Accelerating SAP Migrations with Panaya’s AI-Driven Code Correction

The move to SAP S/4HANA represents a significant step forward for organizations, offering streamlined operations, advanced analytics, and the ability to leverage cutting-edge technologies like AI and IoT. However, migrating legacy systems to SAP’s modern platforms like SAP S/4HANA is a complex and resource-intensive process, with custom code remediation standing out as one of the most challenging aspects. For businesses running highly customized SAP environments, addressing obsolete functions, preparing authorization roles, and ensuring code compatibility can be time-consuming and require skilled resources.

Challenges in SAP Code Remediation

Custom code often evolves over years of business growth, adapting to changing workflows. However, this flexibility comes with the following challenges when moving to platforms like SAP S/4HANA.

• Analyzing Code Issues: Businesses must identify outdated or incompatible customizations from a vast landscape of standard and custom objects.
• Correcting and Validating Code: Manual corrections can be time-consuming, error-prone, and may not align with SAP best practices.
• Testing and Ensuring Integration: Once code is corrected, it must be tested to ensure compatibility with other processes and systems.
• Authorization Role Adjustments: Preparing authorization roles for the new platform can require extensive manual effort, further slowing the progress.
