Upgrading to New SAP Releases
"The times are changing, and more and more SAP customers are upgrading to SAP® ERP 6.0. smartShift for SAP makes it easier and faster for SAP customers and partners to transfer valuable custom developments to new environments, make them Unicode-compliant and thereby protect existing assets."
Many SAP customers carry out a combined upgrade (release upgrades and Unicode-conversions). Others use the opportunity to modernize and clean-up the complexity of custom-developed modifications that have grown with the system over time.
Whether upgrade, modernization or general clean-up: modification and custom developments that have grown over the years to add company-specific functions are bound to become an important topic. In many upgrade and modernization projects, they are the main cause of complexity and extensive manual efforts.
This is where smartShift for SAP comes in:
- The smartShift Analyzer represents a unique tool that can be used to analyze, quantify, and categorize customer-specific SAP sources and prepare them for automatic conversion. At the same time, the required effort can be determined precisely
- The tool is used to take a close look at modifications and custom developments with respect to their Unicode compliance, and provide a solid foundation for decision-making, as well as automating the entire process of Unicode-conversion for custom extensions and enhancements
- And this tool-based approach also enables us to accelerate and support upgrades to new SAP releases or carry out modernization measures by automatically converting ABAP semantics according to customer requirements; saving time and money
