How to test Data migration/conversion?

I'm writing Java scripts to migrate a 8i database to 10g db with totally different schema. My question is after the migration is done, any process/tool that I can use to verify all the data has been migration successfully and completed?
Thanks,
Andy

Does "totally different schema" mean "totally different data model"? If so, there is no automatic way for any tool to ensure that the data in two different data models matches-- you would have to write custom scripts for that sort of thing since only you know how the data is supposed to be translated from one data model to another.

Hi Sangeeta,
I would personally go for a BDC but LSMW should also be possible
If you don't know how to do a BDC just drop me a mail and I send you the details.
Hopefully this one is than solved by the EOD.

E-Recruiting 6.0 SP11 - How to do data migration or batch creation

Hi Experts,
For R/3, we can use BDC programs to do data migration for personnel records.
For E-Recruiting, how do we go about migration of candidate records or batch creation of candidate records (eg, BDC, standard function module, direct append)?
If it is via function module, can you share with me the name of the function module?
Thanks,
William

Hello William,
the Business Partner is an application / module which belongs to the base components of the SAP. It is used and partly extended by various other applications / modules. Next to E-Recruiting it is used for example by CRM and the financial service solution (FS-CS, FS-PM, FS-RI). All of these modules can put their data for a person or an organization into the same tables. Depending on the installation / system environment or even within one single module the requirements for available fields and business checks as on authorization differ between kinds of business partners (e.g. in FS-CS the commission solution for the financial service sector knows external agents and internal employees which have to be treated differently). The business partner is the element to assign the logical / business role in which a person is handled by the system.
For E-Recruiting you have 2 kinds of business partners, too. On the one and there are people being candidates and on the other hand there are branches of your company which hire people. The configuration allows you to seperate them if you need to identify anywhen which business partner is a branch and which is a candidate. So far I never tried if this is really working as there is no real use for this I never set it up. The attributes and the business checks are the same anyways.
Hope that helps a bit to understand the context
Best Regards
Roman Weise
PS: please remember that you have to maintain the branches via administrator bsp application. Using the IMG entry won't work.

Data migration/conversions!!

Hi friends,
1. what type of data CANNOT be uploaded from legacy system into SAP system using BDC/LSMW/BAPI.
2. Which Non-SAP systems wont support the data upload to SAP system. If so, what is the alternative??

Hi,
1. All kind of data can be uploaded in SAP. You may require to do some conversion to load into SAP.
2. Mostly all the systems support data uploead, as they are not directly connected with SAP. We mostly download data from those system in flat files and upload in SAP.

Test data migration system

Hi Experts,
Can anyone help me to know what exactly is SAP TDMS and how does it support and what it supports only R/3 or BW wtc.

Does any one know any other product which supports for ECC,APO, BW etc.
Please help experts.
thank
ram

Hi,
We are doing a research on SAP TDMS as we are planning to implement but at the same time we are looking for similar products like what other companies are offering and what other SAP companies are using, as We have heard that SAP TDMS is too costly and offers support only to ECC & R/3 .
My question, is there any product that is similar to SAP TDMS that is less in cost and offers more services to look into ECC, BW,AP0,R/3 etc,.and
secondly what other companies are using .
Please do reply.
Thanks.

2.Upload contracts from legacy system into SRM then interface with the existing ones in R/3

4. Can you upload more than 5000 contract line items
5.Load contracts from legacy system into SRM then distribute to R/3
6.Contracts loaded from either legacy system or R/3 can they be uploaded with their attachments and save those attachments to C-folders.
7. Once contracts are upload to SRm and there is chnages in R/3 will there be automatic update (e.g. Material flagged for deletion)
8. Once contract has been distributed to R/3 from SRM, can updates happen automatically
Rgs,
Maggie

Hi Dina,
Thanks for your reply.
Well based on your suggestion i am gonna follow the following points. Kindly let me know if anything wrong in these.
1) To bring the the transactions which were closed and entered as the opening balances in Oracle GL then we can bring them as one consolidated distributed & accounted expenditure or summerized by resouces categories (Labor,Material,Subcontractor,Usage,Misc.). and post them in one PA/GL period.
2) All the open purchase orders/rececipt accural , supplier invoices,Inventory cost will be imported from the respective sub ledgers(Purchasing,AP,INV).
2) For AR invoices and revenue we create one mannul event and generate the one consolidated Invoice and recognized the revenue. Post both Invoice and revenue in same period where the historical cost is posted.

How to test a migration to a new hardware platform ?

Hello members,
I read this procedure :
http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/backup.102/b14191/rcmrecov002.htm
But it's related to 10g.
I have a 9.2.0.7 platform and i'd like to restore database on a new platform without stopping production.
I didn't install instance on the new platform, only binaries have been installed.
What is the best method to do that ?
Many thanks for your help.
Guillaume

If the platforms are binary compatiable you can copy the database files from one server to another and start the database on the new server. You want to use the same version of the OS. This will not work for moving from Sun to HP or even on the same vendor hardware if the hardware uses a different chip set (processor HP owns vs Intel inside).
But I like exp/imp. This allows you to lay out and build the new version of the database to match you new disk setup and to rearrange you database objects as desired for managment. (Recreate dictionary managed tablespaces as locally managed, separate very large table to its own tablespace, etc ...)

Data migration i Finance

can anyone help me how the <b>data migration</b> works in finance in short description

Hello
Data migration from legacy to SAP is responsibility of various module leads.
Assuming you are responsible for FI, the data could be GL /AP/AR/AA master data and balances.
While there are tools to upload, the first thing is mapping the legacy data with SAP data.
What fields are available in SAP and whether they meet the legacy requirements. After this excercise, the ABAPer would make a conversion program. This could be tested in any of the test clients.
As far as the field in PO are concerned, open a created PO, sit with a MM guy and decide on the mandatory fields and map with legacy.

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

15. Tax history information, including AXCIS
17. Service Requests

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'.

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

DBCS data migration

I need to migrate client data from on premise oracle database (11g) to cloud database . I went through this website which talks about all possibvle ways to load dbcs database tables , http://www.ateam-oracle.com/loading-data-in-oracle-database-cloud-service/ . I am mostly interested in Using outbound SOAP and REST invocation APIs . But I am not very sure how to approach this process . Can someone guide me what should be high level steps that need to be taken if I want to transfer data from table A in an Oracle database to a cloud database table using SOAP and REST ? I am using the trial version of Oracle cloud database .
From my initial investigation I think , there has to be a PL/SQL code written in on premise database whcih can read data from database tables and transfer that to cloud table . On cloud side , we need to write a REST service which will have a PL/SQL code to POST this data to the cloud tables . If this is true , then if you could guide me with a sudo code for PL/SQL on on-premise databse side that would be helpful too .
Also I am aware and have tested data migration using SQL developer , but I dont think this is appropiate for heavy data load , again you can correct if I am wrong here , or if you are using any better migrate enterprise wide data please do share your experience .
Regards
Bond
