Notice of changes due to an upcoming financial system upgrade - Israel

As communicated earlier, we will be undergoing a financial system upgrade to SAP S/4HANA in June 2023. While we are excited about the many benefits that this new system will bring to our operations, we would like to take this opportunity to inform you about upcoming changes and challenges that you may experience during the transition. The upgrade to SAP S/4HANA is a significant change that will require us to temporarily suspend some of our financial system functions during the transition. We understand that these delays can be frustrating and apologise in advance for any inconvenience this may cause.

To enable a smooth transition, we would like to share with you the below overview of the changes you may experience during the transition period and following the upgrade. We recommend that you review this information and make any necessary updates.

You may experience delays in our invoice creation during the system migration from 9 June to 13 June 2023.
