Professional and free migration
of your SAP Business One
SQL to HANA in the Cloud

frequently asked questions

• What does free migration mean?

  After we have received your order, you will be contacted by our experts to clarify the technical details. Then we start migrating your SAP Business One SQL database to SAP Business One HANA database in the cloud. This migration is free for you.

  After the migration you have 30 days to test your new SAP Business One HANA database in the cloud.

• When does my free test period of my SAP Business One HANA database start and when does it end?

  The free test period is 30 days, starting on the day the SAP Business One HANA database is made available to you and ending 30 days later.

  You can use our support for any questions you may have during the test period.

• How can I continue to use my SAP Business One HANA database after the test period?

  You will receive an offer from us within the 30-day test period. If you would like to continue using your SAP Business One HANA database in the cloud, you should send us your order within the test period. Otherwise you will not be able to access your HANA database after 30 days. In any case, you do not pay for the migration and only for the users and additional options if you want to use your HANA database after the test period.

  After receiving your order we will arrange an appointment with you to plan the migration of your productive environment.

• What happens to my data on the HANA database if after 30 days of testing I do not send an order to Cloudiax to continue using the HANA database?

  Your data will be deleted on HANA database after 30 days if we do not receive your order within the test period.

• Which SAP Business One versions are supported for migration to SAP Business One HANA?

  The following SAP Business One releases are supported for migration to SAP Business One 9.3, version for SAP HANA:

  • SAP Business One 9.0 PL 04 or higher.
  • SAP Business One 9.1.
  • SAP Business One 9.2.

  Older SAP releases on request.

  Very important: Only the penultimate version can be migrated since the migration process always requires an update. If your SAP on Microsoft SQL runs already in the latest version, you have to wait for the next patch, so that we can do the migration to HANA for you!

• What happens to my custom content, such as print definitions, stored procedures, and queries after the migration from SAP Business One SQL to HANA?

  Custom content like queries and print definitions maybe need to be adapted manually. Perhaps these customized reports and queries will not be needed anymore under HANA, because the HANA version already offers much more evaluation possibilities in the standard version.

  Your stored procedures will be adopted automatically, if no Microsoft SQL-specific functions are used.

  We carry out the pre-check. After that, we know what can not be migrated automatically, or whether the databases go through properly then they can be migrated and deployed directly.

  In any case, pre-check, bug list, tips and a list of the corresponding SAP Notes are available free of charge for you.

  If some customizations are needed for the migration, you can ask your consulting partner to assist you in this regard. We can also help you to find a SAP Business One partner, if you do not already have one.

• What about add-ons? Will they be adjusted automatically after the migration?

  There are now many add-ons that can be easily migrated. These include:

  • All SAP add-ons like Payment, Datev, Elster, EFM Format Definition, Screen Painter.
  • All Boyum add-ons like B1UP, Beas, Boyum CRM for Outlook, B1 iPayment.
  • All Coresuite add-ons including his modules except Enterprice Search (It is native function in HANA).
  • Coresuite Cloud Connector.
  • Abbaccus HCM.
  • Intercompany from SAP.
  • Apparel & Footwear.
  • CKS.DMS.
  • LPOne InformEtica.
  • Produmex Scan.
  • Maringo.
  • and more…

  For other add-ons, we know it after the pre-check. Possibly the manufacturer must make adjustments.

  Still other add-on manufacturers have not made their add-on HANA capable. In this case, an alternative add-on would have to be used or migration is not possible.

• What about application servers? Will they also be migrated?

  After consultation we can migrate additional application servers, such as Web server, bank details and more to the new system.

• Which licenses do I need for the migration?

  Our products and solutions, including the migration from SAP Business One SQL to HANA, do not include SAP Business One and Add-on licenses.

  With the license you are completely free in your choice. You can simply bring your existing purchase licenses, buy new licenses from the SAP consulting company of your choice (on-premise licenses) or rent them (cloud licenses). OEM licenses, which are available together with an industrial solution based on SAP Business One, can also be used by Cloudiax.

  We would be delighted to advise you on this matter.

  All other necessary licenses (operating systems, access licenses, virus protection, Microsoft SQL, etc.) are included in the migration to HANA. The license for SAP HANA is included in the rental licenses from SAP. For on-premise licenses, a separate SAP HANA database must be purchased. Contact your local SAP consulting company for more information.
