EXPERT RESPONSE
There are a number of complex reasons why a Unicode upgrade may be necessary, including the fact that your database may require Unicode in order to function properly with your new SAP system. Obviously, if you're working in multiple languages, particularly those that require non Latin-based character sets, Unicode is a requirement as well.
I would recommend that you check in with your SAP sales representative and/or your local users group to see what other similar organizations have done in moving to a new SAP implementation. The upgrade can be complicated and costly, and shouldn't be undertaken unless a good business or technological case can be made for doing so.
