For a net new customer, there is a new option for hazardous substance management that may be significantly easier to deploy, depending on their specific requirements. In the component extension for SAP EHS Management, under the Risk Assessment application (EHS-MGM-RAS), see "managing chemicals for health and safety processes". Also, look under the analytical reporting section of EHS-MGM-RAS and you will see chemical product inventory reports.
For customers who have not deployed the Substance Database in the EHS-BD, this new functionality does not require that deployment. For customers who have already deployed it, there is a one-way street from the Substance Database to EHS-MGM-RAS.
