Are you migrating to HANA for right reasons? It’s important to have a strong rationale behind a move to SAP S/4HANA. While the functional scope may be similar to SAP ERP you’re already using, the underlying technology is way different with remarkable features and functionalities.

If you do decide to move forward with the migration, it’s important to create a clear roadmap for pre-migration data cleansing and consolidation, discard duplicate data to minimize costs, map all the critical data dependencies across workflows, prioritize data batches and test anticipated data flows and integrations before you migrate. Further, you can amplify the success of data migration process with readiness assessment that includes reviewing business processes, current and desired states, and quickly identifying and remediating any subsequent changes or mitigating any potential risks before you make a move.
