Ensure Your SAP S/4HANA Compliance

Before the 2025 Deadline

As enterprise technology evolves, maintaining compatibility within your SAP S/4HANA systems is more critical than ever.

Early adopters of SAP S/4HANA have benefited from Compatibility Use Rights, allowing them to continue using legacy SAP ECC ERP application code. However, these rights are set to expire on December 31, 2025.

For SAP S/4HANA systems under a RISE with SAP agreement, the Compatibility Pack use right will expire Dec 31, 2030. 

What this Means for Your Business?

The expiration of Compatibility Use Rights is a legal deadline. While it does not indicate an end of support, continuing to use these functionalities beyond the deadline will no longer be legally compliant.

Businesses must take action now to ensure they remain aligned with SAP’s current offerings.

Your Trusted Partner in Compliance

To support SAP users in this transition, NTT DATA Business Solutions is offering new customers a complimentary service to identify potential risks associated with Compatibility Packages in their S/4HANA environment.

This essential service will help ensure that your SAP deployment remains legally compliant and functionally optimised.
