Facilitating Migration from Legacy ERP to SAP S/4HANA
LeverX
Challenge
SAP S/4HANA migration projects demand a substantial investment of time and money, with a focus on minimizing downtime and maintaining productivity. One of the most critical and time-consuming areas is data
migration, especially if the source data comes from legacy systems. It requires significant planning and skilled resources for managing complex data transfer and development, ensuring data integrity, and compatibility with all involved systems. These challenges often lead to a strain on personnel, project delays, and cost overruns, and balancing these
factors is critical for a successful migration to S/4HANA.
Solution
The solution is to simplify data migration activities by using a unique combination of standard SAP tools such as SAP Migration Cockpit and DataLark, the data migration platform developed by LeverX. DataLark facilitates data extraction from SAP and non-SAP sources, data validation, transformation to the required format, and load to SAP S/4HANA Cloud, private or public edition. The solution doesn’t require development, integrates with the Migration Cockpit, and comes with pre built plugins and templates that can be easily adjusted to customer specifics.
Outcome
The primary business outcome is higher levels of automation for tasks like data extraction, transformation, loading, and reporting, as well as reducing manual effort and errors. The automation and efficiency minimize the need for manual labor, thereby reducing project time and costs. The ability to extract data from any non-SAP and SAP system across on-prem and cloud environments, including SAP S/4HANA Cloud, public edition, and seamless integration with standard SAP migration tools, provides a comprehensive data migration framework for a wide range of scenarios.
