Upgrade Challenges

• How to manage modifications?

• How to plan and manage testing?

• Do I need additional systems? What would be the source for new

Server?

• What will be the impact on future development?

• How to freeze current development and production issues to isolate

them from the upgrade?

• How will the upgrade project be resourced through several monthswithout impacting business usual and other development projects?

• All the new SAP applications will be offered only based on Unicode.What are the implications, and how will these be handled in thetransition to upgrade SAP solutions?

• What implications do upgrades have on IT infrastructure such asprocessor, memory and storage capacity?

Typical Upgrade Timelines

• There are many variables which will ultimately affect the overall timeline – Number of development objects/customizations

 – Current productive version

 – Number of dedicated resources available – Status of test scripts

• Are they up to date? Can they be reused? – Amount of time required to procure incremental hardware, if required

 – Scope of the upgrade

 – Unicode Considerations

•  Average durations for a technical upgrade: – 3.1x to ECC 6.0: 8-10 months

 – 4.0b, 4.5b, to ECC 6.0: 6-8 months – 4.6c to ECC 6.0: 3-6 months

 – 4.7, ECC 5.0 to ECC 6.0: 2-3 months
