SAP S/4HANA Readiness Check
Why
Converting your SAP ERP 6.x system to SAP S/4HANA is not a trivial task and you know that. Your organization understands the value proposition for the next-generation business suite and wants to get an overview on the main implications of a system landscape conversion to SAP S/4HANA.
Besides of some pre-requisites like an already completed Unicode conversion, there are many topics that need to be analyzed prior to a SAP S/4HANA system conversion project. We built the SAP S/4HANA Readiness Check to get you an overview of the most important aspects such as:
- What about the
add-ons you have installed on your ERP, are they compatible?
- Which
Business Functions you run are affected by SAP S/4HANA?
- How big should your SAP HANA
Database be?
- Which
Transactions you run are affected by SAP S/4HANA?
- You have plenty of
custom code objects built on your system, are they going to work with S/4HANA?
What SAP
Fiori Apps are relevant to your users?
Getting answers for each for those questions can be very time consuming and involves many different tools, SAP Readiness Check facilitate your life as it provides a nice one-stop dashboard with details like the ones mentioned above. It is definitely a great tool for a first check and foundation for your system conversion planning.
