RightSizing SAP BW for HANA

Get started

Migrating SAP Business Warehouse (BW) to HANA without effective data

management is costly and time-consuming.

Our experienced SAP consultants will analyse your data to produce a

detailed management strategy to migrate SAP BW onto HANA.

Through the completion of our SAP BW data volume assessment, we will

identify data growth in InfoCube, DSO and PSA.

Identified data can be moved to NearLine Storage and heavily compressed. It

will remain accessible for reporting and audit purposes as required.

By streamlining your data, migrating to HANA becomes a more efficient, cost

effective process. In the long-term, storage costs are reduced and ongoing

data management ensures efficient use of SAP BW on HANA.

Our complimentary Proceed RightSizing HANA Assessment and Proceed

RightSizing HANA SAP BW Volume Assessment are the perfect place to start.

An experienced SAP data consultant will analyse your data to produce a

report outlining recommendations for rightsizing.

On Thursday, 14 April 2016, the European Parliament adopted the General

Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)

The GDPR comes into effect on 25 May 2018 and companies have until then

to become compliant.

SAP system users should be interested in what needs to be done to apply

the new EU data privacy laws to their SAP systems, in particular how to

handle your SAP data in accordance to the regulations.

The risks of non-compliance with GDPR

Not complying with the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) leads to

significant fines and compliance risks. The EU created two tiers of maximum

fines for companies violating the GDPR. The higher fine threshold is four

percent of an undertaking’s worldwide annual turnover or 20 million

euros, whichever is higher. The lower threshold fine is two percent of an

undertaking’s worldwide annual turnover or 10 million euros, whichever is

higher.

What is considered privacy relevant information?

There are many elements of personal information

Some examples are name, gender, age, date of birth, marital status,

citizenship, languages spoken, veteran status, disabled status, IP address

(some jurisdictions), business and personal addresses, phone numbers, email

addresses, internal identification numbers, credit card and bank account

numbers, government issued identification numbers (social security, drivers

license numbers, etc.) and identity verification information, etc.

It is important to remember business data elements can be considered

personal information as well.

“Personal data” is defined as “any information relating to an identified or

identifiable natural person”

How we can help

The supply of and need for data is greater than ever before. This abundance

of information, combined with technological advances, means that data

laws necessarily have to become more stringent to protect individuals

and promote confidence in how data is being used by businesses. Data

regulation compliance is an integral part of this. Data management

underpins Proceed’s approach to ensuring your SAP data is GDPR compliant,

using SAP ILM and other SAP best practice tools to regulate your SAP

personal data. Get in touch with Proceed to discuss how our experienced

SAP data and document management experts can help your organisation

navigate the transition to GDPR compliance. Or join one of our monthly

webinars to find out more on how to put your GDPR strategy for SAP data

into action.

SAP ILM GDPR Tools

The lifecycle of information (put under corporate control) can be managed

with SAP Information Lifecycle management (ILM). SAP ILM is currently

the only SAP tool to manage the lifecycle of SAP data and documents in a

controlled way using records management & retention policies.

Data destruction objects

For the controlled destruction of privacy relevant SAP data and documents,

SAP ILM offers so called data destruction objects. Alone in SAP module HCM

we find in excess of a 100 data destruction objects, and the SAP HCM data

destruction objects can (in most of the cases) be used without additional

SAP license implications.

Retention policy: manage the lifecycle of your data

Privacy relevant data should be managed in alignment with other legislation

based on retention rules. Other (overruling) legislation – e.g. tax regulation

– might require the preservation of privacy relevant data, blocking e.g. the

destruction of financial data containing privacy relevant data.

With SAP ILM we can harmonize this and apply specific policies for specific

types of SAP data.

Data destruction in SAP

Based on the defined retention rules in SAP ILM it is possible to comply with

the GDPR rule to destroy privacy relevant SAP data in a controlled way.

Data Logging

Data logging involves tracking who has requested data within the SAP

system, as well as what SAP data has been requested. This can go a long

way to preventing data breaches if users know that their activity is being

monitored

Data Masking

Another way to protect SAP data is through hiding or masking data fields by

default, giving only authorised users the ability to access unmasked data.
