New GL activated without data migration

Hi all,
we have some three projects lined up, one of it is new gl, due to some reasons we have postponed the go live of new gl but other two projects wants to go ahead with their go live, so we provided them an environment where new gl is active but doesnt have migrated data.
What would be the risks when regression testing is done in such an environment, i have listed out few as below, can something else be expected?
Cannot perform closing operations, as balances are not known and no previous data is available.
Clearing and reconciliation functions cannot be performed.
Cannot use the reporting function as there would be discrepancies in the output
cannot check the balances
Transactions referring to the previous data such as bill of exchange, down payments etc cannot be executed.
if some one has gone thru such situation before, please provide information.
thanks
kumar

Hi Kumar,
Find below the answer to your question
Cannot perform closing operations, as balances are not known and no previous data is available.
- You can perform the closing operation without any problem. Its just that you will not have previos data which will get added to your existing data.
Clearing and reconciliation functions cannot be performed.
- You can perform reconcialiation function to the extent you have done the posting, not for the previous data.
Cannot use the reporting function as there would be discrepancies in the output
- You can take out reports but it will not give you correct picture as the previous data is missing. please keep in mind the Balance sheet GLs have cumulative balance.
cannot check the balances
- You can to the extent which you have done posting
Transactions referring to the previous data such as bill of exchange, down payments etc cannot be executed..
- Yes, to do so you need to migrate the previous data.
Suggestion: Activating New GL without Data migration is an incomplet process, you should do the data migration at the earliest.
Hope the above statements answer your questions.
Regards
Paul

  • Activity without date type "Actual Date"

    Hi experts,
    Does anybody use activities without date type "Actual Date"(000000000002)?
    I created a new date profile and assigned it to a transaction type,
    then warning message "Date type "Actual Date" does not exist in the activity
    " (CRM_APPOINTMENT062) occurs.
    The message was origninally created by note 428436.
    The note describes "certain date types are required in the reporting and for the index update".
    I don't know what is "the reporting and for the index update".
    I'm afraid if something bad happens without the date type.
    Regards,
    Fukuhara Yohei

    Hi,
    Whenever activity (or any other one oder document) is created, an entry will be made in CRMD_ORDER_INDEX table. When system looks for the transactions, it first checks if a corresponding entry is there in this or not. That's why indexing is improtant for effective search to happen.
    So the note means that in absence of Actual  Date date type, system may lead to improper update of the index table and also reporting of activities may be affected.

  • I want to make recovery partition on my new macbook pro without loosing my data

    i want to make recovery partition on my new macbook pro without loosing my data

    You already have one. Hold command r keys and boot the machine into it to see.
    If your meaning you want another partition to boot your machine normally, like a cloned OS X partition, you can do that this way.
    1: Make sure you have less than 50% of your boot OS X partition filled with data, this can be done looking at Activity Monior.
    2: Another thing, all the OS X data needs to be on the top part of the drive, to make room at the bottom for the second 50% paritition. You can't always tell this easily but you'll find out shortly.
    3: Use Apple's BootCamp software and create the second 50% partition on the drive and then exit it without proceeding further. If it fails or is not large enough, then the #2 above problem is evident and you need to clone and reverse clone from a external drive to shift all the data back up.
    BootCamp: "This disc can not be partitioned/impossible to move files."
    4: If you have a second 50% partition on the drive, next head to Disk Utility and select the second partition and change it's format to OS X Extended Journaled and the name to Macintosh HD 2 (name optional of course)
    5: Next download Carbon Copy Cloner and clone the first partition to the second, make sure it's a PURE CLONE in preferences as the default is to save the states between updates.
    6: Reboot the machine holding the option/alt key down, Startup Manager launches and your second boot partition is there.
    This method provides a second bootable clone while portable for excellent sofware protection, however if the drive fails both parititions are lost, so external clones on extra hardware are of course needed also.

  • New GL Data Migration

    Dear All
    We are going to migrate from classical general ledger to new general ledger with scenario 3. We have done all the necessary configuration related to new general ledger and also completed the testing. In this regard I would request if any one has experience of data migration from classical to new general eldger.
    Thanks and Best Regards
    Farhan Qaiser

    Dear Mark,
    We had faced the same issue & our communication with OSS brought the following points to the fore:-
    a) The decision to activate doc-splitting MUST be made before go-live.
    b) The migration tool required for data migration into doc-split related tables is    planned by SAP but not yet available.
    c)Subsequent activation of doc-split causes serious problems as per note 891144.

  • Confuse on PR & PO data migration approach new to MM module

    Hi All,
    I'm pretty confuse with the PO data migration approach when it comes to PO is GR or partial GR or GR&IR. I'm hoping that someone can enlighten me. i understand that we typically don't migrate PO when it is GR & IR, FI team usually will bring over to the new system as an vendor open item in AP. How about the PR or PO which have gone through or half release strategy? What is the follow up process?  I have created a criteria table below. How Could someone point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance.

    Regards,

    Hi John,
    The approach that i have followed recently is that we have considered PO as the base document and converted other documents based on the PO condition. This means you first need to see if the PO is to be converted or not. Then you can proceed to convert the related documents like PR, Agreement, Info record, Source list, etc.
    Also open qty for PO should be considered for Material and Service line items both.
    Once a GR/SES is created, it gets updated in the PO history table EKBE with its related transaction/event type.i.e. EKBE-VGABE = 1 for GR and 9 for SES. Quantity and value also gets updated in case of material and services. You can compare this consumed quantities with PO quantity.
    Please see below from SCN and let me know if you need more info on PR or PO conversion.

  • How can I sync my iPhone 4 with a new MacBook Pro without losing all my data and settings?

    I used to sync my iPhone 4 with a PC running Windows XP until the hard drive died. Thankfully, I already had a backup of all my iTunes media (Songs, TV Shows, Movies, Podcasts, Apps, etc), so when I bought a new MacBook Pro, transferring my iTunes library was easy.
    My problem now is that I want to sync my iPhone 4 with my new MacBook Pro without losing all the data and settings. I have already used iTunes to back it up and transfered my purchases onto the mac. I just need help to sync the iPhone with the Mac without losing app data, emails, contacts, settings.
    Everytime I click on the tabs (to sync contacts, apps, music, et al), I get an error message that reads:
    "Are you sure you want to sync apps? All existing apps and their data on the iPhone “Ryan's iPhone” will be replaced with apps from this iTunes library."
    What do I do? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Ryan

  • How do I sync my iPhone 4S with a new iTunes library without losing data?

    Hi,
    I have been using an iPhone 4S for a few months now. Yesterday my PC crashed and I had to reboot the whole system.
    So, obviously I had to reinstall iTunes.
    Now, when I am connecting my phone with iTunes, it is informing me that my phone was synced with another iTunes library and if I sync it with this one, it will erase all data and do a fresh sync with the current library.
    I have alot of important data, photos, contacts, messages, music on my phone now. I can't do without that.
    How do I sync without losing my data? ? Help!
    Tarun

    can't if you do not have access to the old library (the usual workaround is to backup the old library and import it to the new itunes)
    for important data...
    sync your existing contacts with icloud, your text messages will not be disrupted, music will sync with whatever music you have on your new itunes, photos shoud still be in the camera roll (I would sync them to photostream before you sync, just in case).   Any photos on your phone that are not in camera roll or photostream... if you lost those pictures with the computer crash I would take screen shots (lock button + home button at the same time) of each photo so they show up in the camera roll.  App data may or may not be lost.  In my experience, it depends on the app.  Some of the apps recognize your apple ID and sync data over the internet with servers, some do not.  I would take note of important data (such as passwords in a password keeper if you have such an app) just in case if you lose that data.

  • How do i move my itunes image to a new PC? Without losing my Data

    How do i move my itunes image to a new PC? Without losing my Data

    These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
    Method 1
    Backup the library with this User Tip.
    Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
    Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
    Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
    Method 2
    Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
    Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
    I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
    Note if you have failed to move contacts and calendar items across you should create one dummy entry of each in your new profile and iTunes should  merge the existing data from the device.
    If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library or a backup then then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.

  • I had a data migration done from old iMac to new iMac, how do I use that file to find my old email contacts, Safari bookmarks, etc ?

    I recently had a data migration from old iMac to new iMac 11.2
    How do I use that data file to get old email contacts, Safari bookmarks, etc ?

    FireWire cables are dirt cheap and that's how you should be doing the migration. You might have to start over, wiping the new machine's HD, and restoring the software as described in the Everything Mac manual that came with it. See Best Practices and Setup new Mac for more details.

  • I just upgraded from my 2008 MacBook to a new Macbook Pro. How do I get my time capsule to work on my new MacBook? I did data migration, but the time capsule did not pick it up. Any ideas?

    I just upgraded from my 2008 MacBook to a new Macbook Pro. How do I get my time capsule to work on my new MacBook? I did data migration, but the time capsule did not pick it up. Any ideas?

    If you migrated all the info from time machine to your new MBP. The TM will usually ask to connect to the old backups.. sorry I am not sure is this what you want to do.. Personally I think you start a fresh backup.
    BTW Time Capsule does not do anything.. it is a dumb hard disk in a box.. it is TM that does everything.
    Look at B5 and B6 here about connecting to your backup.

  • What can I do simply  to keep all my previous contents, (own pics, videos, etc.) on my previously authorized iPad on PC, but get a new authorisation and a right syncronization, without data loss with a new  iTunes on my new Mac?

    Friends,
    I already had an iPad(1) and its full contents (not only the purchased items, applications from Apple, but my all own pics, videos, songs etc.) is normally syncronized with an authorized PC (Windows) computer.
    Now,  I've bought a new MacBook Air computer, and want to sell my PC. But I don't know how to transfer (or syncronize) all of the contents from my previous iTunes on PC to the new one on the Mac.
    When I connected my iPad to my new MacBook Air, I promted, if I want to change authorization of my iPad to the MacBook.
    But also got a warning, that the new iTunes will delete from my iPad all my previously syncronized items, pics, videos and music, with the previously authorized  iTunes on the previous computer, expect the saved pics from the net.
    What can I do just like that, simply  to keep all my previous contents on my iPad, but have a new authorisation and a right syncronization, without data loss with the new  iTunes on my new Mac?
    Thanks a lot for your answer.

    Here are some instructions that I have posted several times that may be helpful to you as they have been to others. You can simply ignore anything that does not apply or that you have already done.
    As Alan stated above - transferring the iTunes library is the best first step. If you can transfer the iTunes library to the Mac, most of this will be unecessary for you to do.
    Very Important ....
    1. Authorize the computer.
    2. Turn off auto sync in iTunes
    3. Transfer purchases
    The text in italics is from the other thread - non italics are my words.
    The following was copied from this thread. This is essentially what you want to accomplish.
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/11527071#11527071
    1) Without connecting your iPad to your new computer, start iTunes. Click on iTunes. Click on Preferences. Click on Devices. Check the box next to "Prevent your iPod etc. from automatically syncing." Click OK.
    2) Now connect your iPad to your computer and start iTunes.
    3) When iTunes starts, right click on your iPad under Devices in the left column. Select Transfer purchases etc.
    4) After it finishes transferring all your apps to your computer, right click on your iPad and select Backup your iPad.
    5) After it finishes backing up your iPad, right click on your iPad and select Restore etc.
    6) After it finishes restoring, left click on your iPad , then click on the Apps tab on top, and check the box next to Sync Apps, then click on Apply below.
    If everything on your iPad looks good after the sync, go back and click on iTunes / Preferences / Devices and UN-check the box next to Prevent your iPod etc. The only other thing you may want to check is if your contacts, bookmarks, etc. are syncing correctly now. If not, go to the Info tab after connecting and make sure you indicate which features you want to sync with what sources.
    Read this thread and the support links as well. There are apps that you can purchase that will allow you to transfer photos from the iPad to your computer. Look at Photo Transfer App in the App store and you can search for others as well.
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/13016026#13016026
    This support site will help you with transferring iTunes music to your new computer.

    One final note - you may want to leave auto sync turned off - but that is totally up to you. I never did use auto sync.

  • Data Migration from R3 to new ECC System

    Hello,
    We are doing a fresh implementation for SAP MDM. Currently we have 3 SAP R/3 systems and 1 non-R3 system (BPCS system). One of the project goals is to do data migration from all these 4 systems into a new SAP ECC system and to MDM for Vendor Master, Customer Master and Material Master. My manager says that we need Business Objects tool to Migrate these data. But, my question is that is it not possible to achive this through XI/PI itself ? Can anyone let me know the entire process in XI/PI as to how do I receive the Idocs from R/3, convert into XML and then send it to the new ECC system in Idoc format ?
    Thks & Rgds,
    Hema

    Hi Gandhi,
    You have SAP MDM, BPC and R/3 systems in your landscape, when you are migrating data to new ECC system, what is the role of mdm, did you moving the same data to MDM to avoid duplicate/redundant data??is there any data migration from R/3 to MDM(any integration required)or MDM to R/3,
    You have to develop different interfaces to transfer data from MDM to ECC, BPC to ECC.definelty you required one middleware, the option definitely SAP PI. it offers very easy of integration between MDM and R/3 system, you can use MDM-PI adapter to connect to directly MDM syndicator file port from there you can pull the XML file and convert it in to IDoc format use Receiver IDoc adapter in PI, the same way we can integrate BPC system with R/3.
    Search in sdn, there are some scenarios integration of R/3 and MDM using PI, refer those links, if still you have any doubts let me know,
    Regards,
    Raj
