Please find below a list of recommendations for known topics and challenges during this implementation phase.
-
Conduct both one-on-one and group workshops to discuss individual requirements as well as overlaps and dependencies between departments
-
Have a SAP Business One system available during the workshops to demonstrate how business requirements can be addressed by the system
-
Use client’s chart-of-accounts instead of creating a new chart-of-accounts to significantly reduce efforts for data migration and open balance reconciliation
-
Communicate and document that data migration includes only master data from legacy system to SAP Business One; if client wishes to migrate historical transaction data, defer to a separate project following the initial implementation
-
Ensure details of all requirements in Business Blueprint are documented and emphasize to client that even seemingly small changes to scope and/or requirements can have a significant impact on cost, resources, and timeline of the project
