The challenges of SAP authorisations

Every SAP application company must align its SAP authorisation concept with internal and external compliance requirements. In addition, the SAP authorisation concept must be revised and adapted as part of the SAP S/4HANA implementation. Furthermore, digitalisation projects are technically and personnel-related demanding. Transition projects also harbour financial risks. The introduction of new technology such as SAP S/4HANA requires the right licences and contracts in line with the operating model (cloud & on-premise) at the best possible conditions.
