Conversion and migration to SAP S/4 HANA for holistic and integrated logistics processes.

SAP is now offering extended mainstream maintenance for the core applications of SAP Business Suite 7 - including SAP ERP ECC - until the end of 2027. They then have the opportunity to take advantage of optional extended maintenance until the end of 2030. We support our customers with the migration and consolidation. Customised, fast, predictable and affordable.

Future-proof digitalisation. With a powerful partner.

Utilise the main advantage of the real-time ERP suite with us in no time at all: Large volumes of data can be analysed flexibly within the memory in a matter of seconds. The result: a higher number of bookings, fewer interfaces and no redundant data. Thanks to its role-based, personalised Fiori interface, there are also no more media disruptions in S/4HANA. Everything is standardised, simple and efficient.

Those who switch in time avoid stress and utilise their future opportunities today. Together we can find the best way to achieve this: strategic overall concept, technical implementation or both - from the existing SAP ECC or with a new ERP solution - classic, agile or in a customised mix.

Our holistic approach

Optimal S/4HANA strategy

Every strategy starts with questions:

  • What can your path to S/4HANA look like?

  • What are the advantages of a greenfield approach and a brownfield approach - or would

  • you like to choose a middle ground?

  • Which preliminary projects are necessary and when should they ideally take place?

  • Which checks are needed at what time, and what do they mean?

  • Which new technologies should be learnt internally?

  • Which cloud solutions could be useful for you?

  • What effort and costs can be expected?

  • How will the warehouse be handled: in the new EWM (Basic/Advanced/Embedded/Decentralised) or using Stock Room Management?

S/4HANA preliminary projects, conversion and optimisation

We thoroughly analyse your existing SAP system and support you in all essential steps towards S/4HANA:

  • System Analysis: S/4 Readiness Check, Customer Code Check, Business Functions Check, and other assessment methods

  • Technical Support: HANA database upgrade, adaptation of custom developments

  • Performance Optimization: measures to ensure you get the maximum value out of your HANA system

In addition, we support you in implementing the Simplification List and relevant pre-projects:

  • Process Implementation: Business Partner, Warehouse-EWM, Stock Room Management, Transportation Management, and others

  • Pre-projects:

    • Customer-Vendor Integration

    • Transition to the New General Ledger

    • Introduction of New Asset Accounting

    • Adjustments for Foreign Trade processing

    • Migration to MIGO transactions instead of classical inventory postings

    • Adaptation to the discontinuation of Batch Input functionalities

We are also happy to set up your Fiori Apps, which stand out thanks to a unified user concept – including the development of any required UI5 apps. We think of everything: not only in theory, but also in practice. We prepare your transformation meticulously and support you throughout the entire process – from test planning and test execution all the way to go-live.

Frequently asked questions about the SAP S/4HANA conversion

What is an SAP S/4HANA migration and why is it so relevant for logistics?

SAP S/4HANA migration describes the switch from classic SAP ERP systems (e.g. ECC 6.0) to the modern SAP S/4HANA platform. SAP S/4HANA opens up new possibilities, particularly in logistics - i.e. in the areas of warehouse management, material flow and supply chain: Real-time data, automated processes, embedded EWM and modern user interfaces such as SAP Fiori ensure efficiency, transparency and future-proofing.

For companies that want to make their intralogistics fit for the future, the switch to SAP S/4HANA is not an IT project, but a strategic transformation process - which we at status C support with our extensive experience.

What advantages does SAP S/4HANA offer for warehouse logistics?

The switch to SAP S/4HANA brings numerous benefits, particularly in the area of warehouse and intralogistics:

  • Real-time availability of warehouse and transaction data thanks to the SAP HANA in-memory database

  • Seamless integration of SAP EWM (Extended Warehouse Management) - either as an embedded or decentralised solution

  • Simplified data models and intuitive SAP Fiori apps that make working at the terminal and on mobile devices easier

  • Greater process reliability and automation potential, especially for recurring warehouse processes such as order picking, replenishment control or goods receipt

  • Future-proof platform, ideal for cloud-based extensions and AI-supported processes

What is the difference between SAP S/4HANA Cloud and On-Premise - and which variant suits my logistics?

Both the SAP S/4HANA Cloud and the on-premise version offer advantages - it all depends on your requirements:

S/4HANA Cloud (Public Edition):

  • Advantages: Lower infrastructure costs, regular updates, fast go-live

  • Disadvantages: Limited customisation, predefined update cycles

S/4HANA On-Premise:

  • Advantages: Full control, more customising options, proven for complex intralogistics

  • Disadvantages: Higher operating costs, longer project durations

What challenges typically arise during the S/4HANA migration in logistics?

An S/4HANA migration in intralogistics brings with it special challenges:

  • Data migration & master data quality: Outdated or incorrect material and warehouse master data can cause problems.

  • Switch to Business Partners: Customers and suppliers are consolidated in S/4HANA under the "Business Partner" object.

  • Custom code & add-ons: Own developments must be checked, adapted or replaced.

  • Changed user interfaces: SAP GUI is gradually being replaced by Fiori interfaces - familiarisation is necessary.

status C offers structured procedures, proven templates and experienced consultants specialising in logistics.

How long does a migration project in logistics take?

The time frame depends heavily on the initial situation and must always be defined on the basis of a detailed, customised inventory. The customer's initial situation, the nature of the warehouse structure and many other factors have a considerable influence on the project timeframe. However, the following are rough guidelines:

  • 3-6 months for a brownfield approach with Embedded EWM

  • 6-12 months for a greenfield approach or complex warehouse processes

  • > 12 months for international rollout or system harmonisation

We work with you to develop a realistic roadmap - with a proof of concept or pilot warehouse as a preliminary stage if required.

What costs should I expect for an SAP S/4HANA logistics migration?

The costs vary greatly depending on the strategy (brownfield vs. greenfield), the complexity of the warehouse processes, the proportion of custom code and whether SAP EWM is already in use. A blanket statement is dubious - but: status C works in the SAP standard in over 90 % of cases and can also map very individual processes with minimal customising. This keeps your implementation costs low and your system low-maintenance.

Let's get in touch - we will prepare a customised, transparent offer based on your requirements.
