From SAP S/4HANA Finance

to SAP S/4HANA 3

• The transition to SAP S/4HANA does not require

the source system to already be on SAP HANA DB

• SAP S/4HANA Finance is the first offering under

the SAP S/4HANA product family

• The decision to go for SAP S/4HANA Finance

should be based on the business benefits,

but is not a mandatory prerequisite for any system

conversion

PlanningSize is important – Minimize source system size

Use SAP DVM: Data Volume Management Work Center in SAP Solution ManagerArchived data is still accessible after conversion; data conversion happens during access to archive

For System Conversion:

Focus on "relevant" tables

Trim down source

Archive data

Check data quality

Trim target operation

Consider data aging

Monitor data growth

Guidance on the activities customers need to complete before, during, and after the conversion to SAP S/4HANA.

https://blogs.sap.com/2016/10/31/simplification-list-sap-s4hana-1610



The simplification list serves three purposes:

Planning the actual system conversion

Reducing efforts during the actual conversion

by enabling individual simplification items to be dealt with in

advance for those customers intending to migrate in a future project

Implementing SAP S/4HANA-compliant strategic capabilities when

rolling out new capabilities to avoid rework on SAP S/4HANA

(relevant to, for example, customers who still need to finish major

rollouts prior to converting to SAP S/4HANA)

Customers are supported by:

Descriptions of the changes in the simplification list

Pre-checks to establish whether a customer is currently using the

changed solutions or technologies

Custom Code Migration Worklist content to support the customer in

adapting custom code for use with SAP S/4HANA, where required

Tools and guidelines on handling the necessary adaptations related

to these changes, for example, reports for automatically migrating

data to the new data model during the system conversion

~16%

~59%

~25%

Currently we have 290 simplification list items. They basically fall

into three categories:

Note: Based on our current project experience, on average 30-40

simplification items are ultimately relevant for a dedicated customer

Change of existing functionality: 16%

Example: Simplifications of data structure

(e.g. in Sales & Distribution)

Functionality not available within SAP

S/4HANA: 59%

Functional equivalent available in most cases

Example: FI-AR-CR Credit Management

Not the target architecture: 25%

Functionality still available

Example: Warehouse Management (WM)
