As Part of a New Working Group SNP Helps Large Corporations Migrate to SAP S/4HANA

- Together with partners, SAP launched the working group "SAP S/4HANA Selective Data Transition Engagement," which aims to facilitate data migration to SAP S/4HANA for large SAP ERP customers.

- The working group adds a valid third option to the SAP S/4HANA Movement program.

Heidelberg, June 11, 2019 - SNP Schneider-Neureither & Partner SE, leading provider of software solutions and consulting services for IT transformation, is a founding partner of the working group "SAP S/4HANA Selective Data Transition Engagement" launched by SAP. The group helps companies transition to SAP S/4HANA if neither a pure new implementation nor a system conversion makes sense.

As part of the working group moderated by SAP, SNP will help corporations with approaches that combine characteristics of classical new implementations with those of system conversions. In the process, master data and balances are transferred to the SAP S/4HANA environment on the migration key date. It is also possible to transfer specific objects with all or part of their history.

The working group determines the changes to the corporate structure and business processes that make sense during data migration (so-called valid migration scenarios) following a selective approach that can be combined with the SAP Model Company. The working group will not develop any common new software for selective data migration and customers can continue to freely choose the products and services of the different partners: With SNP BLUEFIELD(TM), SNP offers a product and service portfolio supporting the approach for selective data migration.

'The SAP S/4HANA Selective Data Transition Engagement working group adds a necessary third option to our SAP S/4HANA Move program for scenarios where market requirements make a mere re-implementation or system conversion impossible," said Stefanie Kuebler, VP of Data Management and Landscape Transformation, SAP Digital Business Services. She adds: "Our customers can be confident that the members of this working group understand the opportunities and risks of a selective approach, have expertise in this area, continuously expand their knowledge and share project experiences.'

SNP will provide its own core team of at least five experts, invest knowledge and experience from 25 years in the project, and has high expectations: "We look forward to this collaboration and are convinced that this exchange of best practices at the highest level of knowledge with SAP will be of immense benefit to us, but above all to customers who are about to migrate to SAP S/4HANA," says Dr. Andreas Schneider-Neureither, CEO of SNP SE.
