SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud 2302 Update Overview
Time for the SAP S/4HANA public cloud 2302 release update in detail:
I have taken the time to pull together some content relating to the SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud 2302 release with all the relevant videos listed below.
Firstly I’m a major SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud advocate.
Let me explain why, 30+ years designing and implementing SAP ERP and S/4HANA is as good as it gets, and the Public Cloud edition is more than just an entry level ERP, its so much more.
I constantly state SAP is not tech, it’s a fully formed best of breed end to end Business Target Operating Model, encompassing people, business models, process, controls, digital and data.
In 2022 SAP joined in Alliance with McKinsey, to work together to further refine and align the SAP target operating model offered across a number of Industry sectors. To do this SAP and McKinsey were going to validate how SAP was being used, consistent areas of localisation, innovation as well as factoring in SAP Partner solutions, they call this the “One Process Programme”. Plus inbuilt analytics, ML and RPA make SAP S/4HANA Public cloud the most powerful ERP SaaS solution in the ERP Universe…….
So when customers embrace SAP S/4HANA public cloud, they know they are getting a best of breed operating model that should be able to cope with the most complex process, integration and operational requirements. They also know that SAP is scalable with a three system landscape with the ability to support extension customisation, with best of breed infosec layers of defence built in. Together with a simplified IT support mode and 24/7 follow the sun SLA’s, SAP Public Cloud is an absolute winner.
I’m going to rattle through the areas that have been enhanced, which will give you an idea of the breadth and maturity of S/4HANA public Cloud and call out the stuff I really like.
Finally don’t forget, Where SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud goes, the S/4HANA 2023 release will follow.
