Data Migration Update

Hi Experts
I have initial data migrated my customers into the system, I now want to perform an update to those customer I have already loaded. As I'm imported the changes ByDesign creates an error saying that the record already exists.
Is there away to perform an update.
Thank you in advance
Antonio

Hello Antonio,
As of release 1402 the Modify Already Existing Records mode of migration has been removed as this mode has been replaced with a functionality in the Mass Data Maintenance work center. For example you are trying to modify the Materials.
The requirement can be fulfilled through Mass Data Maintenance work center and the steps are as follows:
Go to Mass Data Maintenance work center.
Select Link for Export Materials.
Add the required Materials and select OK.
Go to General tab.
Select <export> for the columns which needs change.
Select Export Data to CSV File button.
In the Excel file, change/add the values for those fields and save the changes, and close the file.
Close the Export Materials screen.
Upload the file and Execute Data Import.
Proceed with data validation and import.
Hope this solves the issue.
BR,

Issue in data migration of PO contract (Updating table A215)

Hi All,
I doing data migration for PO contract throught BDC, I wanted to update the table A215,
I can't see the field of A215 on PO contract transaction screen (i.e. Transaction ME33K ).
Can anybody tell me how to load the data in A215 thorugh BDC.
Regards,
Sagar

How is this A215 table maintained manually? Thru ME33K or a different transaction like MEK1?
you are saying you do BDC, are yoou using a SAP given report or did you record the maintenance transaction yourself in SHDB?

Data Migration Opening Balances are not updating in the Report F.08

Hi,
We have uploaded the GL balances in 2008 for the year 2007. But they are not updating in the F.08 report when i executed for 2008.
Why they are not updating in the report. In which table can i check the Data migration values in the system?

Data migration

Dear all my friends,
please help to share me about data migration before go-live FI system.
i plan to migrate GL acct balance, AP/AR open item and last 3 months historical data.
please help to show me : how should i do ?
thanks !

1. Normal GL Accounts: In this case line items are not required and totals are to be updated in SAP. This can be done using GL fast entry if the number is not too high.
2. Open Item Managed GL Accounts: All the open line items are required to be uploaded in SAP from Legacy in order to clear them. Hence, a LSMW / BDC program has to be developed to upload the line items.
BAPI_ACC_DOCUMENT_POST - for GL/AP/AR
BAPI_ACC_INVOICE_RECEIPT_POST - for AP
BAPI_ACC_GL_POSTING_POST - for GL
GL Balance
F-02 or RFBIBL00 or BAPI
Dr GL a/c Credit Data migration Account or Clearing Account
3. Customer & Vendor Open Items: All open line items in Customer and Vendor Accounts have to be brought in into SAP. For this also a LSMW / BDC program needs to be developed and upload the line items.
Vendor Balances
F-02 or RFBIBL00 or BAPI
Credit Vendor a/c (individually) and Dr Data migration Account or Clearing Account
Customer balances
F-02 or RFBIBL00 or BAPI
Dr Customers a/c (individually) and Dr Data migration Account or Clearing Account
4. Asset Accounting: In case asset accounting is implemented the individual balances of each asset (Gross Value and Accumulated Depreciation) have to be uploaded using transaction AS91. For this also you need to develop a LSMW / BDC program. Further, you also need to update the GL Accounts related to Asset Accounts with totals for each asset class T.Code OASV.
For uploading the Assets
AS91 -> for uploading assets in AA
OSAV --> for uploading assets in GL entry Dr Asset (individually) Cr Data migration Account or Clearing Account
You can use LSMW for uploading all these things
After uploading all, your data migration account will become zero

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.

Data Migration from MOSS 2007 to SharePoint 2010

Hi,
We have done a migration project for one of our client.
This migration was done from MOSS 2007 to SharePoint Enterprise Server 2010.
After the migration was completed we developed lot of new webparts, lists ,application pages in this newly migrated farm in SharePoint Enterprise Server 2010.
However the entire project took around 1 year due to some unavoidable delays. During this one year our client was using MOSS 2007 sites for there work. hence the data in MOSS 2007 farm/sites was continuously updated.
Our client needs to go live in next month and also needs the sites/lists/libraries which are migrated in new SP 2010 farm to be updated as per the MOSS 2007 farm.
Kindly suggest best possible way to achieve this data migration since last 1 year from MOSS 2007 to newly migrated SharePoint Enterprise Server 2010 farm.
Kindly note we have done lot of customization and new developments in newly created SP 2010 farm.
Thanks and regards,
Amien

Hi there,
If you have already taken care of customization on SP2010 server. Then use any of the migration tools available in market to migrate data to target SP server.
Content Matrix gives free 25 GB to migrate your SharePoint data (https://www.metalogix.com/Resources/Promotions/Content-Matrix-Migration-Express-Download.aspx).
If you don't know what is changed in last 1 year, then best thing to do is add new content database and migrate your data into it.
Hope that helps.

SAP Data Migration from R/3 4.6C to ECC 6.0

Hey All
We are planning to upgrade SAP R/3 4.6C to ECC 6 in near future. I am aware that data migration is not an issue as upgrade takes care of it all. What we are concerned with is that if after a few days of upgrade when the system is functional and users have performed some quantum of transactions on it, in case if the system fails then and we have to revert back to R/3 4.6C how can we get back all the information that we processed on ECC back to R/3.
I would like to know if anyone who has performed an upgrade, had some kind of fail over strategy for such a situation. Is there some tool we can use for this purpose?
Regards
Bilal Nazir

Simple answer: not possible.
> I would like to know if anyone who has performed an upgrade, had some kind of fail over strategy for such a situation. Is there some tool we can use for this purpose?
No - there is no tool.
Table structures change, update programs changed - it's not possible to "roll back" that to a date and re-do it on 4.6c again.
Do minimize the risk I would copy the production system to a sandbox, do the upgrade and let the (key-) users test their functionality intensively.

How to improve the performance of the Data Migration program ?

Hi All,
I have written a program for Data Migration of Opportunities, but it is taking a lot of time to create or update opportunities.
I have used so many function modules like
" 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT' " -- 8 TIMES
"GUID_CREATE'" -- 4 TIMES
"CRM_ORDER_READ" -- 1 TIME
"CONVERT_INTO_TIMESTAMP" -- 4 TIMES
"CRM_ORDER_MAINTAIN" --- 1 TIME
"CRM_ORDERADM_H_CHANGE_OW" - 1 TIME
"'BAPI_BUSPROCESSND_SAVE" -- 1 TIME
"BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT" -- 1 TIME
"BAPI_BUSPROCESSND_CREATEMULTI" OR "BAPI_BUSPROCESSND_CHANGEMULTI"
and all these function modules are for every record in a loop. for 1000 records it is taking 75 min approximately. How i can improve its performance ?

Hi Raman,
For Performance improvment do the following things:
First Remove the CRM_ORDER_READ and use the tables to get the data and then use Read Statement on Internal Tables.
Second, Instead of BAPI_BUSPROCESSND_CREATEMULTI use BAPI_OPPORTUNITY_CREATEMULTI and then use BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT. No need to use 'BAPI_BUSPROCESSND_SAVE.
Third thing, Not sure why you are creating guid 4 times, No need to generate guid if you use BAPI_OPPORTUNITY_CREATEMULTI. Guid will get generated.
Fourth, instead of using 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT' multiple times, create a variable of req. length and then pass the values.
Hope this helps.

Data migration methods

Hi experts. I am working on a study for a data migration project where data from multiple legacy systems would be moved into SAP. Apart from LSMW and BDC, what are the other useful methods when the data migration involves huge volumes of upload data?

Hi,
Obviously the answer depends to a certain extent on the circumstances of your project (complexity of data, volume, etc) and on the object in question, but here are a few rules of thumb.
If you are new to this I would stay away from IDOCs and BAPIs as the set up is often a little complicated and if there are errors the problem is often not too easy to identify. And IDOC processing is not always as quick as people assume. For example, the customer master IDOC is processed in the background by a call transaction of XD01.
For you I would suggest definitely using LSMW, and where possible within LSMW use the standard uploads. There will be situations where the standard upload does not cover everything (again using customers as an example, it will not include the extended address data or the long texts) but I would still use the standard upload to load as much as you can, and then write a couple of simple update BDC recordings (XD02, XK02, etc) to add what's missing.
Some examples of the standard upload programs are:
Customers - RFBIDE00
Vendors - RFBIKE00
Materials - RMDATIND
All finance transactions - RFBIBL00
Fixed assets - RAALTD01
The standard uploads are normally well documented; they often use BDC (not RMDATIND) so are quite transparent; and they are generally pretty flexible.
There are a few standard uploads which are not so good, such as the sales order load, and to a lesser extent the purchase order load. In these cases you might need to look at using the BAPIs but get help from someone who has used them before.
You might want to use recordings for very simple loads like bank master.
If migrating SAP to SAP, where possible you would look to transfer master data via ALE using IDOCs. But again you need to know what you are doing and it sounds like you are moving from a non-SAP to a SAP system anyway.
Good luck,
Ben

How to get the exact sql developer which used for data migration?

Hi all,
Hope doing well,
Sir i seen a link for data migration that is : http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/sql-developer/sql-server-connection-viewlet-swf-089886.html
in this link when they are connecting to sql database so after clicking on new connection four tab is showing that is oracle, access, my sql, sql server.
i downloaded latest version of sql developer which version is: 3.02.09.30 when i opened this i am not getting those option.
and one more thing i am not getting miragation menu name in menu items.
please help me.
thanks and regards

Hi,
To connect to non-Oracle databases from SQL*Developer youneed to download the relevant JDBC driver.
This is detailed in the documentation in the User Guide -
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E35137_01/appdev.32/e35117.pdf
in the section -
Database: Third Party JDBC Drivers
The Third Party JDBC Drivers pane specifies drivers to be used for connections to third-party (non-Oracle) databases, such as IBM DB2, MySQL, Microsoft SQL Server, or Sybase Adaptive Server. (You do not need to add a driver for connections to Microsoft Access databases.) To add a driver, click Add Entry and select the path for the driver:
■For IBM DB2: the db2jcc.jar and db2jcc_license_cu.jar files, which are available from IBM
■For MySQL: a file with a name similar to mysql-connector-java-5.0.4-bin.jar, in a directory under the one into which you unzipped the download for the MySQL driver
■For Microsoft SQL Server or Sybase Adaptive Server: jtds-1.2.jar, which is included in the jtds-1.2-dist.zip download
■For Teradata: tdgssconfig.jar and terajdbc4.jar, which are included (along with a readme.txt file) in the TeraJDBC__indep_indep.12.00.00.110.zip or TeraJDBC__indep_indep.12.00.00.110.tar download
To find a specific third-party JDBC driver, see the appropriate website (for example, http://www.mysql.com for the MySQL Connector/J JDBC driver for MySQL, http://jtds.sourceforge.net/ for the jTDS driver for Microsoft SQL Server and Sybase Adaptive Server, or search at http://www.teradata.com/ for the JDBC driver for Teradata). For MySQL, use the MySQL 5.0 driver, not 5.1 or later, with SQL Developer release 1.5.
You must specify a third-party JDBC driver or install a driver using the Check for Updates feature before you can create a database connection to a third-party database of that associated type. (See the tabs for creating connections to third-party databases in the Create/Edit/Select Database Connection dialog box.)

Mike

Data migration approach for Scheduling Agreements

Gurus,
Can anyone provide guidance on the data migration approach for Scheduling Agreements? How can we migrate the open delivery schedules and the respective cumulative quantities? The document type being used is "LZ".
Can correction deliveries (Doc type - LFKO) be used update the initial cumulative quantities?
Any help in this regard is higly appreciated.

Gajendra

Hi Zenith
You might find useful information here: IS-U data export (extraction) for EMIGALL.
I've done numerous IS-U migrations in the last 10+ years, but never one from IS-U to IS-U.
One main questions to start with: Are the two systems on the same release level?
If they are not and it would be too much effort to get them onto the same release level I would think creating your own extract programs and using the Migration workbench (EMIGALL) is the way to go.
If they are on the same level, there might possible other ways to do it, dependent on the differences between the two systems (mainly around customising). Assuming there are significant differences - otherwise why would you bother migrating? - there's the high probability that using EMIGALL is the way to go as well.
Yep

hi ,
thank you guys for the support.
i am into a data migration project.
i need the initial setup for the idocs and bapis.
i dont know anything about these so can u send me the process for the setup and the data migration process too with idocs and bapis.
i didnt understand when they asked me if we can data migrate with a ALE, is that the same as using idocs and bapis or is it a different approach.
u can send me at any inofrmation connected to my eamil addr.
i would really appreciate that.
thank you.

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)

Automating Data Migration from SQL Server 2005

Hi All,
I need to migrate data from SQL Server 2005 to Oracle DB ( Datawarehouse). The data migration involves updating Dimensions and Fact table. I have got painful job of switching topology to point to over 100 different weekly SQL DBs ( in sequence) and pull the data into DW. How can I automate my ODI process to switch from one after the other.
Any Ideas?

ODI Variables are there to help you with this. Please go through this post at [http://blogs.oracle.com/dataintegration/2009/05/using_odi_variables_in_topolog.html] .
This will show you how to use a variable Oracle data server.
On similar lines you should be able to switch to any of your 100 weekly SQL server DBs.
And loop in a sequence to load data from all of them.
Hope that helps

Delta data migration on SAP upgread from 4.6C to ECC 6.0

Hi,
We are planning for SAP upgrade in our Production environment and we are facing the below listed constraints and need your advice on the options to peform ECC Upgrade.
1) Present HW resource is already facing bottleneck and so no additional load can be added.
2) We have a completely new HW environment due to which we are unable to perform the test upgrade.
Also, is there anyway to perform the Prepare Activities on new hardware (copy of Production system) first and then do the delta data migration for update of transactional data from present production system to new system (Prepare Activities done on this system) without affecting the Prepare Activities data.
Thanks & Regards,
Pratap

Hi Pratap,
You can first make a copy of you production system on new hardware by homogeneous system copy. Then do the test upgrade if everything will be fine. Then as suggested earlier migrate your production to new hardware and then do the upgrade.
Thanks
Sunny

Thanks in advance.

HI Piyush,
Tyr to use CRM_order_maintain. If you are trying to change partner,pricing,status,header,item then ORDER_MAINTAIN is the good one to use.
Its very easy to identify the parameters that need to be populated for this FM
