There have been multiple scenarios while it comes to SAP (ECC) ERP migration to SAP S4 HANA. SAP S4 HANA Migration It is important to understand customers current landscape and used functionalities and modules in the current SAP landscapesystem to determine the appropriate S4 HANA migration scenario.
Determination of migration scenario is so important that based on this understanding only scope Patrick Ewing USA Jersey , team size and project valuation (bidding value) can be determined. For example, there could be multiple phases (sub-projects) in one simple e.g. ECC6, EhP7 migration to S4 HANA 1709.
Identification of appropriate migration scenario would help you finalizing following things:
The magnitude of Work (Scope) Number of Project Phases Team Size Requirement Project Amount (Bid Amount) Mainly this article is for the sales team involved in approaching customers for SAP migration. I hope it helps them.
Note: This article is mainly for SAP consultantsmanagement who are market goers (Sales Team). Please get your basics strong before committing anything about S4 HANA Migration.
In this article Michael Jordan USA Jersey , we would be focusing on Scenario 6 and Scenario 7. Other Scenarios will be covered in future articles.
Note: This document is prepared considering that聽first, the聽migration will take place from ECC environment and required additional聽functionality would be activated in the migrated S4 HANA 1709 environment. With this, your customer would be in your hand.
Migrate to SAP's Next generation Business Tool - SAP S4HANA 聽SAP S4 HANA Migration Scenarios Note:聽A new scenario has been evolved in S4 HANA 1709 for customers who are already in SAP ERP with HANA1 (Suite on HANA) or S4 HANA with HANA1 (S4 HANA Finance 1503 Magic Johnson USA Jersey , 1605 and S4 HANA 1511, 1610) and want to migrate to S4 HANA 1709 (which is on HANA2). Migration has to be done in two phases:
Phase1: SAP ERP o HANA (Suite on HANA) to SAP ERP HANA2 (Suite on HANA2)
Phase2: S4 HANA with HANA1 (S4 HANA Finance 1503, 1605 and S4 HANA 1511 LeBron James USA Jersey , 1610) to S4 HANA 1709 (1709 is on HANA2)
S4 HANA Migration Concepts (Doc. Splitting and Parallel LedgerAccountingHANA2) Following points help you determining migration scenario with respect to scenario 6 and scenario 7:
There is no concept of 鈥楴ew GL or 鈥楥lassic GL鈥?in S4 HANA. New GL is not a pre-perquisite for migrating to S4 HANA, you can migrate to S4 HANA from classic GL. Migration from Classic GL to S4 HANA 1610 (1503, 1511 Larry Bird USA Jersey , 1605 and 1610) was possible, but subsequently, document splitting was not possible and due to this SAP recommendation was to activate first New GL (Ledger introduction and document splitting) and then migrate to S4 HANA. Migration from Classic GL (without activating to New GL) to S4 HANA 1709 is possible Kyrie Irving USA Jersey , additionally, now subsequent document splitting and ledger introduction is possible in S4 HANA 1709. This is the reason, now there is no need of doing a project for New GL activation in ECC environment. Need to keep in mind that there might be possible three separate projects for converting ECC on classic GL to S4 HANA with document splitting and parallel accounting (additional ledgers). Subsequent Ledger (Parallel Accounting) introduction was possible from SAP S4 HANA Finance SAP 1605 and S4 HANA 1610. A new scenario has been evolved in S4 HANA 1709 for customers who are already in SAP ERP with HANA1 (Suite on HANA) or S4 HANA with HANA1 (S4 HANA Finance 1503 Kyle Lowry USA Jersey , 1605 and S4 HANA 1511, 1610) and want to migrate to S4 HANA 1709 (which is on HANA2). Migration has to be done in two phases:
Project Phases for Migrating SAP ECC System to S4 HANA 1709 Considering there is one SAP ECC customer with classic GLs and he wants to move to S4 HANA 1709. He also wants to have functionality such as document splitting and parallel accounting (additional ledgers). SAP S4 HANA Migration.
