SAP Commerce Cloud / cloud ERP edition Audit

Yes. SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition is a prerequisite for the native ERP integration of SAP Commerce Cloud, cloud ERP edition. As part of the audit, we also assess whether your existing SAP system landscape and commerce processes are suitable for the standardized approach. 

Not currently. SAP has support for SAP S/4HANA Cloud Private Edition on its roadmap for the end of 2026. If you currently use Private Edition, we assess which alternatives make sense for your commerce initiative. 

With suitable standard processes, a go-live is possible in around 12 weeks. The key requirement is that your requirements are largely covered by the standard and do not require extensive customization. Our audit assesses these prerequisites and provides a realistic estimate of the potential timeline. 

The audit assesses whether SAP Commerce Cloud, cloud ERP edition fits your requirements, commerce processes and SAP system landscape. We evaluate standard coverage, customization options, integrations and economic viability and identify which requirements can be covered by the standard and where alternative solutions may be required. This gives you a sound basis for decision-making and a concrete roadmap for implementation. 

The audit is particularly suitable for mid-sized and B2B companies using SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition and looking to establish a fast, standardized commerce channel. It is especially valuable for standardized commerce processes and manageable customization requirements. Companies deciding between SAP Commerce Cloud, cloud ERP edition and the classic SAP Commerce Cloud also benefit from a reliable basis for their decision. 

The audit is conducted as a Fit-Gap Analysis and costs EUR 4,500. The analysis takes approximately two weeks. It includes an individual assessment of your requirements, an evaluation of standard coverage and technical feasibility, a TCO analysis and planning for a potential implementation project. You receive a final presentation of the results and a concrete recommendation for the next steps. 

The audit consists of six steps: We first analyze your requirements and commerce processes. We then assess fit-to-standard, customization options and limitations, followed by an assessment of integration into your SAP system landscape. We then evaluate economic viability and effort. Finally, you receive a clear recommendation and concrete next steps for a potential implementation of SAP Commerce Cloud, cloud ERP edition. 

We assess your relevant commerce requirements, including catalogs, pricing, orders, customer processes, frontend, payment and integrations. We identify which requirements are covered by the standard functionality of SAP Commerce Cloud, cloud ERP edition and where deviations exist. We also assess which customizations are possible and where the technical limitations of the standardized edition need to be considered. 

A key prerequisite is SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition, as cloud ERP edition is designed for native ERP integration. As part of the audit, we also assess your existing system landscape, relevant interfaces and processes. This allows you to determine early on whether the technical prerequisites are met and whether the solution fits your individual commerce architecture. 

Cloud ERP edition is designed for standardized processes, rapid implementation and native ERP integration. The classic SAP Commerce Cloud, by contrast, offers greater flexibility for individual commerce processes and extensive customization. As part of the audit, we compare both approaches based on your specific requirements, expected effort and business value and show which solution is more suitable for your initiative. 

With suitable standard processes, a go-live is possible in around 12 weeks. This requires your requirements to be largely covered by the standard and no extensive custom development to be necessary. Our audit assesses these prerequisites and gives you a realistic view of whether the targeted timeline is achievable for your commerce initiative. 

That depends on the specific requirement. The audit therefore assesses which individual requirements can be implemented within cloud ERP edition and where standardization reaches its limits. The Storefront offers extensive design flexibility, and individual customer experiences can be created using the Frontend API. Requirements affecting core commerce processes are assessed separately for feasibility. 

You receive a structured assessment of your requirements, standard coverage and technical feasibility, as well as an evaluation of effort and economic viability. We also identify where customization is required and which requirements may need to be addressed differently. The result is a clear recommendation for the appropriate solution approach and the next steps toward implementation. 

Yes. Following the audit, we can support the implementation of SAP Commerce Cloud, cloud ERP edition end-to-end – from the implementation concept and configuration through individual customizations and live operations support. Depending on the project setup, we can work with your existing S/4HANA partner or take over the required configuration ourselves. This allows the audit results to be transferred directly into implementation.
