SAPhas updated its ERP suite SAPERP 6.0- formerly MySAP ERP 2005 - to
include functionality that can be implemented on an as-needed
basis, rather than requiring a single major upgrade. SAP said it
plans to maintain its ERP 6.0 platform until 2010, providing
upgrades and enhancements in chunks that customers can chose
whether to implement.
SAP said that this allows customers to get new capabilities
while meeting a key customer requirement to leave core
ERP
functionality stable.
"As a result, customers can isolate the impact of software
updates and quickly bring new functionality online through
shortened testing cycles without impeding core business processes,"
said a spokesman for the company.
SAP announced its new upgrade strategy for at the end of 2006,
to allow customers a more economical and less disruptive way of
adopting and managing software releases.
