Walk into S/4HANA with clean access — not a backlog of SoD conflicts.
SAP ECC support ends in 2027, and every migration rebuilds your roles and rulesets. Most shops carry years of segregation-of-duties conflicts straight into the new system, where they resurface as audit findings. 7 Pillars Automation finds those conflicts, ranks them by risk, and hands you a prioritized plan to remediate them.
Three forces are pushing SAP access risk to the surface — all at once.
December 31, 2027
Mainstream support for SAP ECC ends, confirmed with no further extensions. Extended support runs to 2030 at a premium. Migrations take 18–36 months — the clock is already tight.
Identity governance moves
SAP Identity Management is being retired, pushing organizations onto IAG or third-party governance. Replacing an identity platform is the moment access risk gets re-examined.
New system, old conflicts
Every migration re-cuts roles and rulesets. Without a clean baseline first, years of accumulated SoD conflicts transfer straight into the new environment.
The SAP SoD Health Check
A fixed-scope assessment that gives you a clear, ranked picture of your access risk and a plan to fix it — the right first step before remediation, migration, or your next audit.
A report and a roadmap
- →A full segregation-of-duties & critical-access conflict report, ranked by risk severity.
- →A prioritized remediation roadmap your team can act on — what to fix first, and how.
- →A working session to walk your stakeholders through the findings.
Start with the assessment. Expand as far as you need.
