The SAP 2027-2030 Deadline Map: ECC, Compatibility Scope, PI/PO, Solution Manager, BW, APO, BPC and LO-VC
One dated map of the SAP maintenance and usage-rights clocks that land between 2025 and 2030: SAP ECC 6.0 EHP 6-8 mainstream and extended maintenance, the SAP ERP private edition transition option, Compatibility Scope (most items expired; selected CS, LE-TRA and PP-PI items run to 2030), and the satellite products around ECC: Process Orchestration, Solution Manager, BW 7.5, APO, BPC, GTS 11 and classic variant configuration. For each clock it names the successor, the SAP source to check, and the testing work it creates, so a program can sequence its work instead of reacting to headlines. Built for everyone on an SAP program, with a 12-question quiz.
