INFORMATICS RTA reduces the number of steps and hours required at voestalpine AG
By complying with Section 82b of the Trade Regulation Act of 1994, our product INFORMATICS Rights & Terms Administration (RTA) offers additional value to your business. This section mandates that all owners of commercial facilities requiring a permit must have them inspected at specific intervals, either internally or by an external party. With INFORMATICS RTA, these inspections can be efficiently managed. Thanks to the §82b add-on, a report compliant with §82b can be quickly and easily generated from the data the company maintains in RTA.
INFORMATICS RTA is a powerful and user-friendly SAP add-on designed to help companies manage all legal regulations and the resulting obligations.
Maintenance activities throughout the fiscal year and the condition of the asset are key components of a report and are included in the asset report. The §82b add-on can process SO10 text modules, tables, graphics, and even complete Word documents, and insert them into the report at user-defined locations within the main template. Microsoft Word documents are created on the server side, although the Office suite does not need to be installed on the server. Integration with SAP ArchiveLink is also available. The configuration of §82b reports, the recording of operating facilities, the inclusion of templates, and the asset-specific information are handled in a separate program, the “Regelwerk.”
According to voestalpine AG
Mike Klaffenböck, Head of Regulatory Affairs at voestalpine, reports: “Until now, a separate §82b GewO self-assessment document had to be created annually for each of voestalpine’s 80 different operating units, with each document containing individually tailored content. INFORMATICS RTA has finally taken over this task, so for us, it’s a thing of the past.” In the past, due to the high manual effort involved, these self-assessment documents were created only once a year. “They weren’t created at all for operational subunits,” adds Gerald Maschek, application owner for decision management in software operations. He is pleased with the rapid retrieval of information thanks to the automated export of all data from INFORMATICS RTA. What’s particularly great is that it’s also applicable to operational subunits.

Marietta Atzmüller, Application Owner for Decision Management and Data Management, says: “After a one-time setup and importing the necessary information into the system, I run a batch process across all business units. This automatically generates and saves a complete report for each business unit.” Thanks to RTA, Ms. Atzmüller saves about 70 hours of work and receives everything in a single, §82b-compliant report.
