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.
Regards,
Ramaa

Data conversion from legacy : through BOM or recipe for a process industry?

Hi all
I am working on data migration document for BOM , ROUTING, PROD VER. My question is whether during migration from legacy we should first migrate the Recipe and add the comp no for creating BOM in mass creation , Or that we should bring the BOMs directly from the legacy? Which method is better from strategic point ?

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'.

Data conversion from legacy to SAP

Hi
I am put on covnersion of legacy data and given options to use the one of the following tools
LSMW
CATT
DTW
I am new to all this. I have to migrate the following data
GL Master
GL Open Balance
AP Master Data
AP Opn items
Fixed Asset Master
Fixed Asset Balance
Proft Centers Master Data
cost Center Data
Can youspecify which of the tools is most suitable for the conversion in each case?
please can anyone reply?
EMENEM

CATT is not a Data Uploading tool. It will work till 4.7EE.
You cannot see CATT after 4.7EE.
If the Data is bulk then Go for BDC (Batch data Communication) Else use LSMW (Legacy System Migratration Workbench)
again it Depends on your Requirement and your Perfectness.

Sql loader loading data from legacy to Oracle

Hi
we have a requirement that we need to import data from legacy to oracle AR.We know that we need to put the data file in BIN folder,but I want to know about the data file source if we place in windows folder instead of BIN directory will SQL loader picks the file and loads the data.
Thanks
Y

Yes,
Refer this
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/utilities/htdocs/sql_loader_overview.html
* Load data across a network. This means that a SQL*Loader client can be run on a different system from the one that is running the SQL*Loader server.
* Load data from multiple datafiles during the same load session
* Load data into multiple tables during the same load session
* Specify the character set of the data
* Selectively load data
* Load data from disk, tape, or named pipe
* Specify the character set of the data
* Generate sophisticated error reports, which greatly aid troubleshooting
* Load arbitrarily complex object-relational data
* Use either conventional or direct path loading.

Data load from Legacy system to BW Server through BAPI

Requirements: We have different kind of legacy systems and SAP BW server. We want to load all legacy system data into SAP BW server using BAPI. Before loading we have to validate all data. If there are bad data, data missing we have to let the legacy system user/ operator knows to fix the data into their system with detail explanation. When it is fixed, we have to load the data again.
Load Scenario: We have two options to load data from legacy systems to BW Server.
1. We need to load data directly from legacy system to BW Server using BAPI program.
2. Legacy Systems data would be in workstations or flash drive as .txt (one line separated by comma) or .csv file. Need to load from .txt /.csv file to BW Server using BAPI program.
What we want in the BAPI program code?
It will Read / Retrieve data from text / csv file and will put into the Internal table. Internal table structure would be based on BAPI InfoObject structure.
Call BAPI InfoObject function module BAPI_IOBJ_CREATE to create InfoObject, include all necessary / default components, do the error check, load the data and return the status.
Could some one help me with the sample code please? I am new in ABAP / BAPI coding.
Is there any other better idea to load data from legacy system to BW server? BTW we are using BW 3.10. Is there any better option with BI 7.0 to resolve the issue? I appreciate your help.

my answers:
1. this is a scendario for a data push into SAP BW. You can only use SOAP-Based Transfer of Data.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/fd/8012403dbedd5fe10000000a155106/frameset.htm
(here for BW 3.5, but you'll find similar for 7.0)
In this scenario you'll have an RFC dinamically created for every Infosource you need to transfer data.
2. You can make a chain for each data load, so you can call the RFC "RSPC_API_CHAIN_START" to start the chain from external.
the second solution is more simply and available on every release.

How to load date field from a remote Oracle DB with DB Connect

Hi,
Does any one have experience extracting Date field from a remote Oracle database through DB Connect to BW? I am experiencing data format issue. The extracted data shows '04-Oct-0' for '10/4/05'. It works fine if I create a view in Oracle database to preformat the data to '20051004'. But, I am not allowed to create view in Remote DB.
Any suggestion is very appreciated.
Regards,
Frank

You have to change it to a varchar2 field. YYYYMMDD. I do not know of any other option.

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
3. Business Partner Relationships
4. Active Campaigns/Campaign Content/Dispositions
5. Connection Object
6. Contacts
7. Contracts
8. Opportunities
9. Payment Arrangement History
10. Payments
11. Premises
12. Rate Changes
13. Security Deposits
these are few and there are some more..,
Thanks in Advance,
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

Capture XML data payload into database table (Oracle EBS R12)

Hi All,
We have a XML Publisher report which generates output in PDF format. We want to capture the XML data payload generated by this report and put it into a DB table once the PDF is generated.
This report is generated through Oracle EBS R12 and XML Payload is stored by oracle by default in $APPLCSF/out directory.
Any pointers would be helpful
br

Couple of options, this one is probably the easiest without knowing other requirements (e.g., do you have to store the output as XML, or do you just the data available so you can output in XML later?).
Capture the SQL statement that generates the output in the first place. If you have that statement, you can insert into some table using the select statement. Once you have the report data (and you can tag that particular set of data with a job ID, timestamp, whatever, in case you need to store it and distinguish it from other reports down the road), you can generate XML output using the PL/SQL built-in DBMS_XMLGEN.
Is that what you are looking for?

Importing Expense Report from legacy to Oracle Payables??

All,
I need to import ER from legacy to payables. I used ap_expense_reports_headers_all & ap_expense_report_lines_all tables. But the "Expense Report Program" is not picking up the data from the tables though i populated all the required columns of the tables!!! When i open the "View Output" it says "The conc.request did not create an output file"!!!
Can anyone tell me what could be the reason behind the failure of the program?
Do I need to populate anyother column to resolve this issue?
Detailed response is highly appreciated.
thanks in advance,
Sen

Steps to import into AP
Navigate to the Accounts Payable Responsibility
Go to View -> Requests -> Submit a New Request -> Single Request -> OK
Submit the Expense Report Export Program, after specifying all the mandatory parameters
Source parameter should 'Oracle Internet Expenses'
To view the expense report created
Navigate to the Accounts Payable Responsibility attached to the User
Go to Invoices -> Entry -> Invoices
In the Invoice Workbench Window query the Invoice Num field with the Name of the Expense Report created in the previous step. The Invoice is displayed in the Invoice Workbench with the Type as Expense Report

ERPI: Data Loading problem Hyperion Planning & Oracle EBS

Hi
I am trying to load data from Oracle EBS to Hyperion Planning.
When i push data Zero rows are inserted in Target.
When i look at Table " SELECT * FROM TDATASEG "
It is showing me data but it is not comminting data in Target application.
The reason is Data difference in Source (EBS) and Target.
In my source Year is 2013 but in Target 'FY14' so for Entity Source is '21' but Target is '2143213'
Can you please let me know how to solve this issue?
can i place a Lookup table for this in EPRI.
i am using EPRI and ODI to push data.
Regards
Sher

Have you setup the data load mapping correctly to map the source value to the proper target value? Based on what you are describing it seems that the system generated * to * map is being used, if you are mapping a source to a different target, this needs to be added to the data load mapping.

Data Migration from Legacy system to ECC systems via ETL through SAP PI

Hi All,
I wanted to know if we can migrate the data from Legacy systems to ECC systems via PI.
What I understand is there is ETL tool is used to extract the data from legacy system, and what client is looking to load that data via PI?
Can we do that ? I am concerned because this will involve mass data?
If I have to use PI , I see option of PROXY / IDOC /FILE as receiver in ECC system (take the data from ETL)?
Can somebody has done this earlier , please share the approach.
Thanks,
Pushkar Patel

Hi ,
I require few details from you.
1. What ETL tool you are using, If Informatica, it already have PowerConnect to connect to SAP. So you can create source and Target Structure and also you can use RFC's to send data to R/3. Else, for other ETL tools, can you prepare RFC's or any other way to send data to R/3. let me know the tool.
2. Does R/3 contains the master data tables? If yes, then try to use LSMW for Mass upload of data to tables.
If your client don't want to use either of these options please elaborate, what is the case.

Master data upload from legacy

Dear All,
We are supposed to upload the master data from legacy system to SAP using LSMW and BDCs.
Is it possible to develop an interface between legacy system and SAP ERP for a direct data transfer? Can this be accomplished using XI?
Is the scenario asked by my team as above recommended by SAP?
regards, Sean.

Yes I think u can use XI to create an interface to transfer data from legacy system to R/3 also u can use other middle ware like webmethods to do the same. U can use ALE/EDI technology to transfer data as idoc .
