Data migration - procedure

I have three tables and want to create another table that includes the structure of all the three tables and later drop the three tables.
How to acheive the data migration by writing a procedure.
Thanks in advance
Raghu

That is indeed the better option. If you insist on writing a procedure, a few selects from the DBA_TABLES, an array and some dynamic SQL should do the trick. After that you can transfer the data, and drop the tables.

  • Data Migration from Legacy System in IS-U

    Hi All,
    We are going to Implement a new IS-U project,  I have a problem with LSMW(Legacy System Migration Workbench ),  I have some Conversion Objects of IS-U 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

    these are few and there are some more..,
    Thanks in Advance,

    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

    A new iMac includes the migration assistant utility. Plug your external drive into your new iMac. Start up the iMac for the first time. The iMac first time procedure ask if you want to migrate your data. Say yes.
    You can run migration assistant later. It's in:
    Macintosh-HD -> Applications -> Utilities -> Migration Assistant

  • Data Migration techniques

    Hi Experts,
    I want to know about data migration techniques and how we can best use MDM while migrating old version of R/3 to new version of R/3....
    I have implemented SAP MDM in cases where we have number of SAP R/3 instances across different region and we were taking data from different R/3 one by one and doing data stan'zation,consolidation, Harmonization and all... I am not talking about all this...
    There was a good explanation from <b>Markus Ganser</b> about <b>Duplicate data and identical data</b>... I know all this..but my question is when I have <b>only one SAP R/3</b> and I still want to implement MDM solution while migrating my old R/3 instance to new one, How can I proceed in this scenario? What is the data migration technique...
    I know the common answer will be to use MDM as a middle ware..take Master data from old instance and after consolidation, send it back to new instance and at the same time send tran'data directly to new version... But is this worth doing this? Is there any other approach?
    If there is any document on this or any one have idea about data migration techniques while implementing MDM solution than send me documents on [email protected].......
    In short, I am looking for below 3 points while doing migration along with SAP MDM

  • SAP Accelarated Data migration

    Hi All,
             Could someone kindly provide more info about SAP ADM. I am uanble to get any info about the same. I would like to understand as to how exactly the tool works. I have the 4 page PDF that is posted on the site but its not clear on the actual tool. Can someone kindly provide me with some document or screen shots or any more info about it. My mail id is [email protected] Could someone kindly reply at the earliest.
    Thanks
    Prahlad

    Hi Prahlad,
    Go through this hope u can understand.
    With SAP Accelerated Data Migration, you can reduce migration
    costs by as much as 50% and avoid interruption of business
    processes. Moreover, shutting down the source system after
    migration reduces system administration costs and total cost
    of operations. In short, you realize the following benefits:
    • Significantly reduced cost and time to complete migration
    projects
    • Accurate, cost-effective data transfer applicable for any kind
    of source system
    • Better data quality because of preconfigured business objects
    that ensure data consistency
    • Improved end-user productivity and acceptance thanks to
    migration of historical data
    • Effective migration that avoids interruption of business
    processes
    • Full support services to avoid risks and ensure the optimum
    performance of your new business applications
    • Faster return on investment
    In short, a smoother, more cost-effective migration to a new
    technology solution ultimately positions your organization
    to lower your total cost of ownership, maintain competitive
    advantage, and pursue new business opportunities.
    Expertise in Action
    SAP Accelerated Data Migration applies a business object–oriented,
    two-step approach that uses a neutral interface as a staging area
    and predefined migration content for the conversion and upload
    of data. The neutral interface enables the SAP tool to generate
    predefined migration content and prevents all potential legal
    issues regarding the intellectual property of any source-system
    vendor. The whole data migration process from the source to
    the target system consists of just two steps, as follows:
    1. Data is extracted from the source system into the standard
    interface as XML files.
    2. Data migrates from the interface into the mySAP Business
    Suite database. The migration is based on a new “migration
    workbench” engine developed by SAP based on the SAP
    NetWeaver® platform. All requirements for mapping structures
    and fields and developing complex conversion rules are solved
    within this engine (see Figure 1).
    Once the migration is complete, business-unit end users have
    access to all the legacy data in the new applications as if it had
    originated there. They can continue to work on the existing
    business process items in the new applications and benefit from
    improved functionality.
    Lifting the Limitations
    Much of the cost and effort involved in classical data migrations
    are generated by migration content development, as follows:
    • Identifying business objects for migration to properly support
    the business
    • Defining the structure and field mapping for the relevant
    business objects
    • Developing conversion rules for all necessary value mapping
    Readily available migration content can simplify this effort.
    SAP Accelerated Data Migration provides preconfigured business
    content, helping you migrate it to your new system more efficiently
    and rapidly. The tool allows the migration of all types of
    data, independent of its current state within a business process.
    This includes master and dynamic data, as well as partially
    processed and historical data, to minimize data loss. Business
    processes are uninterrupted and normal operation procedures
    can be retained.
    By providing a standard, neutral interface and reading data as an
    XML file, SAP Accelerated Data Migration is applicable for any
    kind of source system. Preconfigured data migration objects built
    specifically for SAP applications significantly simplify the conversion
    from non-SAP software data into SAP software data objects,
    yielding far-reaching benefits. Besides reducing related IT costs,
    you can be certain of consistency across business-object boundaries.
    Through a direct insert into the database, you avoid the
    performance limitations of classical data migration.
    Reward points if helpful.

    The BAPI Change() changes an existing instance of an SAP business object type, for example, a purchase order. The BAPI Change () is an instance method.
    Delete( ) and Undelete( ) The BAPI Delete() deletes an instance of an SAP business object type from the database or sets a deletion flag.
    The BAPI Undelete() removes a deletion flag. These BAPIs are instance methods.
    Cancel ( ) Unlike the BAPI Delete(), the BAPI Cancel() cancels an instance of a business object type. The instance to be cancelled remains in the database and an additional instance is created and this is the one that is actually canceled. The Cancel() BAPI is an instance method.
    Add<subobject> ( ) and Remove<subobject> ( ) The BAPI Add<subobject> adds a subobject to an existing object inst! ance and the BAPI and Remove<subobject> removes a subobject from an object instance. These BAPIs are instance methods.

    Bdc to Bapi
    The steps to be followed are :
    1. Find out the relevant BAPI (BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE for VA02).
    for VA01 use BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2
    2. Create a Z program and call the BAPi (same as a Funtion module call).
    2. Now, if you see this BAPi, it has
    -> Importing structures.
    eg: SALESDOCUMENT: this will take the Sales order header data as input.
    -> Tables parameters:
    eg: ORDER_ITEM_IN: this will take the line item data as input.
    Note :
    Only specify fields that should be changed
    Select these fields by entering an X in the checkboxes
    Enter a U in the UPDATEFLAG field
    Always specify key fields when changing the data, including in the checkboxes
    The configuration is an exception here. If this needs to be changed, you need to complete it again fully.
    Maintain quantities and dates in the schedule line data
    Possible UPDATEFLAGS:
    U = change
    D = delete
    I = add
    Example
    1. Delete the whole order
    2. Delete order items
    3. Change the order
    4. Change the configuration
    Notes
    1. Minimum entry:
    You must enter the order number in the SALESDOCUMENT structure.
    You must always enter key fields for changes.
    You must always specify the update indicator in the ORDER_HEADER_INX.
    2. Commit control:
    The BAPI does not run a database Commit, which means that the application must trigger the Commit so that the changes are read to the database. To do this, use the BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT BAPI.
    For further details... refer to the Function Module documentation for the BAPi.
    Bapi to VB(Visual Basic)
    Long back I had used the following flow structure to acheive the same.
    Report -> SM59 RFC destination -> COM4ABAP -> VB.exe
    my report uses the rfc destination to create a COM session with com4abap. com4abap calls the vb.exe and manages the flow of data between sap and vb exe.
    You need to have com4abap.exe
    If com4abap is installed you will find it in sapgui installatin directory , C:\Program Files\SAPpc\sapgui\RFCSDK\com4abap.
    else refer OSS note 419822 for installation of com4abap
    after making the settings in com4abap to point to the vb program and setting up rfc destination in sm59 to point to com4abap session , you can use the following function modules to call the vb code.
    for setting up com4abap and rfc destination please refer to the documentation for com4abap.
    Invoke NEW DCOM session
    call function 'BEGIN_COM_SESSION'
    exporting
    service_dest = service_dest "(this will be a RFC destination created in SM59)
    importing
    worker_dest = worker_dest
    exceptions

  • Data Migration Best Practice

    Is the a clear cut best practice procedure for conducting data migration from one company to a new one ?

    I don't think there is a clear cut for that.  Best Practice would always be relative.  It varies dramatically depending on many factors.  There is no magical bullet here.
    One except for above: you should always use Tab delimited Text format.  It is DTW friendly format.
    Thanks,

  • Treasury Data Migration

    Friends,
    One of our client has decided to use SAP Treasury and Risk Management. I have been asked to lead data migration within this area. For the same, I would like to know the generally used and needed master and transaction data for SAP Treasury Management. Also, let me know the various ways of migrating data into SAP TRM eg. BAPI's, Transaction Manager, LSMW etc.  
    Regards,
    Amey

    Hello Amey,
    Please find list of steps which might be helpful for data migration.
    Legacy Data Transfer
    1. Legacy data
    transfer always happens on a key date.
    2. The procedure is
    different for securities and OTC because they deal differently with positions
    on a key date.
    3. For securities, we
    simply need to copy the positions with all values as of the key date.
    4. For OTC, the
    entire transaction is copied as there is no explicit position management in the
    transaction manager.
    Customizing the Legacy Data Transfer:
    You primarily need
    customizing for the update types that the flows of the legacy data transfer
    business transactions are to carry. We can find the settings under Treasury and
    Risk Management à Transaction Management à General Settings à Tools à Legacy
    Data Transfer à Flow Data à Update Types.
    The update types are
    divided into those for valuation area independent & dependent. The
    independent one only relates to securities. à While the legacy data transfer is
    usually not intended to update the general ledger, nevertheless you must mark
    most of the update types as posting relevant and maintain an account
    determination in customizing. This is necessary to ensure that the data in the position
    management is complete and in particular the account assignment reference
    transfers can be performed correctly.
    Legacy Data Transfer for OTC:
    Step
    1: Existing OTC transactions enter the same way as new transactions.
    Enter either manually (or) use existing BAPIs to import them. BAPIs list à Use
    BAPI_FTR_FD_CREATE & BAPI_FTR_FXT_CREATE
    for creating FD & FOREX transactions respectively. Similarly there are many
    BAPIs for each product and we can get the list of BAPIs in BAPI transaction code
    under the node Financials à Financial Supply Chain management. Use FTR_BAPI
    Transaction to test run the Treasury BAPIs.We may define separate transaction
    type for legacy transactions so that settlement (or) posting release is not
    necessary.
    Step 2: Now we must change status of all the historical flows
    created in Step 1 to POSTED without actually generating accounting document. To do this we will use transaction TBB1_LC.
    This is similar to transaction TBB1. Unlike TBB1, TBB1_LC affects all the valuation areas without giving an option to affect only operational area. We can see the posted flows by TBB1_LC in posting journal (TPM20) without any reference to accounting documents.
    Step 3: Till now the historical flows do not yet explain the book value of OTC transactions. Hence we must first enter the historical valuation results. This is done using TPM63C which you can find under path Treasury and Risk Management à Transaction Management à General.Settings à Tools à Legacy
    Data Transfer à Flow Data à Enter Valuation Area Dependant Data for MM.After entering the
    valuation results use TPM63 to transfer values to Internal Position Management.
    Legacy Data Transfer for Futures & Listed Options:
    Step 1: Similar to OTC
    Step 2: Similar to OTC
    Step 3: Use transaction TPM63D (Valuation area dependant data for futures). We must establish the relationship between lot & the transaction on which it is based via the transaction number.
    Legacy Data Transfer for Securities:
    For securities position, it does not matter whether is arose in the past through a single purchase (or) a series of business transactions. The legacy data transfer thus seeks to build up the positions through One Business Transaction on the transfer key date.
    Step 1: Before we enter business transactions, we must first create the master data of security position i.e. their Position Indicator. I) Use TPM61A (or) menu path Treasury and Risk Management Transaction
    Management à General Settings  Tools à Legacy Data Transfer à Position Data Enter Position Information for Securities
    II) Now create the position indicator using TPM61.
    Step 2: Now we will enter the business transaction.
      I) Valuation area independent data for securities à For External Position
    II) Valuation area dependant data for securities à For Internal Position Nevertheless, we need to use transaction set the effects of update type on position to change the positions. If you want to enter LOT Positions with the transactions of legacy data transfer, use the Item Number. Ensure that business transaction generating the position and the one for valuation results carry the same item number.
    If you have built up
    lots via normal procedures, you must specify the corresponding transaction number
    when entering the valuation area dependant business transaction in the
    transaction column.
    Step 3: Now generate the business transactions using TPM63.We can initially build only valuation area independent data (external position) by checking “only valuation area independent data” button in TPM63. The external position can be checked in securities account cash flow i.e. external securities position in TPM40.
    Also we created LSMW for each product.

    Jain

  • Dought in data migration

    How to get into BI..
    i know there are few steps in involved in getting that field to Bi .
    can any buddy let me know what is the procedure to get that field to BI .valuble inputs will be surly be rewarded .
    Thanks ,
    Vinay .

    Hi Vinay,
    we cant take zfields in the LSMW by using DI ,
    if is there anything like this better to go for BI (Recording method).
    if u want to use only DI method, there is an alternative field or not for a particular field search for that and mapp the field in a proper way(carefully).
    Reward points if helpful.
    Thanks

  • Error detail in data migration?

    Hi all,
    I'm migrating an Access database to Oracle using SQL Developer and the migration workbench.
    When I run the data migration, it almost all works, but one table has one error.
    I get a list of tables, with rows, total rows, errors and total errors.
    Only one error is reported in the summary. 2208 out of 2209 records migrated in this table.
    How do I find out what the problem is?
    Is there a log anywhere?
    Is the data migration script visible anywhere?
    Thanks,
    Greg H

    Hi Dermot,
    It turns out there's some corrupt data in the Access database. That or it's in a language that I don't have installed on my machine.
    Access displays it as a bunch of squares.
    I guess if Access can't figure out how to display it, it would be unreasonable to expect a migration tool to.
    The Export Table Data failed with "error #5 Invalid procedure call or argument" and did not create the file for this table.
    I'll send this one record back to the business and let them figure out which record it is and if it's important.
    Thanks for your help,
    Greg H
