Foundation
The Challenge
S/4HANA migration shouldn't break your subscription business
Standard S/4HANA does not carry forward IS-Media capabilities. For media organisations, this creates an immediate operational gap at the point of migration.
Lost IS-Media Capabilities
Publication and Subscription
lifecycle management are not
available in standard
S/4HANA, forcing costly
rebuilds or compromises.
Fragmented Renewal Operations
Without a unified system, offers, renewals, and subscriber communications end up spread across disconnected tools, creating revenue leakage.
No Visibility into Subscriber Behaviour
Retention decisions are made without real-time data on cancellation trends, renewal rates, or customer patterns.
Solution Overview
One system. Your entire subscription lifecycle.
Acuiti Media Solution for S/4 is built on SAP BTP and integrates natively with SAP BRIM and Subscription Billing. It gives media organisations a single, SAP-native control layer for managing offers, renewals, bulk processing, and publication lifecycles, with no custom development or third-party tools required.
Available in two variants to match where you are on your SAP journey.
