Objectives

The Webinar aims to focus on the following GMP compliance elements in the environment of SAP S/4HANA:

Moving from SAP ERP to SAP S/4HANA: More than a Release Upgrade?
Validation scope depending on different transition scenarios
Changes in the IT architecture and the impact on GMP compliance
SAP S/4HANA Cloud deployment versus GMP compliance
Functional changes in SAP S/4HANA with relevance for GMP compliance

Background

SAP S/4HANA is the latest ERP system from SAP SE. Using SAP S/4HANA as digital core enables companies to transform to an “Intelligent Enterprise”. The maintenance period for SAP ERP 6.0, which is the commonly used system in the Life Sciences Industry nowadays, will expire per end of 2025. Up to then, all affected companies will have to move to SAP S/4HANA as their new ERP system. On top of that, most of the customers must change the underlying database (if not already done), because SAP S/4HANA requires the in-memory database SAP HANA. In addition, SAP provides a completely new user interface. The well-known (but not necessarily loved) SAPGUI interface will be replaced with the SAP Fiori launchpad hosting tiles for running apps.

Will all these changes have an impact on the GMP compliance of SAP?

Target Group

The targeted audience of this Webinar are responsible managers from QC, QA and IT who are engaged in the transformation from SAP ERP to SAP S/4HANA. It especially addresses collaborators who are responsible for IT compliance, members of an SAP competence center but also employees from the business departments, who are acting as Information Manager combining business requirements and IT capabilities.
