Winshuttle and HANA & S/4HANA

Customers that are implementing or replacing their existing database supporting SAP ERP with a HANA database will be able to continue running Winshuttle based processes against this environment because Winshuttle connects to SAP ERP through the application layer and does not access the database directly at any time. As always, customers are recommended to perform exhaustive testing before the actual migration in order to identify any potential issues. Details of the Certification for Winshuttle for use with SAP ERP on HANA as the underlying database is contained here.

Customers that are implementing S/4HANA for the first time will need to leverage BAPIs or identify SAP GUI (Dynpro) transactions or Tables and structures that that are applicable to the processes that they wish to automate.

Customers that are migrating to S/4HANA have several options available to them depending on the method and functional area of migration.

In some instances legacy transactions will work but may need to be re-recorded.

For other cases where new functionality is introduced, new transactions may need to be recorded or BAPIs and SAP GUI (Dynpro) transactions or Tables and structures that are applicable to the processes would need to be identified and automated.

Note that it is not possible to record Fiori, Screen Persona or NWBC screens.
