After a company takeover, the whole of financial accounting has to be migrated from SAP to an individual American software. Additionally, a migration from PAISY Host to PAISY C/S is necessary.
Supplement
The previous IT systems, based on MVS host and SAP R/2, are to be replaced in the areas of accounting and human resources management. Individual programs based in part on client/server and in part on host solutions are to be used as the new system for accounting and the new human resources system will be a PAISY client/server solution. Data that has accumulated in the past is to be migrated, taking account of all the legal requirements.
