S/4HANA Smart Set‑up

Transforming Your SAP Migration Journey

Current Solution: Warehouse Management
If we only knew then what we know now

We hear this all the time from companies who find themselves working sub-optimally in SAP due to decisions they made when they implemented SAP. These "unknown unknowns" are like icebergs – what's visible is just a fraction of the total challenge. This is referred to as the implementation trap.  When all the focus is on getting the transactions “up and running” and less on using the new system to drive transformative value into the business.

The migration to S/4HANA presents a unique opportunity to rewrite this narrative. Imagine going live in an S/4 environment where:

  • Transactional data is up-to-date, real-time, and reliable, empowering better decision-making
  • The master data aligns perfectly with your business operations, enabling efficiencies and automation
  • Planning  strategies and MRP/heuristic settings maximize throughput and improve inventory performance
  • Teams are equipped to leverage the full capabilities of the system, adding greater value to the company

SAP and S/4HANA Insights
A

The best approach for migrating master data to S/4HANA involves a thorough data cleansing process to ensure accuracy, consistency, and completeness of the data before migration, followed by mapping the data to the new system's data model. It's also critical to leverage SAP's Data Migration Cockpit and tools like LSMW (Legacy System Migration Workbench) to automate the transfer, validate data integrity, and conduct test migrations to minimize errors and ensure smooth transition to the new system.

Q

How do I optimize planning strategies and MRP settings in S/4HANA?

SAP and S/4HANA Insights

To optimize planning strategies and MRP settings in S/4HANA, it’s important to align planning strategies with business needs by configuring appropriate MRP types, lot sizing methods, and procurement types based on demand patterns and production capabilities. Additionally, fine-tuning MRP parameters like lead times, safety stock levels, and forecast settings helps ensure efficient material flow, reduce stockouts, and improve inventory turnover while balancing supply and demand.
