Data conversion of open checks

Hello,
We are preparing our data conversions for a new implementation of SAP in the US. A question came up as to whether we should enter check masters for checks we have printed and mailed to our vendors but haven't been cashed at the time of go-live. The other option would be to put the balance of these open checks into a GL account and manually enter journal entries when they are cashed.
Our normal business process will be to use FCHR to process a file we receive from our bank with cashed checks. If we don't create check masters for our open checks, then FCHR will not be able to automatically process cashed checks from before go-live.
My question: is it best practice to load these open checks during the data conversion into SAP so that FCHR will clear them out, or is this normally handled as an exception using manual journal entries?
And, if it is best practice to load the check masters in SAP, what transaction code would we use to enter the open checks?
Thanks,
JB

HI
We have developed an ABAP program to set deletion indicatior in PO in mass. You can do the same by consulting your ABAPER.

GL Data Conversion from Legacy to Oracle EBS

Hi All,
I am tasked with converting legacy data into GL. I have worked on other conversions like supplier, AR and AP conversions but never worked on GL conversion, so I don't know how and where to start, what are the pre-requisites for entering data into gl_interface table how to ensure that data is correct in the .csv file etc.
Kindly request you all to guide me in right direction. Hope to hear from you all very soon!!! :)
Regards

Hi,
When you talk about GL-Data it is the trial balance to be loaded from legacy to oracle applications.
You can use Web-ADI to upload it ,the check list are
The balance for each account comibnation in the legacy system to be mapped to GL-Oracle code combination balance
With respect to open AR, AP Invoices if the invoices are converted using a control account for migration in GL then
the the balance transfered from AP,AR need not be reversed in GL from the source receivables and payables.
In case if the same account combination are for migrating the balances from AP,AR to GL ..Then the balances transferred from AP,AR should be reversed ..so that it does not affect the TB-GL-Balance
Finally ensure that the balance for the TB-tallys with your legacy system and upload it using Web-ADI ,import and
review and post it.
Hope this points helps your GL-Data conversion.

GL Legacy Data Conversion

I have a question for the data conversion strategy.
We are planning to store 2 yr detailed transactions and 4yr balances in Oracle system. In terms of the data conversion process, we were also going to take the same method. It would, however, cause schedule and workload constraints. Actually, we have not yet discussed this from realistic view points. In other words, we do not insist on storing all of data which are 2yr transaction and 4yr balances.
Although I believe that we will be able to eliminate a volume of the data to be converted to new chart of accounts from old ones, I am a little bit concerned about a couple of things as follows:
1. the workload for reporting processes
Assuming that we will not use Oracle standard reports so much, it would not be a big issue, even if we do not convert all of data I mentioned above. We will store historical report data somewhere, and be able to generate certain reports using both Oracle data and historical data in the repository. If not, it could cause us extra efforts.
2. Audit trails / Examination trails
If we give up converting the data to fit new system, and that fiscal year has not been examined yet, how should we handle non-converted data for the examination? I am just wondering whether or not, we have only to prepare the conversion table, that ties Oracle balances back to ABC detailed transactions for their reference.
If anyone is are aware of anything you can advise me, could you please provide some information or guidance? Thanks to ALL.

Data reconciliation for Open Orders in SD

Hi,
Can any one give me a step by step approach for doing the data reconciliation for open orders in the Sales Infocube.
Regds
tanu

Hi Tanu,
Reconcilation:
Reconcilation is the process of comparing the data after it is transferred to the BW system with the source system. The procedure to do reconcilation is either you can check the data from the SE16 if the data is coming from a particular table only or if the datasource is any std datasource then the data is coming from the many tables in that scenario what I used to do ask the R/3 consultant to report on that particular selections and used to get the data in the excel sheet and then used to reconcile with the data in BW . If you are familiar with the reports of R/3 then you are good to go meaning you need not be dependant on the R/3 consultant ( its better to know which reports to run to check the data ).
I will give you a scenario to help you understand it better. Lets say BW extracts FI data from R/3. To make sure that all the records has been extracted from R/3 we can create a report in R/3 which will show the year-to-date balance of all the documents posted and we can create a BEx query on the BW cube which will also display the trial balnce. Any difference between the two balance will identify the records missing from R/3.
Similary you can model other scenarios as per your requirement. If you are extracting from 2 or more different sources from R/3 then create a multicube on top of the individual cube and produce the report. You need to also create a similar report in R/3 as well.
check this How to Doc:

Data conversion strategy for new SOB

Dear Viewers
on 11.5.10
We are creating a new SOB with a change in currency from Feb-11 as this is the requirement
For the same, we need to do data conversion.
I have a confusion for Purchase Orders and Sales Orders
Purchase Orders:
Open purchase orders will be converted, means the unfulfilled PO`s i.e the ones not received and are fully open.
The PO`s which have been recieved but not delivered, Requested the users to clear the intransit receipts.
The PO's which are partially received, what to be done for them?
If a PO is fully received and Delivered will not me converted to the new SOB as its not an open PO
but If invoice comes after Feb-11, than how the matching will be done?
What if a return has to be made moving forward in FEB-11 under new SOB
Sales Orders:
Open sales orders will be converted, that is the ones that have been entered and not yet booked.
Users have been requested to clear off the Sales order lines which are already pick confirmed but not yet shipped, hence they will be shipped and interfaced to AR
For the Sales orders that have been booked, those lines that are not yet processed further will also be converted.
Now what if a receipt comes after feb 11, how to handle this as the sales order wiould not have been converted?
Please give your advise on the data migration strategy for PO`s and SO's.
Please do add any point that may have been missed by me
Appreciate your help
Thanks

Hi David,
for master data conversion you can use LSMW and the RE-FX BAPIs. (please refer to SAP note [782947|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/782947] ).

Otherwise if it has to be converted identifying the POs under this scenario, you may consider converting those maintaining receipt close tolerance as 100% and matching type as 2 -way (again business approval needed to handle audit issues) in order to avoid the receipts/delivery conversion etc.<br>
What if a return has to be made moving forward in FEB-11 under new SOB<br>Ideally returns can be done using Miscellaneous/Account Alias Issues specifying the appropriate transaction reasons to clarify the scenario.<br>

Java.io.IOException: data error cyclic redundantie check

Dear all,
I did a fresh install of JDeveloper 10.1.3.2.0 with JHeadstart 10.1.3.26 on my computer. These are the versions we use.
I've made a database connection, so that's allright.
When I open JDeveloper and I try to add an Application, we allready have made(with the same versions) I get the next error in JDeveloper: xxx.jws was saved in version file format and cannot be opened with an older version of JDeveloper. The version is not mentioned...
In the terminal I get the messeage of my subject: java.io.IOException: data error cyclic redundantie check.
I'm sure i'm using the same versions.
Does anybody know what went wrong?
regards,
Marcel.

It's like the data stream is getting messed up...so I would think of a few things:
1) Bad memory?
2) Bad connections?
3) Bad disk?
4) Viruses
Anything that can screw up the data steam.
Other than that....maybe as simple as reinstall the JVM and put new compiled code out there and see if it behaves.

Hi,
Can anyone please help with this? Our Tape Drive died and we got a new one from our Maintenance Company. Since then large backups to tape are failing. When the jobs are small they seem to go through OK but when the job is greater than around
200GB then it fails with the error below.
I tried updating the tape drive driver but Windows said that the drive wasn't functioning properly any more.
The only difference between the old faulty drive and the new drive is the firmware. We used to have A422 in the old drive. The new drive has D8D5. Can someone please help as it's driving me crazy.

Hi,
It sounds like another faulty drive - You can try to reproduce the problem outside of DPM using some external utilities.   If you get an error before the tape fills you can use net helpmsg errorcode to see what the error was.
Download the DPMerasetape.zip file from the following link and extract to c:\temp folder.

Billing Legacy master & transactional data conversion/migration in SAP ISU

Hi Experts,
Please let me know, in ISU implementation project, what is Billing related Legacy master & transactional data conversion/migration is done in SAP ISU system.
Thanks in advance

Pankaj,
There is no straight forward transaction to download the Configuration data and export it to a file.
However, you can use the BC set functionality to extract the IMG node with its contents.
Check the following SAP help portal link for more info on BC sets
Business Configuration Sets (BC-CUS) - SAP Library
The archive data that you are talking about; Is it master data or transaction data?
Also, what this data is related to-Financial Documents, Billing related info?
There is one standard transaction SARA through which based on the migration object you can archive the data and export it into a file in a particular location..
Hope it helps..
Thanks,

Data conversion for New GL - Going live during fiscal year

Hi Experts,
My client is going live on Oct 1 (fiscal year in Jan -Dec). So for data conversion we need to load P&L and BalanceSheet as of Sept 30, 2009. I need your help to resolve few open issues. (we have activated Doc Splitting with Zero Balance and Segment )
1) When we load P&L balances - how can I assign Profit Centers to all these P&L iitems .
2) What is the procedure (best practices) to assign Profit Centers to all the Balance Sheet items since we are going live during Fiscal Year
3) When we process open items (AR, AP) in month of October how the Profit Center assignment will work?
(My client will be using Profit /Cost center terminology first time, so we need to map all the B&S and PnL items to Profit centers)
4) What is the best way to map all the Balance Sheet GL accounts to Profit Centers.
Sorry for asking too many questions. Any help would me very much appreciated.
Thanks,
Sam

1) When we load P&L balances - how can I assign Profit Centers to all these P&L iitems .
Each P&L account balance has to be upload with cost centre, then automatically PC will be triggered.
2) What is the procedure (best practices) to assign Profit Centers to all the Balance Sheet items since we are going live during Fiscal Year
Let client decide the profit centre for balance sheet items, since they knows which balance relates to which pc
3) When we process open items (AR, AP) in month of October how the Profit Center assignment will work?
While uploading AR,AP balances, each line item to be uploaded with profit centre, automatically in october PC assignment will work.
(My client will be using Profit /Cost center terminology first time, so we need to map all the B&S and PnL items to Profit centers)
4) What is the best way to map all the Balance Sheet GL accounts to Profit Centers
Try to identify each balance sheet gl balance to each profit centre, this will help in future reports. otherwise put in common pc

Data Conversion Errors for the last week

We've been running a simple Stream Analytics job for little over a month now with a very light workload. Input is Event hub and output SQL Server. We noticed today that we haven't received anything into SQL Server since 2014-12-08 (we don't receive events
every day so we only know that everything still worked on the 8th of December), so we checked the job's logs. It seems that job is failing to process all the messages: The value of "Data Conversion Errors" is high.
I wonder what could have happened? We haven't touched the client since we started the job so it's still sending the messages in same format. And we haven't touched the job's query either.
Has there been an update to either to Stream Analytics or to Events Hub which could cause the issue we're seeing?

I've followed word for word the TollApp Instructions (except the thing with NamespaceType "Messaging" that has been added to New-AzureSBNamespace).
I have 0 line in output, and this is the service log:

Then I stopped the job, and connected to the event hub with a console app and received that:
