SAP BPC Extension Dates to Know


Note: This post is no longer being updated. For the most current SAP BPC end-of-maintenance information, please refer to our updated article.

Many BPC users breathed a sigh of relief after SAP’s April 2020 announcement of mainstream maintenance being extended for most versions of BPC. BPC Maintenance extension gives companies more time to come up with a solid roadmap for transitioning to their next CPM solution.  If your company uses BPC it’s important to know the End of Maintenance (EOM) date of your product to help you make a plan.

*These maintenance extension dates are up-to-date as of December 8, 2020 and will be continually updated in case of any further changes

So, what does this mean for your company? It’s time to find a partner like SandPoint that can help you create a roadmap for replacing BPC. SandPoint can help you maximize the final few years of your BPC investment while creating a plan for your eventual transition to a replacement solution.
