SAP S4HANA

•It is not an upgrade from ECC

•A conversion process needs to be adopted

From ECC 6 -Upgrade / Migration ?

•Not all processes are available.

•A strategy from SAP is in place for processes to be built in S4HANA

All processes in ECC 6 available in S4HANA ?

•Both options available (We expect on-promise version to be more common)

•There are differences between the cloud and on-premise offerings

•1511v is the latest on-premise release. 1603 is expected to be next release

On premise / Cloud ?

•Apps are not available for all the transactions

•They will be built / extended over the period

FIORI Apps availability


Focus Area (S4HANA 1511v) – SAP PP – key points

• PP SOP is intended as a bridge or interim solution, which can be used until IBP is available as part of SAP S/4HANA, on-premise edition 1511

PP SOP (Sales & Operations Planning)

• Subcontracting Simplified - 3 methods previously, now only 2. Need to have MRP areas for every subcontractor

• Storage location MRP stopped – Simplified (MRP on plant and MRP area level)

• Sourcing logic simplified -

MRP

• Interfaces (PFS-interface, LPO-interface, Icon interface, CBP interface, KK2/KK5 interface, etc) are not available – Instead Production Optimization Interface (POI) or MES integration to be used.

External interfaces

• Graphical planning board or Gantt chart, used for capacity load leveling and sequence planning is available, but not a target architecture (i.e. – its temporary)

Graphical Planning Table

• LIS is interim solution, and can be used until PP analytics in HANA has the required scope

Logistic Information System


Move to HANA

• Conduct proof of concepts

• Talk with other early adopters to understand the impact

• Validate the potential business benefits.

• After 2020, you will need to decide strategically whether you want to move to SAP S/4HANA before 2025 or "sweat" your SAP Business Suite asset on its current platform

• Use SAP ABAP Code Inspector tool to analyze your custom ABAP code

• Migration strategy and plan

• Integration strategy and plan

SAP Activate Methodology Overview (1/3)

What is SAP Activate? High level description.

SAP Activate is a methodology used in S/4 HANA and is a unique combination of SAP

Best Practices, Methodology, and SAP Guided Configuration delivered with a

reference solution.

SAP Activate is a successor of the ASAP and SAP Launch ( Cloud based Solution )

methodology. In other words, SAP Activate Methodology is designed to support a broad

coverage of SAP solutions starting with SAP S/4HANA.

Now, it is better to understand what the difference between these with SAP Activate is.

Compared to ASAP and Launch, SAP activate has improvements in the below areas:

Based on use of SAP Best Practices

Reduced project lifecycle – only 4 phases

Up to 10 key deliverables per phase, thus easier access to key guides and

accelerators

Blueprint activities replaced with solution validation

Agile implementation as a default.


SAP Activate Methodology Overview (2/3)• Prepare: Start with Best Practices by re-using knowledge assets and prebuild content

• Explore: Moving into pre assembly, rapid prototyping, solution validation workshops

and delta backlog.

• Realize: In this phase iterative delta scope implementation and E2E integration testing

• Deploy: This is the final phased where the roll out is done
