Conversion Process as a whole....

Hi,
I am going to join a team where I will be a member of Conversion team primarily responsible to work on LSMW. I would like to kind of get an overall idea of the team members a migration team will consist.
It would be great if someone could answer my following question..
1) What is the job of data staging and data cleansing team in the convestion?
2) Who is responsible to convert the legacy data in correct SAP format in the conversion team ? Can we achieve this conversion in SAP format using LSMW ?
3) What are the tools required to do the above tasks ?
Regards,
Rajesh.

I can give you my experiences as I was the one responsible for doing such conversions when first implemented SAP at my company.
<i>1) What is the job of data staging and data cleansing team in the convestion?</i>
Data Cleaning is the process of looking at your data and making sure that it is correct.  We always had a saying here,  "Bad In/Bad Out", meaning that if you put bad data into your system, then you will get bad data back out.  This will hurt the project over time.
<i>2) Who is responsible to convert the legacy data in correct SAP format in the conversion team ? Can we achieve this conversion in SAP format using LSMW ?</i>
I guess it really depends on the team, but in my case, I was responsible for extracting the legacy data out of the system using programs to write the data to flat files.  It was also my responsibility to write conversion programs, if needed, to convert the data.   Also  I had to develop the LSMW to upload the data.  If the conversions were not too complex, then I simply used the conversion routine in LSWM to convert the data to SAP data.
<i>3) What are the tools required to do the above tasks ?</i>
Well, first LSMW.   In my case,  knowledge of the source system's programming language enabled me to write programs to extract the data.
I hope this helps a little.
Regards,
Rich Heilman

  • Is there a way to stop and then resume an ipod video conversion process?

    I am trying to convert videos to play on my new iPod Classic. The conversion process is painfully slow. I need to move the computer. Is there a way to stop the conversion process and then resume it later where you left off? The only way I have been able to figure it out is to put the laptop to sleep and then open it up later to resume. This is a problem too as I have an external USB drive hanging off the side. Any ideas?
    Thanks all in advance for your help.

    AFAIk you can just uninstall Thunderbird and reinstall. The profile will not be deleted. If you want to make sure, however, make a backup of your profile folder first.
    Read up on "backup", e.g. here : http://email.about.com/od/mozillathunderbirdtips/qt/et_backup_prof.htm
    (google is your friend :9 )
    P.S. _ Matter of fact you should regularly backup your data (e.g. your thunderbirdprofile) to some place different so as not to loose it all, if a thunderbird-bug/virus/windows-failure/Layer8-Problem corrupts your data.

  • Conversion process(job work - MTO) delivery issue

    Hi All,
    We are unable to create delivery for a conversion process sales order(Job work - MTO) for which stocks are reserved from 5th nov 2011. The sale order is created on 5th nov 2011.
    We are getting the following error message: Message no. VL455 "The sales order you want to deliver, sales order 1101200011 with order type ZO03, either contains no delivery-relevant items or its delivery-relevant items have already been delivered."
    For the same sale order we are able to do the delivery from 23rd nov 2011 onwards.
    But we are not able to create deliver for the materials between 5th to 23rd.
    Please could any one suggest a solution for the above issue.
    Regards
    Srinivas

    Hie,
    This is because the schedule line in the sales order has confirmed the date for delivery as 23rd novemner. If the material is available (it should be reserved for that sales order since it is MTO) at 3rd novbr then re-run the availability check in the sales order. This will confirm the date for delivery as 3rd novbr.

  • How can I restart the conversion process?

    When I installed I-tunes the program started converting my WMA files to the AAC format. I let it run all day but at the end of the day I had to shut down the computer, so I stopped the process figuring it would restart when I restarted the program the next day. It does not do that. The only way I can find to do the conversion is one album at a time. Is there a way to restart the automatic conversion process?
    Compaq Presario v5000   Windows XP  

    I don't know of an automated way to do it, but it is easy enough to do it yourself in one large batch. Note I use a Mac version of iTunes and still use iTunes6, but the following should be more or less the same anyway.
    Right click the headings in your library and you will get a pop up of all the different headings. Turn on "Type" by checking it. Type is a column showing the encoding method (e.g. AAC, MP3, AIFF, WAV, etc.). Now you can click on this heading to sort your library by encoded Type. So now all the WAV files should be grouped together. You can now easily select the entire batch of WAV files, right click, and pick "Convert to xxx" where xxx is the encoder type you currently have set in your preferences for importing files. So if it is not in the format you want, go to preferences and change it. Once you pick the Convert function it will convert all the selected files to the new format.
    Note that converting makes a copy leaving the original in place. So the other advantage of having the ability to sort and select a large number of files by Type is that you can also select all the WAV files to delete in one step after you have converted them all.

  • Oracle conversion process

    We are moving from Access to Oracle. I am new at this. How does the conversion process work?

    Oracle has its migration tool. You could go to their Migration Workbench discuss group to get more help. I am trying to migrate from MS SQL Server to Oracle too. :-)

  • A failure occurred in the document conversion process

    A failure occurred in the document conversion process. The document cannot be viewed at this time.
    No matter what I can not view attachments. jpg will render, but it seems like nothing else will be.
    I do not see Document Viewer Agent (DVA) as a service in GW 2012 (OES2 SLES10)
    Seb

    I am having the same issue, but only with wav files.
    I can click on the <filename>.wav link and open the attachment fine in a selected program, but if I select the "Play" link, the window switches back to the login page with "[962D] A failure occurred in the document conversion process. The document cannot be viewed at this time" displayed underneath.
    Any ideas what this could be?

  • Conversion process of bidder to supplier in SRM 7.0 through portal?

    Hi,
    Problem: When the bidder is converted to supplier through the portal (working with SRM 7.0), the details are passed to BW. But, when I try to view the same bidder (i.e., the same business partner as bidder) in the bidder list, it could not be found. The object is being converted and is not leaving any trace. I need access those details of business partner (as bidder). For this, I need to track the process of conversion of a bidder to supplier (to look for enhancements).
    please let me know how to debug (web dynpro components) and where to look for exactly to track the critical stages of conversion, if any of you have experienced a similar scenario.
    Thanks in advance!!!!

    Hi ,
             Thanks Iftekhar and Yramki for replying. I checked everything and we have only one server for Development but still I am not able to debug, I checked AL08, it is showing same server we donu2019t have different application server for development. I donu2019t have any idea about that How to activate debugger for specific user id, please suggest me.
             Parameter set with value rdisp/tpda_for_ext = 1 . In the BADI i putted one infinite loop and then try to debug from the SM50 through Menu program/session u2013 Program u2013 Debugging but from GUI new debugger session is not opening and some time after process has been deleted from the SM50 and I got error message in the Portal.
             Do I need or missing some setting in Portal . Please suggest me.

  • Conversion Process

    I want to convert a .txt file to a .xml file. Content conversion, scenario, etc... has already been set up and compiled. Basically input file and output file are in the same directory.
    After compiling everything, i copied the input file over, but I couldn't see anything in SXMB_MONI or any queue. No output file is produced.
    Is there any way to check whether the process is terminated somewhere?

  • No progress for files in conversion processing

    Uploaded a pdf to convert to doc. While it was showing the progress bar animation, I clicked over to the files tab and then back again to the tools tab. There's no longer a progress bar animation on the tools page and no indication that a conversion is processing in background or anywhere else. My conversion just vaporized. Even the most basic software will warn the user they are about to perform a destructive action. This is nowhere in the realm of reality that I would expect from Adobe.

    Hi Jory,

  • Export PDF conversion process

    Where does the conversion take place for Export PDF?  PC or website?  If website are document copies cleanly removed on completion?

    If you subscribe to the ExportPDF online service, then the process takes place on the Acrobat.com website. After the file is converted, you either download it using your web browser or open it within Reader. The files are left on Acrobat.com until you delete them. You can access all your files via your browser at Acrobat.com and selecting the service you subscribe to or at files.acrobat.com.

  • FVU file conversion process related issues

    Hi,
    I am in process of conversion of text file into FVU file for TDS purpose.
    When I get text file through J1INQEFILE, its not conatining TAN of deductor.
    I checked in configuration.....like section code place, business place and even in SM30 J_1I_SECCODE....TAN is there at all three places...
    I have three requirements now
    1. How to update TAN in text file
    2. I want to get mobile no of TDS deductor in text file
    3. Where to update BSR code and even i want it to be updated in text file.
    I expect some of the experts to reply who had done already for their requirements. Its urgent please...

    Hi,
    Issue resolved. Problem is TAN no, MOBILE no of TDS deductor, and BSR code not been updated in text file that we generate thrugh J1INQEFILE.
    I have done manually by putting these things in text file and uploaded. I got the FUV file.
    For TAN updating, SAP told us to apply some note.
    SO, issue is NO MORE now.
    Thanks

  • Conversational Processes

    Hi,
    I've spent the last 12 months doing some work with MS Biztalk and am changing jobs next week to work at a company where they use the Weblogic platform (I have also been using WebSphere for a few years). In preparation for this I have been working through the WLI samples in order to get a better idea of how this works. I have a number of questions, though, to try and relate what I know to how WLI works in comparison:
    - Is it possible to have multiple synchronous client requests during the life of the process? From the documentation it appears not and that you have to implement all client requests (except the first one) as asynchronous. This seems to complicate the client end considerably and I was hoping that there was a way to set this up so that you can decide that where appropriate you can send a synchronous response after performing some activites (much like the client request with response). I understand the potential uses of asynchronous patterns but for most of the stuff I have done so far the simplicity of synch has been more important (particularly given that the web services exposed by the process have had to be consumed by heterogenous clients).
    - How can I correlate messages without using a special token (i.e. conversationID) ? Most of the products I have seen in this space allow you to create correlation sets based on some of the data in the message (e.g. surname and dob) in order to decide where messages are to be routed. I can see that you are able to use message headers in soap requests but is there any other way of specifying what data to correlate on? How for instance would you correlate the correct file delivered by an external service that a half completed process is waiting on with the correct instance based on it's content?
    Thanks for any help on this as I'm struggling to understand how I could replicate the complexity of process I've developed so far with the same level of ease and simplicity of use.

    Hi Edwin,
    I hope we are on the same note with what I meant by a conversational service, I meant either async/sync services, nothing more sophisticated than that.
    Here is what I am trying to implement
    1. I have the xml schemas for the input and output messages of the process. Some of these processes are complex involvign user tasks and tasklists which we can deal with later.
    2. The simplest one contains an invoke activity. The web service interacts with the toplink layer. Currently it just extracts the data from the toplink POJOs into java beans and returns an array of these beans. I would prefer returning an array of the POJOs unless it is better returning an xml doc.
    My concerns
    1. If I use xml docs for the synchronous service it would mean performing redundant transformations. What do you suggest is the best way to transform the xml docs into beans and back both in the process as well as in the service. I have read about orajaxb for oracle j2ee web services and xml facade within the BPEL. I want to reduce the number of transformations and the amount of code I need to write since time is an important consideration
    2. I am using the endpoint url provided by the web service properties in jdev. The problem is that the BPEL server is unable to locate this service that has been deployed in the standalone oc4j container. This is an immediate problem that I need to address.
    3. Isnt there a way to expose the business process through a facade layer, or should it always be invoked as a web service?
    Thank you.

  • Is there a conversion process for CS2 to CS6?

    I manage IT for a school, and one of my teachers has recently converted to CS6 from CS2.  She reports that some of her files from CS2 are not saving after opening in CS6.  Is there some sort of conversion or file update that needs to happen?

    Saving as what? Where? On what system? Sorry, but this is totally useless. We do not even know what program "she" is referring to, much less anything else. Generally all files created in previous CS versions open just fine in current versions, so whatever happens is specific to "her" environment, not a generic issue.

    Here is something I just sribbled together from some older scripts. There might be some better and prittier PL/SQL ways, but should do the trick.
    I asume the srid does not change in your user_sdo_geom_metadata. this is set hardcoded below with your_srdi what you need to set yourself.
    Good luck
