SAP Archive System Migrations and Consolidations
Many companies today see the need for data splits or consolidation as part of mergers or acquisitions or just to optimize their IT landscape. At SolutionXchg, we believe migrating archival records shouldn’t be a lengthy and complex project. Or filled with so many business risks. For that reason we have worked hard to create a custom fit solution approach. It is the lowest risk, highest data availability solution for migrating SAP archives on the market today.
Preparing for an SAP HANA Migration Utilizing SAP Data Archiving
Is your organization planning on moving to SAP Business Suite on SAP HANA or to SAP S/4HANA? If the answer is yes, then you need to strongly consider implementing an SAP Data Archiving Strategy to reduce the total cost of ownership for these new in-memory systems. Additional benefits include: decreased downtime during migration, and minimized risk due to compliance with retention requirements. This session will cover the necessary steps of implementing an effective data archiving strategy to greatly reduce your overall database size utilizing a proven methodology.
Content Server Selection – In-The-Cloud or On-Premise?
Selecting an effective SAP Content Server solution is no small feat. Solutions range from adapted ECM solutions, servicing every aspect of the enterprise while also managing your SAP data to price effective point solutions that do only one thing well, but really well and that is SAP Archiving and Storage. We discuss the Ins and Outs of the solution, the selection process, the In-The-Cloud or On-Premise questions as well as service and migration aspects.
ECC Tax/Audit Extraction and Reporting — Strategies, Tactics and Options
Tax audits and year-end close activities can cause unnecessary headaches. This session will highlight the strategies, share the tactics and walk you through the options to ease the pain of extracting data from SAP ECC. Your take-aways will be how you can respond quickly and with little effort to external and internal audit requests.
Archive Access from QA/Production Copies w/o Replication
A new tool for a long lasting problem – the SolutionXchg ACC allows secure access to original PDFs and other documents from your production-copy SAP QA system. The ACC brokers requests to PROD AND QA repositories, giving testers transparent access to multiple content repositories without violating SAP security. Capable of all SAP ArchiveLink commands, the ACC greatly simplifies testing of document-centric test scenarios for all SAP modules.
Effective Standardized SAP Document Management
SAP ArchiveLink is a “treasure chest” of functions and features to link content from hardcopies with the electronic data of transactions and master data in SAP. ArchiveLink document management can help you recapture office space by getting rid of filing cabinets and storing documents electronically and accessible from within SAP. We will share common and not-so common but effective business use cases with you.

SolutionXchg managed the archive replacement project, helping the company cut archival costs by $700K over a five-year span. When the manufacturer decided to split into two companies along its product lines in 2016, they again brought in SolutionXchg. The result: additional benefits in cost and time savings, and the companies are positioned for seamless transitions to future archive storage technologies:
“We made our migration deadline, but best of all we delivered a new archival landscape with an efficient architecture that was greatly simplified from the previous version.”
