S/4HANA product roadmap vs S/4HANA releases

[Manuelli]

Hi

As per the OSS note 

• 3354958 - SAP S/4HANA Cloud, private edition and SAP S/4HANA on-premise - General Information on Sup...

SAP releases S/4HANA versions and feature packs according to the following schedule

• Major release (aka Initial Release Shipment, Feature Pack Stack 0): RTC in Q4, October every 2nd year
• Feature Package Stack 1: RTC in Q1, February every 2nd year
• Feature Package Stack 2: RTC in Q4, October every 2nd year
• Feature Package Stack 3: RTC in Q1, February every 2nd year

On the other hand, when I look at the S/4HANA Product roadmap, I see the innovations grouped by quarters (Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4).

I understand that 2025Q1 innovations will be delivered in FP1 or FP3 which is RTC on Feb and 2025Q3 in FP2 or new release in Oct, but, When and How are the innovations from 2024Q4 and 2025Q2 delivered? In what Feature Pack or release?

Thanks

Manuel

Would be nice if the roadmap eventually gets adjusted to the new release cycles... https://roadmaps.sap.com/board?PRODUCT=73555000100800004663&range=CURRENT-LAST#Q2%202025
