New S/4HANA version 1809 Released to General Availability

FinancialTransformation-HotTipToday marks a key milestone in the evolution of S/4HANA with the release to general availability of SAP S/4HANA 1809.  As a co-innovation partner with SAP, Bramasol is pleased to offer our help and expertise on mapping out and fulfilling your journey to SAP S/4HANA.

S/4HANA embodies these four characteristics that are the basis for a digital core:

  1. An architecture that delivers a scalable foundation to transact at highest possible automation
  2. A system that supports and steers the business using real-time embedded analytics, simulation, prediction, and decision support to run live business
  3. An end-to-end experience that allows to be faster implemented, consumed, and adapted
  4. An open architecture to allow connectedness and adoption of micro-services

S/4HANA 1809 continues to build out these three ingredients to make the digital core intelligent:

  1. A digital age UX, or more precisely a conversational user interface and natural language interaction which allow us to target a hands-free ERP by 2020
  2. Automation of business processes: We strive for an automation of 50 % of all ERP business processes within the next three years. This automation mainly addresses companies´ bottom lines and helps saving costs.
  3. The next generation of business processes: While providing a streamlined architecture and technology that did not exist before, we want to target the top line increase by providing the infrastructure to completely rethink value creation and service tasks.
