What is KTern's Business Functional Analysis?
Introduction
SAP provides new features and enhancements for the existing SAP
installations in self-contained units called business functions. These functions can be used for various business processes, they can be switched on or off based on the processes.
The activation of the business function cannot be undone.
KTern automates the process of analyzing business functions. After
connecting the system, KTern runs the business functions analytics
check and automatically classifies the installed business functions into
active and inactive business functions.
Business Function Analysis
KTern makes this entire process simple by identifying the state of
the business functions in SAP ECC and analyzing whether the functions
are compatible with S/4HANA or not.

2. The number of active business functions
3. The number of business functions whose compatibility has to be reviewed.
KTern also classifies the business functions into the following types:
Enterprise Extensions: These are the type of business functions which activate industry-independent and industry-specific applications and business processes.
Enterprise Business Functions: They can activate special features in SAP S/4HANA. They contain both industry-specific and industry-independent enterprise business functions.
Industry Business Functions: They contain functions specific to a particular industry and are part of the industry business function sets.
KTern’s Business Function Analytics feature analyzes all the
business functions installed in an ECC system in the Discover phase
itself. It then classifies them into active and inactive business
functions. The main objective of this feature is to analyze the impact
of migrating these active business functions to S/4HANA.
In addition, you can also sort and search the
business functions according to the status, compatibility and types of
business functions.
