SAP Clean Core and Custom Code Remediation: Sessions for ABAP Teams

Clean core makes sense in principle. The challenge is turning it into a practical, fundable plan for years of custom code and technical debt, without disrupting the business or simply creating a new generation of complexity somewhere else.

Across two days, learn how others are assessing what to keep, remediate, rebuild or retire, and where AI can genuinely reduce the effort involved. See how Orica turned clean-core analysis into a remediation roadmap and sprint plan, how Mitre 10 approached AI-assisted regression testing, and how leading AI tools perform against real ABAP challenges. You'll leave with practical approaches for reducing technical debt, prioritising remediation and extending SAP without compromising the clean core you're trying to create.
