Data Migration - Active contracts
Hi All,
As per the business rule of client, they post single invoice for the full amount at the start of contract, with four invoices on the same date but with varaying due dates on first of every quarter.
Ex: Start Date: 1\1\2010. End date: 31\12\2010. Amount 120000\- Posted on 1\1\2010. Invoices: 30,000\- four invoices with dates 1\1\2010. 1\4\2010 1\7\2010 and 1\10\2010.
Assuming that if i migrate the data on 1\8\2010. i marked cash flow date in sap as 1\1\2010 and first posting date 1\8\2010.
1. Now shall i need to create new line items using rerapp in the system or shall i allow the AR open items to move to the sub ledger with reference to cotract?
2. If i don't post entries using RERAPP in the system, then at the time of termination how system reverse the full contract amount and post for the used period (which is standard behavior in case of termination) as there are no entries posted.
Can anybody throw some light on this.
Thanks,
Bala.
Hi Anil
How did you manage this? We also had the same problem in one of our contracts and what we did was that we copied the contracts from the legacy with the full value. That is suppose SAP went live on 1st April, 2009 and the contract was created on 1st January 2009 for a value of suppose 100 USD, with the first billing being done on 1st Jan for 33.33 USD for 4 months. We first created the contract with a validity from 1st Jan 2009 in the new system. We billed it with a billing type that we created that did not actually create new accounting entries as the accounting entries had already been created in the legacy system. In the new system then we recognised the revenue till the go live, so that the actual value remaining of the contract reduced. Then we started the billing plan of the contract from 1st of April 2009 for the remaining amount. So next invoice was created on 1st april for 33.33 USD. Can you share your solution.

How can we upload questionnaire to CRM 2007 during data migration activity?
Hi all,
I have an requirement where i have to upload questionnaires from an existing CRM system to SAP-CRM 2007 during data migration activity.
i just go through what are questionnaires, how we can create them and how we can assign them to transactions.
how can i upload during data migration activity ?
Thanks & Regards
Raman KhuranaHi,
According to your post, my understanding is that the 'Upload.aspx' page was missing or corrupted from many document libraries after migration to 2010 from 2007.
Per my knowleadge, the upgrade process sets the SPWeb.CustomUploadPage property for upgraded sites to a custom upload page titled
uploadex.aspx, as opposed to upload.aspx which is the default page for file uploads. And this custom upload page contains the “Destination Folder” field.
To removes the custom upload page (uploadex.aspx) from SPWeb, and reverts back to the default upload page (upload.aspx), we can use PowerShell script to loop through all Web sites that are contained within the site collection, including the top-level site
and its subsites, and checks to see if the SPWeb.CustomUploadPage property is not equal to blank. If true, then it sets the SPWeb.CustomUploadPage property to blank.
Here is a great blog for your reference:
Destination Folder field in site upgraded from MOSS 2007 to SharePoint Server 2010
More information:
What’s This Destination Folder Field On My File Upload Page?

Data Migration of Contracts with periodic billing and revenue recognition
Hello Experts,
I am trying to develop a legacy data migration plan for Contracts with periodic billing plan and revenue recognition.
Example of the scenario is given below:
Customer signed a contract for one year starting 01/01/2009.
Customer is billed quartely, billed in advance.
SAP going live on 04/01/2009
Customer is billed for 3 months and also for initial set up fees.
Revenue recognition is done monthly.
We have to migrate this contract to SAP.
Billing document posting may be necessay as it affects revenue recognition which spans across the total contract period.
Any ideas how to do this?
Thanks A Lot
Anil

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
kumarHi 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.

Data Migration from Legacy System in CRM
Hi All,
We are going to Implement a new CRM project, I have a problem with LSMW(Legacy System Migration Workbench ), I have some Conversion Objects of CRM and I need to know whether Data Migration is possible or not, please tell me how to find these Objects and how to know Data Migration is possible or not.
Objects are like.,
1. Accounts
2. Actuate Reports
3. Active Campaigns/Campaign Content/Dispositions
4. Contacts
5. Contracts
6. Opportunities
7. Payment Arrangement History
8. Payments
9. Premises
10. Rate Changes
11. Security Deposits
12. Business Partner Relationships
13. Web self-service information
14. Usage that has been used for quotes
15. Tax history information, including AXCIS
17. Service Requests
18. Service Order History
19. Security Deposits
20. Reference Values
21. Rate Changes
Can anybody please tell any transaction code in CRM where can I find the Data migration for the above objects is possible or not.
Thanks in Advance,
Sai.Hello,
for migration into CRM I would suggest the 'XIF-Interfaces'; these are interfaces provided in CRM for connection to external systems. I'm not sure if this will cover all objects mentioned above, but at least some of them should exist.
Some information about existing interfaces can be found in the integration repository under http://ifr.sap.com/index.html; from the start screen first select 'Enter the repository' and then have a look under 'generic components' and 'SAP CRM'.

Sai.Hi Ram,
Use Transaction Code EMIGALL. It will ask for company code. By default Company Code is SAP. If you entered with the SAP you will get all the objects.Then goto menu IS-U Migration-->User Handbook. It will give you details Idea.
Also Check the following Procedure
You can find detailed documentation of EMIGALL in SAP itself. Use Transaction EQ81 to display it. It provides all the concepts and procedures to work with EMIGALL.
Here are some points about EMIGALL :
1. It Migrates data Business Object wise
2. It uses Direct Input Technique
3. It has more than 100 objects of IS-U
and the steps for implementation goes like this:
1)You have to create a user specially for migration which will have all the authorizations related to migration workbench, BASIS and IS-U
2)You have to create your own company in EMIGALL. There is a default company called SAP.
3)Company SAP contains all the Business Objects
4)You have to figure out what business objects u need and then u have to copy those business objects to ur company from Standard Company SAP
5)Each objects contains more than one structure and each structure can contain more than one fields. The relation goes like this
Object ---> Structure ---> Field
6)You have to define field rules for each required field of the object. You have to mark "Not required" for fields u don't need
7)After field rules for a given object is set u have to generate load report i.e. actual Direct Input Program which will migrate data. This program is generated on basis of field rules set by u.
8)After the load report is generated u have to prepare an input file (import File) for migration. The import file should be according to structure provided by SAP and must be in binary format. SAP Provides the structure of file according to your configurations. You have to write ur own Data conversion program(in any language) for this task.
9)You take import file as input and migrate the data using generated load program
10)Finally u can check the Migration Statistics and Error Log

Data Migration of FI-CA Cleared Items
Hi,
Currently I am working on a Data Migration project to migrate data from our FI-CA module on ERP 4.7 to ECC 6.0.
THere has been a request from the business to migrate historical data (e.g. Cleared items).
Is there a SAP recommended approach or tools to load this data into the target environment?
Currently all documentation around SAP data migrations talks about stategies for open item data migration however I have seen nothing arouund migrating historical financial data.
Is this because it is not recommended or technically impossible?
Regards
Adam GunnThat BAPI is used typically for straight out vanilla GL, AR, AP postings, however you still have to create the other side of the entry and then clear it.
I need to be able to migrate full history, which means from an FI-CA viewpoint:
1. Migrate FI-CA posting of liability against BP/contract account.
2. Migrate associated payments.
3. And then clearing documents.
Basically the requirement is to represent the historical data in the new system as if it was posted and matched off.
Is there a technical way to do this?
OR,
Do you migrate the FI-CA liabilties, then the associated payments and then run clearing on the target system?
I suspect this is almost an impossible data migration requirement as development of the extraction and load process would be extremely complex and testing would take months to cover all posting scenarios in FI-CA. However, I would be interested if anyone has attempted to do this before.

T-code for ending the active contract in RE-Fx
Hi Experts,
Is there any separate transaction to end a RE contract.
Currently I'm terminating the contract, by manually entering the valid to date in the genral data tab page of the t-code RECN.
Is there any other way available to end an active contract?
Kindly assist.
Thanks & Regards
ShantanuShantanu,
Terminating Contracts is a Business scenario and usually a Business process is defined for such scenario. What I mean is if you wish to terminate a Contract you may have to execute series of steps in SAP related to your contract, example terminating Objects, taking care of outstanding payments/receivables etc.
I could not find a Valid to date on Contracts General Tab which you quoted. But if you are talking about Contract end date on Terms tab then that is the expiration date of the term or the Contract. Contract will expire on that date, but you can certainly renew the Contract.
If you wish to terminate a Contract, I would suggest to execute Notice on Contract and populate NOTICE PER date. Depending on your requirement you can choose to give notice on Objects too. This will mark this Contract as Canceled. This is an event and you can use it to control subsequent tasks in your business process. For this process you can set up Notification and reminders too.
There is a Notice Tool which you can use for mass termination too.
Thanks,

Hello,
I am getting "Migration active source hierarchy" error in the SCCM 2012 SP1 prerequisite checker on the CM 2012 primary site. The error says "There is an active hierarchy configuration for the migration. Please stop data gathering for each
source site in the source hierarchy." However, actually there is no migration source hierarchy configured and there are no migration jobs displayed in CM 2012 console. We used to configure this feature to migrate CM 2007 to current CM 2012 without service
pack two years ago and we have deleted these configurations.
In migmctrl.log, the following record is being generated every 60 minutes.
