource for tax across all three countries.

How We Did It

Structured Delivery Governance

Authored and managed RICEFW tracking, testing scope, and business sign-offs across functional and technical streams into go-live.

Capital Project Architecture

Led SAP Project Systems design — WBS structures, budgeting, and settlement integrated with assets and treasury for traceable capital investment.

Cross-Stream Alignment

Partnered with PTP, OTC, plant maintenance, taxation, and finance stakeholders to keep integration seamless across the program.
