SAP On-premise end of life
If your organisation is using SAP On-premise for HR-related activities, you are likely aware of the announced end of life by 2027. Organisations face uncertainty regarding the best way to move towards a future payroll as it is a key process which comes with complexity in the time evaluation and payroll calculation. SAP offers a variety of possibilities each with their own pro’s and con’s. The options in a nutshell are:
- Move to SAP SuccessFactors and Employee Central Payroll which is SAP’s preferred option
- Lift and Shift your SAP HCM and Payroll set-up to S4/HANA
