SAP 10Steps2S4:
The 10 steps to migrate to S/4HANA
Your key to successful S/4HANA migration and digital transformation
The migration from SAP ERP ECC to the latest version of S/4HANA is a significant step towards digitalisation and increased efficiency for many companies. With the 10Steps2S4HANA programme, SAP has developed a training offer and a roadmap that helps to make this transition smooth. We at 4brands Reply have once again successfully participated in the programme and were able to refresh our S/4HANA migration certificates (10Steps2S4 and 10Steps2S4PCE).
