Master Data
 Long term data
 Represent data sets mostly
 Examples:
• Sales and Distribution:
 Customer Master
 Material Master
 Condition Master

Transaction Data
 Process related data that is short-lived and dedicated to certain master data
 Master data of a vendor can be assigned to transaction data that concern the sales volume development
 Include:
• Organizational level
• Master data
• Situational data
 Example: customer order
• Organizational level: client, company code, sales organization
• Master data: customer master, material master
• Situational data: date, time, person, amount

On-Premise vs. Cloud
 SAP S/4HANA …
… Chooses between Cloud and On-Premise
• No extra hardware investments needed
• Cloud and On-Premise can be used hybridly SAP Fiori

without loosing the company´s integration
SAP S/4HANA Core
• Protection of investment
SAP HANA
• Possible migration of SAP Business Suite customers

On-Premise vs. Cloud
Subscription Licensing Traditional licensing

 Deployment in the private cloud,  Traditional licensing with customer
maintained by SAP control of deployment and maintenance
• SAP provides system and controls • Private control of deployment and
maintenance maintenance
• Automatic participation in quarterly • Hardware at companies location
innovation upgrades • Privately controlled data
• In-App extensibility with limited ABAP • Fewer release cycles
• Current release cycles • Individual requirements possible
• SAP ERP embedded • Traditional ABAP extensibility up to core
modification
