Not a poll but looking to get thoughts. We are about 70% deployed on SAP ECC. We know we need to get to S/4 in next 5-6 years. Do we:
1 - Stop deployments, upgrade the deployed to S/4, then finish deployments.
2 - Finish deployments and then upgrade all to S/4 (or could stay on ECC forever!).
3 - Stop deploying on ECC, finish deployments on S/4, then convert ECC over to S/4.
Option 1 & 2 would likely be Brown or Blue upgrade, but possible in option 2 to kick off Greenfield (redeploy) after finish of ECC deployments. Option 3 would likely by Green.
70% deployed is large parts of business, 30% remaining is mostly the cats and dogs.
Remaining 30% would likely take 2-3 years.
Option 3 puts us into new interface situation where we would have 3 ERPs for some time, Legacy, ECC and S/4, with the integration work throw away as end state is only S/4.
Legacy is old and lacks capability, but not on fire. Resources are retiring.
Current ECC is heavily customized with lots of capabilities build into the core.
We are a large multi-national business with significant manufacturing.
