Accelerate Transformation Timelines

You can’t do this manually—automation is the only practical way to move fast, stay accurate, and reduce effort at scale.

What are Key User Fields?

In the Clean Core world, SAP has a provision called “Key User fields” that allow customers to still add to the data model but in a manner that is upgrade safe and agile.

Custom Fields Are Everywhere—But You Can’t See All of Them.

Legacy custom fields are a hard blocker for Clean Core. Hidden and undocumented, they’re buried deep in your codebase—making it nearly impossible to see where and how they’re used. These outdated extensions limit your ability to leverage S/4HANA innovations like Fiori apps, embedded analytics, CDS views, APIs, and low-code tools.

Lack of visibility leads to technical debt being carried forward.

What our customers are saying

"Companies already deeply entrenched with SAP should seriously think about smartShift, which is the best solution for custom code remediation. When you’re doing your S/4HANA transformation, I’d advise you to include smartShift in your approach. Inject smartShift early, when the train is still moving— otherwise, you’ll have to stop the train like we did. Or you might get into a train wreck.”

Charles Ahn, Director of SAP Technology Enablement and Integration Kimberly-Clark

"You hear about S/4HANA upgrades going south. That did not happen to us. The number of defects we had after go-live was so tiny it was just incredible."

Keith Smith, SAP Solutions Director, CONA
