São Paulo, May 2024 – Digital Transformation permeates many aspects of our daily lives. From simple tasks to the most complex, digitalization shapes the way we live, work and relate. In the corporate world it is no different. Technology plays a crucial role, automating processes, centralizing information and facilitating resource management.
In this scenario, SAP, a global leader in business management systems, is not left behind. Constantly evolving, it integrates technologies such as artificial intelligence and IoT to offer more and more innovation. However, to fully take advantage of these capabilities, adequate user preparation is essential. An SAP study showed that S/4HANA, the new version of the software, can reduce system-related working time by up to 70%, in addition to reducing the error rate by almost zero and increasing employee productivity by 44%.
The Importance of Employee Training
Tiago Henrique Feltrin, Director of Technology & Digital at Hypera Pharma, says that one of the organization's main concerns regarding migration was the adaptation of employees. Because of this, the migration is being done gradually so that everyone can enjoy the advantages. “The more technological environment is beneficial to employees, as it provides better performance. The new tool allows us, for example, to centralize processes and opens up space for updating our own culture. But it is important to take into account the adaptation process of employees, who must be trained for this change, in addition to bringing these updates to our organizational culture”, highlights the director.
Paulo Secco, CEO and founder of Mignow, a market leader in SAP upgrades that carried out the Hypera Pharma migration, comments on the development of Miglearning. This tool was created to train employees in the use of SAP. “Miglearning was born out of educational need. We are committed to ensuring that employees make the most of the resources offered by SAP. The tool not only empowers users to use the system more efficiently, but also adds value to the final delivery to the customer, providing a more prepared and competitive organization”, highlights Secco.
Benefits of SAP for the Organization
In its new system, SAP provides quick and clear analysis of indicators such as order processing time and consistency between invoices and orders. Furthermore, the document approval process can now be done via application, making the operation easier. Migrating to S/4HANA represents an opportunity to optimize internal processes and align with market demands.
However, this transition often faces challenges, especially when it comes to employees adapting to new interfaces and functionalities. According to SAP, the use of a new system can cause a drop of up to 20% in production efficiency, due to user problems with the software, which highlights the need for training.
Challenges and Solutions in Training
Users may need adaptations to Fiori, the new S/4HANA interface and modules, due to the complexity and constant evolution of the software. “An employee accustomed to SAP GUI, from ECC, realizes the need to update their knowledge when faced with Fiori, feeling challenged by the differences and motivated to explore new functionalities”, explains Marcel Nakazawa, Head of COE at Mignow and creator from the project.
To address this challenge, Miglearning offers regularly updated supporting materials, allowing users to track changes and interpret information effectively. This helps with important steps such as running reports to assess inconsistencies and their context. Furthermore, the tool offers a step-by-step guide for different types of situations, not only in the conversion stage, but also throughout the process of using SAP. “Miglearning acts as a guide for users, helping them to contextualize changes and interpret information independently”, concludes the expert.
The Need to Stay Updated
It is worth noting that remaining in the old system implies the loss of valuable resources. SAP focuses its efforts on improving new functionality, such as CA indicator reporting, on technologies such as Fiori or SAQ, rather than on its legacy reports. Being up to date allows you to absorb new tasks that can be carried out in a simplified way through the software.
Paulo Secco highlights the updates that were made to Fiori reports in the latest version released in November 2023. He highlights that it was common to access three reports in SAP Gui, while a single report in Fiori provides the same information. Furthermore, it highlights the graphical improvement of reports, allowing the creation of pie or column charts, something that was not possible before.
Preparation and Competitiveness
By investing in employee training and adopting tools such as Miglearning, organizations can face the challenges of Digital Transformation with confidence and ensure a competitive and sustainable future. Continuing education and familiarization with technological innovations not only increase the efficiency of internal processes, but also prepare the workforce to quickly adapt to market changes.
Organizations that are dedicated to training their employees in the use of SAP ensure that each team member is well equipped to use the system's tools and functionalities effectively. This, in turn, increases overall productivity and quality of operations, providing a more collaborative and dynamic work environment.
Success Stories and Real Impact
The effectiveness of the software has been proven in large projects with companies such as Votorantim, Localiza and Pague Menos, in addition to carrying out the fastest migration in the world in just 18 days for the construction company RFM. “Mignow’s AI identifies errors and bugs in the client’s system and proposes automatic solutions, which drastically reduces project time,” explains Nakazawa. Furthermore, the software performs the conversion of Custom Codes in an automated way, with the possibility of reducing manual intervention to just 1% or up to 0.5%.
Future Innovations and the Role of Mignow
The executive also highlights the use of other OpenAI APIs to create a pioneering and exclusive resource from Mignow that extracts, reviews and corrects codes autonomously, further optimizing resources. Mignow is not limited to the use of GPT Chat. MigMentor, a tool in development that will use Chat GPT to provide information about internal processes and technical terms, both to the team and to customers. “This highlights Mignow’s commitment to remaining at the forefront of Digital Transformation, exploring new technologies and resources that appear on the market”, concludes Nakazawa.

The SAP S/4HANA update also includes innovations in corporate accounting. These innovations allow for better data integration and more effective management of financial processes. The ability to validate balances and improved account reconciliation are just some of the features that help companies maintain robust and efficient financial management.
Mignow’s Role in the Transition to SAP S/4HANA
Mignow plays a key role in facilitating the transition between SAP versions. Through subscription software, Mignow keeps the system constantly updated, offering solutions that reduce errors and execution times. Using artificial intelligence, Mignow ensures that systems are always competitive and aligned with market innovations.
Guilherme Joventino highlights the importance of keeping the SAP system up to date, not only to save time and resources, but also to guarantee the competitive and innovative capacity of organizations in the market. Transitioning to the latest version of SAP S/4HANA is an essential strategy for companies looking to lead in an ever-changing business environment.
The Role of AI in Migrating to SAP S/4HANA
As the 2027 deadline set by SAP for the discontinuation of ECC approaches, companies are looking for effective solutions to migrate their systems. In this scenario, Mignow announced the development of SAP migration software that incorporates Artificial Intelligence and ChatGPT technologies from OpenAI. This software simplifies the migration process, significantly reducing the time and cost involved.
Mignow's AI identifies errors and bugs in the client's system and proposes automatic solutions, which drastically reduces project time. The company, specialized in SAP conversion, scaled its processes, allowing it to increase the number of projects maintained with the same number of employees. Mignow software uses AI to automate SAP updates, minimizing the need for human intervention and speeding up operations.

By Paulo Secco, CEO and founder of Mignow
In my career of more than two decades in the technology sector in renowned companies collaborating with some of the main technological partners in Brazil, I have noticed a significant transformation in the way companies approach sustainability. This evolution is no longer a trend, but a necessity, especially considering the current global environmental scenario. Being sustainable is no longer an option but an essential requirement for survival and success in today's competitive market.
Organizations that ignore sustainable practices not only face a loss of monetary value through cost-saving opportunities such as energy efficiency, but they also lose market relevance. The demand for sustainability, now more than ever, is driven by consumers themselves, who measure companies by the yardstick of their practices and choose to support those that demonstrate real commitment to the environment.
Given this reality, it is crucial not only to implement more sustainable internal processes, from the production chain to office services, but also to develop business practices that promote sustainability. It is alarming to know that, in 2021, just six companies were responsible for 71.4% of global greenhouse gas emissions, according to a study by the Institute of Energy and Environment (IEMA). This data emphasizes the role of organizations in reducing these emissions and combating climate change.
Reducing carbon emissions, for example, contributes to the objective set by the UN to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Adopting the “Carbon Neutral” status goes beyond a mere symbolism of environmental commitment; It is a concrete step towards counterbalancing the negative effects of business activities on global warming.
Among efforts to promote business sustainability, the transition from fixed servers to cloud-based solutions stands out as a concrete example. By making it easier for organizations to migrate to the cloud, we see a direct impact on energy efficiency and resource management. This impact is so significant that it placed SAP among the top three on the list of 23 vendors evaluated by the IDC Sustainability Index for Software Vendors.
By migrating from a physical server to the cloud, companies ensure not only a reduction in gas emissions and energy consumption, but also an advantageous position, through the direct reduction of servers and improved energy efficiency. Furthermore, organizations that present sustainable concerns and initiatives are more prepared for the future. Technologies such as Artificial Intelligence, incorporated into the conversion process, can help even further, reducing migration time and leading the company to a more sustainable environment with reduced project time and cost.
Furthermore, migration to the cloud has proven to increase employee productivity, saving time and resources on activities such as cash closing or payroll processing, which used to take a long time and are now significantly faster and more efficient with the use of advanced systems. such as SAP S/4HANA.
An example of the positive impact of these technological innovations on sustainability is the case of Carrefour, which, by adopting cloud hosting, not only achieved a significant reduction of 45% in its energy consumption, but also a notable reduction of 40% in its operational costs. . This transformation also resulted in a considerable reduction in carbon emissions, highlighting the positive environmental impact of innovative technological decisions.
Based on this assumption, the migration to SAP and the adoption of cloud computing emerge as business solutions that can reduce the environmental impact of operations. As more organizations join the system, the environmental impact will be significantly lower.
When reflecting on the importance of sustainability in the business world, it becomes clear that energy consumption is one of the main contributors to greenhouse gas emissions. Therefore, by adopting sustainable technological practices and solutions, we are not only benefiting organizations in terms of efficiency and savings, but also contributing significantly to the preservation of the environment.
The commitment to innovation and sustainability drives digital transformation with a focus on reducing environmental impact. The integration of advanced technological solutions with sustainable business practices can not only foster business success, but also significantly contribute to a more sustainable and green future for generations to come.
