SAP S/4HANA
What is Compatibility Scope?
ECC functions that still run in S/4HANA on-premise or Private Edition under a limited usage right expiring end of 2025 (some until 2030).
SAP's Compatibility Packs let customers keep using certain classic functions such as SD credit management, classic WM, or the classic MRP after conversion, temporarily. Usage rights generally expired at the end of 2025, with a few alternatives extended to 2030. Programs must plan and test the move to the intended successor solution.
