Each SAP BPC version has a specific end of maintenance date:
This means that after these dates, SAP will no longer provide regular updates, support, or fixes for SAP BPC. It’s crucial to plan your migration before this deadline to ensure continued support and system reliability.
Once SAP BPC reaches its end of maintenance, you will no longer receive updates or security patches, which could expose your system to risks. Additionally, support for troubleshooting issues will be limited. Migrating to a new system before this date ensures you continue to receive support and benefit from the latest features and security updates.
Migrating before the end of maintenance allows you to avoid potential risks associated with unsupported software. It also provides you with the opportunity to upgrade to more advanced solutions like SAP Analytics Cloud (SAC) or OneStream, which offer enhanced features, better integration, and improved performance. Early migration ensures a smooth transition and uninterrupted support.
While you could wait until closer to the end of maintenance, early migration has several advantages, including avoiding last-minute challenges, minimizing disruption, and allowing more time for thorough planning and customization. Migrating sooner gives you ample time to adapt to the new system and fully leverage its capabilities.
