Anugal Announces U.S. SAP IDM Readiness Campaign Ahead of 2027 Maintenance Deadline

Campaign helps enterprises uncover hidden SAP IDM dependencies, protect governance continuity, modernize identity governance and reduce migration risk.

MYRTLE BEACH, S.C., Oct. 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Anugal, a product of Business Core Solutions, today announced a U.S.-focused SAP Identity Management (SAP IDM) readiness campaign ahead of mainstream maintenance for SAP IDM 8.0 ending December 31, 2027.

For enterprises, the challenge is not simply replacing a platform. Joiner-mover-leaver logic, provisioning scripts, approvals, roles, segregation-of-duties controls, connectors and audit evidence can sit behind SAP IDM. Unmapped dependencies can become migration risk, control gaps and avoidable cost.

The impact crosses industries. Enterprises depend on access controls, decisions and audit evidence.

Licensing can also shape the business case. Some SAP-only IDM scenarios may operate under SAP application-specific runtime rights, while use with non-SAP systems can require separate licensing. Transition planning becomes an architecture, governance and cost decision, not only a technical migration.

Anugal starts by determining what should be retained, redesigned, replaced or retired. Its approach — discover, design, migrate and validate — maps identities, roles, applications, workflows and controls before migration moves in governed waves.

AI-assisted analysis helps surface orphaned accounts, dormant or excessive access and segregation-of-duties conflicts, allowing teams to reduce legacy risk before migration. Anugal reports 30–50% lower three-year IGA total cost of ownership versus legacy approaches; actual savings vary by scope and architecture.

"The deadline is not the hardest part of an SAP IDM migration. The logic nobody documented is," said Vignesh Ganesan, Head of Product, Anugal. "Auditors expect every hidden rule and exception to keep working on day one. Built by SAP security specialists, Anugal maps those dependencies first, migrates in confident waves, and then goes further, with AI-driven governance across SAP, cloud and non-human identities. Migrate what IDM did. Govern what it never could."
