Get ready for SAP S/4 HANA

Seamless Migration for desired quality and functionality

SAP software has become a key component in many companies worldwide, regardless of their size. It allows them to automate internal processes and enables departments to communicate easily. Due to the complexity of such software implementations, thorough testing is crucial to make sure regulatory requirements are met and implemented workflows optimally support processes. With the mandatory migration to SAP S/4 HANA by 2027, many companies will need assistance to transition smoothly and efficiently.

As the scope of an SAP system expands, its interfaces become increasingly codependent and complex. Any performance issues in one part of the system can trigger a "butterfly effect," causing widespread inefficiencies, resource losses, and user dissatisfaction.

Testing the system before the initial release, or for new features and updates, bugs and defects can be detected as well as fixed. This process maintains the long-term quality of the SAP system, functioning and efficient business processes as well as satisfied users.

Our SAP experts can help set up your end-to-end testing framework and support in creating your test design, test cases and test management, whether you use waterfall or agile methods. This necessary framework set up for testing ensures the desired quality and usability while reducing the number of unnecessary tests.

FAQ

Common questions about SAP

What is SAP S/4HANA, and how does it differ from SAP ECC?

SAP S/4HANA is an integrated enterprise resource planning (ERP) system built on the SAP HANA in-memory database. It offers real-time processing, a simplified data model, improved user experience with SAP Fiori, and advanced analytics compared to SAP ECC (ERP Central Component). SAP ECC is the previous generation of SAP's ERP software. The migration to S/4HANA is not just an upgrade; it's a transformation to a more efficient and future-ready platform.

Why migrate to SAP S/4HANA?

The migration to SAP S/4HANA is driven by several factors: the need for improved performance through real-time analytics and transactions, simplified processes, a more intuitive user interface, and the need to prepare for future innovations with a platform that can seamlessly integrate with new technologies like AI, IoT, and machine learning. Additionally, SAP has announced the end of mainstream maintenance for SAP ECC, pushing organizations to move to S/4HANA.

What are the key challenges in migrating to SAP S/4HANA?

The migration to SAP S/4HANA presents challenges such as understanding the scope and impact of the transformation on business processes, data migration complexities, custom code adjustments, choosing between a greenfield (new implementation) or brownfield (conversion) approach, and ensuring user adoption through training and support. The process requires thorough planning, skilled resources, and often, the assistance of SAP migration experts.

How long does it take to migrate to SAP S/4HANA?

The duration of an SAP S/4HANA migration project varies significantly based on the size of the organization, the complexity of existing systems, the amount of custom code to be adapted, and whether the approach is greenfield or brownfield.

Can my current customizations and integrations be maintained after migrating to SAP S/4HANA?

Many customizations and integrations can be maintained, but they may require adaptation to fit the new data model and architecture of SAP S/4HANA. SAP provides tools and guidelines for analyzing and adapting custom code. However, one of the migration's goals is to leverage the simplified processes and innovations offered by S/4HANA, which might reduce the need for certain customizations. It's an opportunity to reassess and streamline business processes and integrations.
