High-quality customer data is the key to effective business process.
SAP S/4HANA is the next-generation successor to the SAP Business Suite platform enterprise resource planning (ERP) system. It is the flagship product of the SAP line, and SAP expects that its customers will all migrate to the S/4HANA platform soon.
Because ERP systems integrate and link all a company’s activities, the switch to SAP S/4HANA is an extensive project. Unlike previous versions of SAP systems, S/4HANA uses a proprietary HANA database developed by SAP. This means that migration to S/4HANA is not a typical IT project—it is a fundamental system change.
While the topic of ‘data migration’ seems to be only a small part of the whole, but it can become quite business-critical. Issues like unclean master data and company-specific code are considered the biggest challenges to S/4HANA migration. Organization that are well prepared will the migration by developing the right strategy and expertise will conduct a successful migration.
Why should you take the first steps now? SAP will discontinue support for its current ERP systems in the near future. Data must be provided in the correct format so that the migration runs smoothly. All subsequent business processes need high-quality data.
What is the SAP Business Partner all about? SAP Business Partner is a person, organization, group of persons, or group of organizations that a company has a business interest in. In the future, this newly created unit will form the bracket over accounts receivable and accounts payable. Whether the business partner acts as a customer and/or vendor is defined via the type/role assignment.
We bring your data into the correct form and structure of the new SAP business partner. At the same time, we ensure the necessary quality of the new central data set. The basis is a postal check of your addresses directly in the SAP Migration Cockpit. A duplicate check ensures tidy and uniform data records – usable for Excel tables, database tables or for migration from system to system. Prepared in this way, you can conveniently load the quality-optimized, consolidated, and consistent data into your new SAP S/4 HANA system.
