Essential

• ADM328

Recommended

• Experience with the Software Update Manager (SUM)

• SAP S/4HANA 2022
• SUM 2.0 SP 16

• System setup is not typical so timings and potential issues shall not be taken as typical
• The goal of this course is the preparing and performing of a downtime optimized conversion of an SAP S/4HANA conversion of an SAP ECC system from a system administrator point of view. In addition relevant aspects for project and test cycle planning are discussed.
• The training class uses SAP S/4HANA 2022 as target product version but the content of the class is applicable for conversions to SAP S/4HANA 2020 and above.
• The following are not covered in this course:
• A complete downtime-optimized Conversion run.
