A view on Digital Transformation & S/4 HANA
© SQS Group Limited | Are you ‘fit’ for S/4 HANA? | Public | Version 1.0 | 10
Hasso Plattner (Chairman & co‐founder of SAP SE)“This is where the world is going, direct access from anywhere to any type of data, whether it’s a small piece of data or a small answer but a long algorithm to create that answer. The user doesn’t care about this.”
Dr. Wieland Schreiner (SAP EVP responsible for SAP S/4 HANA)“…strong innovation can drive business. Enterprises can now easily connect to people, devices, and business networks to deliver new value to their customers – the Internet of Things and Big Data become accessible to any business. Enterprises can dramatically simplify their processes and change them as needed to gain new efficiencies.”

Derek Prior, Duy D Nguyen, Massimo Pezzini:
• To be successful with SAP S/4 HANA, all CIOs and ERP leaders must address many issues, including application strategy, application integration strategy, software licensing, service provider experience and infrastructure options!
• Identify if and how S/4 HANA fits your postmodern ERP strategy, and update the strategy accordingly
• Evaluate the business impacts and benefits of S/4 HANA, and build these into a convincing business case
• Select expert consulting service providers
• Secure the necessary internal business and IT resources
• Build an implementation plan

The S/4 HANA Migration
Transitioning to S/4 HANA for existing SAP customers
© SQS Group Limited | Are you ‘fit’ for S/4 HANA? | Public | Version 1.0 | 15
What from existing solution can be moved into the S/4HANA?
e.g. On‐Premise ERP to the S/4HANA Cloud Edition (1611 / 1717 / …)
Following are the tiers/areas that are impacted straightaway!
• GUI (Graphical User Interface)
• Business Functionality: SAP standard (configured) and customized
• Database & Table Design
• Interfaces
A lot can be moved into the S/4 HANA!

Database
Two big changes!• Only on SAP HANA DB:
• Migrate to HANA DB, as soon as possible. Weigh the impact from DB size!• What is the ‘quality’ of your existing data? It’ll be accessed ‘Real Time’.
• Recommended to use ‘Information Steward’.• Data Model / Table design changes removing redundancies

Interfaces
• Most of the standard integration touch points are supported and are mentioned in the simplification list.
• Dependencies from the Middleware in‐use, plus SAP XI / PI / PO.• Use of PO is strongly recommended! Have to migrate from XI / PI to PO.• Who can perform this migration?
Following are the impact considerations:• Obsolete remote function calls• Changes at the Table or Field Level in S/4 HANA (e.g. Material Number length)

Business Case• Changes from your Innovation initiatives for survival & growth
• Create a system implementable business logic• Redesign of the business processes & end‐to‐end Process Scenarios
• Critical & Core versus Generic & Outsourceable
Impact assessment for S/4HANA migration• Which existing functionality is impacted & must be retained?• Which new features should be implemented (& enhanced, if needed)?• How to ensure the ‘changes’ are 100% perfectly implemented & tested E2E?• Is it going to be step upgrades or direct migration?
Roadmap for successful S/4HANA migration • Do you have ‘phases’ agreed between Business & IT teams?• Do you have expert team assembled (BAs, Process owners, Core team)?• De‐risk S/4HANA migration: When can you start the Impact Assessment health check?
