The HR NOVA Transformation Guide for SAP SuccessFactors, H4S4, and Hybrid Scenarios

Countdown to 2027: Strategically mastering the end of SAP HCM maintenance

Time is running out: On December 31, 2027, standard maintenance for SAP ERP HCM will come to an end. For many organizations, this means one thing: act now rather than wait. Extended maintenance until 2030 is costly, and at the same time, new requirements such as cloud strategies, AI compliance, and modern employee experience are gaining urgency.

In parallel, SAP SuccessFactors, Employee Central Payroll, and H4S4 promise future-proof HR solutions. But which path is the right one? Which architecture best fits your requirements? And how can you successfully manage the transformation without disrupting ongoing operations — especially payroll?

Our e-book “Countdown 2027 – Strategically mastering the end of SAP HCM Maintenance” provides concise, hands-on insights and shows how to transform your HR IT landscape to be future-ready, compliant, and efficient.
