Labels in SAP Standard
→ Replace your legacy software with the SAP standard Adobe Document Services (ADS) using our automated migration.
Many companies still rely on legacy labeling tools such as BarTender or NiceLabel — solutions that originated when SAP’s native labeling capabilities were limited.
Today, with SAP Adobe Document Services (ADS), labels can be designed and printed directly within the SAP standard — without third-party software and with seamless SAP integration.
Manual migration typically requires 6–12 hours per label format, depending on complexity.
Our automated approach enables you to migrate your existing labels quickly, securely, and in a fully standardized way. Project cost and duration are significantly reduced — turning months of effort into just days.
4IoT manages the entire migration process for you — without operational downtime — ensuring your labeling landscape is fully S/4HANA-ready and quality ensured.
