SAP Clean Core

SAP Clean Core is a strategy that aims to keep SAP systems lean and efficient by avoiding unnecessary adjustments and modifications. By focusing on standardized processes and approved interfaces, the system becomes less complex and easier to maintain. This not only facilitates the maintenance and management of the system, but also increases system stability and enables simpler and faster updates and upgrades.

An SAP Clean Core strategy is crucial for companies, as it allows the company to make better use of its resources by reducing IT costs and increasing the efficiency and productivity of business processes. This is achieved by significantly reducing maintenance costs and at the same time increasing the flexibility of the system. The increased flexibility enables faster adaptation to market changes and new business requirements, which strengthens the company's competitiveness. The simple installation of security updates ultimately also increases the general security of the system. In the long term, this leads to a more sustainable and efficient IT landscape.

The advantages of SAP Clean Core are manifold.

1. Significantly lower maintenance costs thanks to the reduction in customizations and in-house developments
2. Increased efficiency and reduced susceptibility to errors through the automation of business processes
3. Faster transaction times and a better user experience by cleaning up and optimizing the system and thus improving overall performance
   
   

Finally, SAP Clean Core increases the flexibility and scalability of the system, allowing your company to react more quickly to market changes.

SAP Clean Core plays a crucial role in the S/4HANA migration. By reducing modifications and optimizing custom code, the migration process is simplified and accelerated. This minimizes the risks and complexities associated with the migration. A clean and optimized system ensures that the new S/4HANA environment remains stable and performant, which in turn facilitates the implementation of new functions and processes and simplifies long-term maintenance. 

The implementation of SAP Clean Core comprises several key steps. First, a comprehensive inventory of current customizations and in-house developments is carried out. Unnecessary modifications are then identified and eliminated. The next step is to standardize business processes in order to reduce complexity. During implementation, it is important to ensure that approved interfaces and extension points are used in order to facilitate future adaptations. Finally, the system should be continuously monitored and optimized to ensure that it meets current and future requirements.

The implementation of SAP Clean Core can be associated with various challenges. One of the biggest challenges is identifying and cleaning up custom code that is no longer required, which is often time-consuming and complex. In addition, existing business processes need to be standardized, which can cause resistance among users. The integration of new technologies also requires careful planning and training. Finally, continuous monitoring and optimization of the system is necessary to ensure that it remains efficient and meets current requirements.

SAP Clean Core can significantly increase the security of your SAP systems by reducing the number of user-defined adaptations and using standardized (interface) technologies. In addition, a clean and standardized system makes it easier to apply security updates. This helps to minimize the risk of security breaches and improve the overall security and integrity of the system.

Getting started with SAP Clean Core begins with a comprehensive Clean Core Assessment by objective partner. This involves a thorough analysis of the current SAP landscape in order to identify and evaluate all existing customizations and in-house developments. Unnecessary modifications are then eliminated and business processes standardized. A clear plan for implementation and continuous optimization is crucial. By using the right tools and resources, the efficiency and effectiveness of the system can be maximized. objective partner's team of experts will ensure that the implementation runs smoothly and successfully.
