Earlier this year, SAP made it clear that its future is well and truly aligned with SAP S/4HANA; with the announcement of their commitment to support this platform until 2040. To assist and enable customers to make their transformative business transition to S/4HANA, SAP has also extended the maintenance timeframe for SAP Business Suite 7 until 2027 (and then optionally until 2030).
SAP BW/4HANA, the data warehouse counterpart to S/4HANA, has also had its maintenance schedule extended until 2040. By extension, the last version prior to BW/4HANA, SAP BW 7.5, has also had its mainstream maintenance extended to 2027 (with extended maintenance to 2030).
Classic versions of SAP BW prior to 7.5 will have their support expire on 31st December 2020, so with less than 5 months until this deadline – the time to act is now.
