SAP Solution: S/4 Hana

It is well known that the majority of SAP users also use non-SAP systems in some way. Sophisticated SAP Basis automation platforms are able to integrate and manage these advantageously.

SAP has potential and the current altitude is high. It will require a great deal of skill on the part of the Supervisory Board and Executive Board to maintain this successful course. It lacks a unique selling point.

It is one of the most discussed topics in the SAP community: license costs for the SAP Cloud ERP Suite. SAP and the hyperscalers claim that cloud computing also brings savings for users. Statements by SAP CEO Christian Klein suggest otherwise.

With the migration to S/4 Hana, the German energy supplier Badenova has renewed its ERP system landscape. Selective data migration, separation of IS-U and ERP core and the introduction of new structures created the basis for modern, modular processes.

The IT service provider Adesso has successfully supported the energy group Uniper with the introduction of SAP S/4 Hana Utilities. Uniper is one of the first companies in the energy industry to work productively with the new platform in the "supplier" market role.

SAP is introducing a new “Migration and Modernization” program to help customers address the cost and scope issues associated with digital transformation.

In the current competition for skilled workers and market share, artificial intelligence can be a great support. In order for the technology to unfold its potential, it should be used in conjunction with automation.

The word sustainability can be translated in two interesting ways. Its meaning of being viable or maintainable in the long term has recently been strongly linked to environmental issues.

With the move to S/4 Hana, Swiss Post has implemented the SAP Billing and Revenue Innovation Management (BRIM) bulk billing solution in areas with high billing volumes to prepare for the future.

My annual house note from Salzburg from the Festival is this time inspired by the outstanding violinist and recording artist Patricia Kopatchinskaja and her album "What's Next Vivaldi?" in a quality far beyond any CD.

There are many challenges that SAP Basis and Infrastructure teams face. An SAP Basis system management suite with great automation functionality creates many benefits.
