Support on SAP BPC 10.1 Microsoft extended: Don't wait to outsource

SAP has chosen to extend support on SAP BPC 10.1 for Microsoft through June 2026. This means there is about 1.5 extra years to orientate yourself to other EPM solutions. Despite this extra time, it is essential to secure management and maintenance for that period and to establish a roadmap for the replacement and archiving of SAP BPC.

benefits of outsourcing support.

Outsourcing support to a specialized party provides several benefits:

  • Being completely unburdened:
    • Continuity—no issues during vacations, sick leave, or staff turnover;
    • A strong focus on IT security and performance;
    • Flexibility and scalability;
  • Your own technical knowledge, both functional and technical, is no longer required:
    • The Swap Support functional team has in-depth knowledge of SAP BPC and other EPM solutions;
    • Referit's technical team is available 24/7 to provide support.

epm roadmap.

This is the time to outsource the support and maintenance of the existing environment and to get guidance on the choice of and transition to a new EPM solution. Swap Support's EPM roadmap, which includes the SAP Maintenance Strategy and migration options, is a good guide for this. Click here for an article on the SWAP Support website on this topic.

Moreover, chances are that this extension means that the Windows Server software of your current SAP BPC platform must be upgraded between now and June 2026 to avoid vulnerabilities. And the data in SAP BPC must also be retained and accessible for several years after the phase-out due to the legal retention period. Swap Support and Referit can provide the solution for this.

So don't wait any longer.
