Leave SAP without the horror story — coexistence until every gate passes.

Ask around about SAP migrations and you'll collect horror stories the way others collect frequent-flyer miles. This profile exists so yours isn't one: objects mapped with coverage tests, connectors matured through readback verification, history carried with lineage — and the legacy system running until reconciliation proves each domain safe to switch.

## Migration stages

Each stage below proves before proceeding — the legacy system runs until the evidence says otherwise.

### Map

Objects, routes, and integrations inventory with per-item verdicts: adopt natively, wrap compatibly, or rebuild under governance. Nothing unmapped proceeds.

### Prove

Connectors mature through readback verification, authorization evidence, and conformance tests. Drift control watches every adapter for behavioral change.

### Cut Over

Reconciliation gates prove before/after equality per domain before switching. History migrates with lineage so audits cross the boundary intact.

## Profile guarantees

- **Complete mapping:** Routes, objects, and integrations mapped with coverage tests per platform
- **Mature connectors:** polyMAX adapters versioned with drift control and readback verification
- **Safe cutover:** Reconciliation gates proving before/after equality before any domain switches
- **section:** capabilities

## Migration by industry

Migration pressure bends per industry — same proof gates, different legacy estates.

section: industries

### Manufacturing

SAP and Oracle shop-floor estates with MES integrations migrate domain by domain — orders and inventory first, planning and costing after reconciliation proves.

### Distribution

Legacy WMS and EDI estates map with partner profiles versioned. Transaction continuity holds across cutover weekends with fallback positions staged.

### Professional Services

PSA and time-tracking estates with open engagements migrate mid-flight: WIP, backlogs, and billing schedules carry over with lineage intact.

## SAP Migration Profile questions

### Section 1

Do we have to rip and replace SAP?

No. Coexistence profiles map existing data and workflows into XRP while SAP keeps running. Cutover happens only after reconciliation gates pass.

### Section 2

What about custom SAP extensions?

Extensions inventory with mapping verdicts per object: native adoption, compatibility wrapper, or governed rebuild — each with its own evidence gate.

### Section 3

We've been burned by a migration before. Why is this different?

Because nothing switches on a date — domains switch on evidence. Ask for the reconciliation report of any domain before approving its cutover; the gates are yours to inspect, not ours to assert.

## content section

value: Migration is a data import with evidence, not an application rewrite. Coexistence runs until reconciliation proves the cutover safe — domain by domain, with each gate recorded and reviewable.

## Section 6

Object and route mapping with coverage proof

## Section 7

Connector maturity and drift control via polyMAX

## Section 8

Authorization evidence and event lineage per migration

## Section 9

Reconciliation gates before cutover
