Question from Barry Matthews on Mar 31 at 1:53 PM
I work for an organization that is in the process of being aquired by another company.

We have been on SAP for 12 years and currently using ECC 6.0. We have activated WMS and have a very robust implementation with some sophisticated custom logic and functionality, especially for inbound receiving, picking, packing, and shipping.

The company purchasing us is in the middle of their first SAP build. It will be a phased, global rollout.

Once the aquisition is finalized, they will begin updating their SAP blueprint and build with our structure, processing and functionality.

However, they have a concern about porting our WMS solution into their new SAP Enterprice environment. They would prefer to keep our legacy SAP system intact in order to directly use our existing WMS solution through a series of interfaces to their Enterprice instance.And they are not talking decentralized WM.

Intuitively, this seems dangerous to me if it can even be done. I would prefer porting oue existing WMS build onto thier platform.

That's where I need help. First, has anyone ever worked in or on an environment like this? Does it work? Can it even be done.

We will have 12 years of data and they will have a brand new instance. Are their concerns around this?

Our DC folks have access to creating orders (in special instances), creating, modifying, deleting deliveries when needed, perform plant to plant, storage location to storage location moves, ...

I am hoping to get some responses back in order to stop this approach or if the response is positive in regards to this approach, bring me peace of mind.

Many regards,
Barry
