Our knowledge & expertise center with 100% focus on the Public Edition: s4hanaclouderp.info

Scheer IDS shares its experience with SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition on a dedicated website: s4hanaclouderp.info. It gives access to the concepts and best practices behind SAP's cloud ERP.

Johan Cruyff put it simply: "You only see it once you get it." The same is true for SAP Cloud ERP. The qualities of SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition, such as standardized processes, a clean core, and always staying current to adopt new innovations, become clear once you understand the ideas behind them. That is why we built s4hanaclouderp.info as a journey of discovery, based on what we learn in our projects every day.

The website s4hanaclouderp.info has four sections, each with its own purpose:

Explore the topics. Start with the big picture.

• What makes SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition different from the ERP you know?
• How does SAP Business Technology Platform extend it without touching the core?
• Which migration path fits your current system: a fresh start, a move from another ERP, or a step up from SAP ECC?
•  And what does the standard already offer your product- or service-oriented industry,

Each topic gives you a clear overview in a few minutes of reading.

Learn in the Knowledge Centers.

These Knowledge Centers go one level deeper. Two open Knowledge Bases explain the product and its industry features in detail: from architecture and system landscapes to finance, manufacturing, wholesale and retail processes. Every article starts with the answer, so you find what you need quickly. Short FAQs cover the questions that come up in almost every project.

Take it with you. Some insights are worth sharing with your colleagues. The Downloads section offers whitepapers and guides you can use internally: why a 100% public cloud approach works, how to choose between private and public edition, and what the standard delivers for automotive suppliers and manufacturers.

Talk to us. Every article is written or reviewed by the consultants who implement SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition every day. Meet the Experts shows you who they are. When you want to test what you have read against your own processes, they are one conversation away.

Explore the topics

The topic menus are built around the questions you ask when you first look at SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition. Each one is a starting point you can scan in a few minutes.

• SAP Cloud ERP covers the product itself: the concept, SAP GROW, ERP functionality, embedded Business AI, the Integration Suite, the options for customizations, and a page that sets twelve common myths against the facts.
• SAP Platform explains SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP): how you build, integrate and extend while the core stays clean.
• Migration Paths shows the route from where you are today: Greenfield, a non-SAP ERP, SAP Business ByDesign, SAP ECC on-premise, or a two-tier / hybrid setup.
• Industry Solutions translates the standard into your sector: manufacturing, finance, professional services, what is included in SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition, and how it connects to the wider SAP portfolio.

Learn in the Knowledge Centers

The Knowledge Centers are the core of the website. They consist of two Knowledge Bases, each organized by category, so you can go from a broad topic to a specific answer in two clicks.

The SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition Knowledge Base explains the product: its architecture, the SaaS operating model and system landscape, functional scope and best practices, localization, SAP BTP and extensibility, and embedded SAP Business AI including Joule.

The Industry Features Knowledge Base explains what the standard delivers per industry and process: from manufacturing and quality management to finance, wholesale, retail, consumer products, automotive suppliers, warehouse management and sustainability.

Each article starts with the answer and then goes into depth. Everything in the Knowledge Centers is open: no form, no registration.

Take it with you

Some content is meant to be shared internally, with a board, a steering committee or an IT team. For that, the Downloads section gathers the in-depth whitepapers and guides:

• Why we choose 100% Public Cloud: the case for a standardized, cloud-native ERP.
• Private vs Public: the edition decision in plain terms.
• Automotive on SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud: the proof for automotive suppliers.
• ReadySet Manufacturing: a packaged solution for manufacturers who want to go live on proven processes.

Register once to get the full PDF in hand. Everything you need to understand the topic stays open in the Knowledge Centers.

Where to start

The right entry point depends on your situation. If you are new to SAP, start with SAP Cloud ERP and SAP GROW, then read Why we choose 100% Public Cloud. If you run SAP ECC today, go to Migration Paths, SAP ECC On-Premise, and the Private vs Public whitepaper. If you want to know whether the standard fits your industry, open the Industry Features Knowledge Base and choose your sector.

Whichever route you take, you arrive at the first conversation with the right questions already answered, so that conversation focuses on your processes.
