An upgrade to the latest release, SAP ECC(Enterprise central component)6.0, lands you on SAPu2019s new software-delivery roadmap. This is the u201Cgo-tou201D release for all customers currently on SAP R/3. From now on, all new functional enhancements to ERP through 2010 (when the next major synchronized release for SAP applications will take place) will be made available as optional enhancement packages for SAP ECC 6.0. Since all enhancements will be enterprise SOA-based, you must be on an enterprise SOA-enabled core (SAP ECC 6.0/SAP NetWeaver 7.0) to use them. The upgrade to SAP ECC 6.0 gets you to an enterprise SOA lifestyle; preparation for it is key. It also begins to highlight your needs for enterprise SOA components (for example, portals, middleware or service bus, development tools, and service repositories).

Must you upgrade to SAP ECC 6.0? Eventually, yes, but some customers are taking it in stages. Theyu2019re using SAP ECC 5.0. Some have upgraded to SAP R/3 4.7 as an interim solution:

Upgrading from R/3 4.6 to R/3 4.7 avoids extended maintenance fees for a while. Other reasons to go to R/3 4.7 are the ease of the upgrade (no new technology) and the ability to handle the migration with in-house staff (no new skills but additional time on the maintenance clock needed).

Upgrading to SAP ECC 5.0 instead of SAP ECC 6.0 is more typical. With SAP ECC 5.0, you donu2019t need to update to the Unicode database. If you upgrade to SAP ECC 6.0, you need to address the Unicode database conversion, so you have two upgrades to consider.

The complexity of the decision-making process stems from balancing your appetite for technical evolution and innovation with your ability to justify the migration. The SAP ECC 6.0 migration is the most challenging yet, but any release lower than SAP ECC 6.0 compromises your ability to use the enhancement packages and the full functionality of SAP NetWeaver.

Both R/3 4.7 and SAP ECC 5.0 are Unicode-compatible (but not Unicode-required), so you could upgrade ERP first and later upgrade the database to Unicode. But SAP skipped SAP ECC 5.0 for some industry solutions, so SAP ECC 6.0 became the de facto standard.

Thanks
