SAP-Consulting

As our main division, SAP Consulting forms the basis of the entire range of services offered by ABS GmbH. Our experienced consultants always find up-to-date realistic solutions that are optimally tailored to the situation in your company. Within a project, we usually assume the role of the technical implementation partner.

Consulting Services

Introduction of SAP systems, modules and functionalities from scratch

  • Realistic assessment of technical feasibility, scope and critical factors.
  • Support for the initial implementation of individual SAP systems (for example, SAP PI) as well as for the implementation of new modules, except for HR (for example, SAP ERP-PP) for releases ECC 6.0 and higher.
  • Support in the implementation of functionality enhancements (for example New General Ledger).

Support for roll-out projects and data migrations

  • Support for roll-outs of your existing SAP system into new subsidiaries and conceptual design of the incorporation of these subsidiaries into existing structures.
  • Technical migration of data from both SAP and non-SAP systems to your existing SAP system.
  • Implementation of regional legislative requirements on customs and tax handling and integration of specific processes into your existing system.

Implementation of SAP system upgrades/updates

  • Support for EHP and SPS upgrades, starting with the analysis of the necessary steps before the upgrade up to the actual technical implementation of the upgrade.

  • Compatibility check of your existing add-ons with the new EHP level and possible installation of add-on updates.
  • As of Netweaver 7.5 and SAP ERP 6.0 EHP 8, the use of Unicode is mandatory. We assist you with the conversion of your SAP system to Unicode.

In the area of S/4HANA migration, we support you in the conversion scenarios of new implementation (greenfield approach), system conversion (brownfield approach) and system landscape conversion (landscape transformation).
