Common S/4HANA ChallengesDepending on Implementation, S/4HANA can present several unique roadblocks• Need to gain alignment between business and IT stakeholders on prioritization of
this transformation• Growth is increasing the complexity and difficulty of managing our applications• Several SAP and non-SAP applications need to remain close to our stack• I am considering starting over with a new S/4HANA solution, but need to be able
to leverage some of my legacy custom code• We need to migrate to cloud while upgrading to S/4HANA• Even though I want to transform to an OpEx model, the unpredictable costs
associated with running S/4HANA in the cloud would create planning and cost management difficulties
