Metalogenia S/4HANA Migration Case Study

This case study documents the migration of Metalogenia SA's SAP ECC ERP system to SAP S/4HANA 2021, facilitated by the system integrator Inetum and powered by Panaya. The project aimed to address significant functional changes impacting core business processes, including third-party management, integrations with CRMs, and adaptations in accounting practices. The migration process involved extensive custom code adaptation, multiple testing cycles, and a full simulation of the production conversion prior to going live. The implementation phase was managed using Panaya's platform, which enabled automated corrections of custom code, thereby simplifying the technical team's workload. The case study outlines key strategies that contributed to the project's success, such as addressing SAP functionality gaps, clearly defining project scope, and proactively managing risks. The results included a 70% reduction in project scope and over 50% of custom code adjustments completed automatically, demonstrating the effectiveness of the collaborative approach taken during the migration.
