SAP S/4HANA Enterprise Management is the new ERP Suite from SAP. As such, it forms the digital core for innovation and business process optimisation. With SAP S/4HANA Enterprise Management, you have a modern, simplified SAP HANA-based application at your disposal. All SAP customers will need to migrate to SAP S/4HANA by the end of 2027, and Mercoline will offer support every step of the way.
What is S/4HANA?
What are the advantages of implementing S/4HANA Enterprise Management?
- Logistics: The general simplification of the data model generates greater logistics transparency regarding inventory and material flow, a reduction in warehouse and inventory reserves, and improved reaction capability for production orders in relation to the process sequences.
- Finances: Financial statements can be executed at any time (daily soft closing), and profit-and-loss accounts can be called up in real time, making it possible to react to disruptions early on and to optimise processes.

Migration to S/4HANA: A question of when, not if!
SAP distinguishes between three fundamental migration scenarios
- New implementation from scratch for new customers or for existing customers looking to make a new start (Greenfield approach). You start with a new installation of SAP S/4HANA and migrate your master and transaction data with the help of integrated data management and data quality tools.
- A system conversion as a 1:1 upgrade of an existing system (Brownfield approach). The SAP Solution Manager supports this conversion as transformation software.
- The consolidation of several SAP systems (e.g., from multiple businesses or locations) into a central system to simplify the system landscape.
