  • Migrate all Open Sales Orders From Legacy System (SAP) To SAP System using

    Hi Experts,
                 I've to Migrate all Open Sales Orders From Legacy System (SAP) To SAP System using Business Objects with a new SALES ORDER DOCUMENT NUMBER referencing the older one.
               I'll get all the required data with field in an excel file.
                 Does any standard transaction exist for it ? Or how to go ahead with it ?
    Thanks and regards,

    Hi
    If you are checking for CREATE option then Sales Doc Type
    For more Info goto SWO1 transaction -> BUS2032 --> DIsplay --> Execute --> There SELECT the method which you want to perform... There you can fine the MANDATORY parameters also....
    Or in DISPLAY mode PLACE Cursor on the Required Method and CLick the PARAMETERS button on toolbar...
    That will show the MANDATORY parameters...
    Reward if helpful....

  • Uploading data from a view in legacy system to SAP

    Hi,
    I am developing a custom table in sap. The data in this table will be loaded from a view which exists in the clients legacy system (Oracle db).There will be no middleware for the data transfer.
    How can this be done in SAP? Can anybody provide a detailed procedure to do this?
    Thanks in advance !!!!

    Hi
    Is the Legacy system capable of calling 'BAPI' or 'RFC'.
    If yes, than you can create a RFC function module and with in the function module, you can write code to populate values to ZTABLE.
    When the Legacy system calls the RFC with values, your Ztable will be updated

  • What is the diff b/w flat file and legacy system?

    Hi everyone,
           when v say v r working on scenario FILE to FILE? which format of file r v usually working on? and what is the diff b/w flat file and legacy system?
    thanx

    Hi,
    <i>when v say v r working on scenario FILE to FILE? which format of file r v usually working on?</i>
    >>>Many a times it will be a Flat file with CSV format,Tab delimited format, fixedlength fields.
    <i>what is the diff b/w flat file and legacy system?</i>
    >>>We can not differeniate like this..
    Flat file may come from any systems, it may be live system or legacy system.
    Legacy system- is something like old, or past one. If you talk about SAP , then older versions of SAP can be  called as a legacy system.
    So it may be a file system, or any system which is old version but it doesnot mean it is not in use,

    hi jyothi ,
       there are lot of ways of doing it depending on data upload volume it will be decided .
    1) thru abap bdc program which directly uses XL sheet data and creates SO using bapi/FMs.
    2) using scat.functional consultant should be good enough to use this.
    3)lsmw-laborious procedure but achievable.

  • Open Internal Orders from legacy system

    Hi,
    Is there a way to bring over open projects (Internal Orders) from legacy system into SAP?, especially the way to bring over legacy cost information collected on such projects.
    Would appreciate any help,

    Hi
    As such you cannot do this. You download your Legacy system data to an excel sheet and then upload the PO details into SAP using  an LSMW etc.

  • Importing Foreign Currency AR & AP Invoices from Legacy system via DTW

    Hi all,
    We're in the process of importing legacy AP and AR transactions using the DTW (Data Transfer Workbench). We've come across an "interesting" issue which I'm sure other implementers must have come across.
    It's quite straight forward importing Local Currency Invoices using the DTW (in our case the LC is GBP).
    However when we want to import invoices in foriegn currency (in our case either EUR or USD), the customer also has a "set" GBP value for these Invoices, e.g.
    550 USD (Business Partner/Document Currency which is a FC) - this is  is the actual Document value
    330 GBP (Local Currency value at that posting date in the legacy system)
    What basically seems to happen in SAP Business One is that firstly it needs an exchange rate defined for the posting date that it's going into SBO for and secondly, even though we added the additional RowTotalFC column to the DTW template and explicity stated the Sterling value in the LineTotal column, it's STILL translating to LC based on the exchange rate from the posting date.
    There's too many invoices to create manually and ideally these need to go in via the DTW. Have any of you come across a situation such as this when, using the DTW, the Sterling value for imported foreign invoices needs to explicity be a certain value?
    Does anyone how to handle this in the DTW?
    Any help will be appreciated.
    Many thanks,
    Mohsen

    Hi Mohsen,
    In my opinion, it is impractical to duplicate legacy data to B1. You either accept B1's logic or calculate all rates backwards (nearly impossible).
    To match with old system transaction by transaction will not going to work.
    Thanks,

    For creating/uploading the master data from legacy system to SAP we either use below options
    1. BDC (recording)
    2. BAPI
    3. ALE iDoc.
    I would sugguest you to use BAPI and there's already this post which explains few details about the BAPI:

  • IDOC/BAPI for Production order creation from Legacy system

    Hi all
    We are using an interface to create Production orders from legacy to SAP. Would you recommend an IDOC or a BAPI to create Production orders. If IDOC or BAPI then could you please mention which one?
    thanks a bunch

    Hi John,
    For your purposes, please use BAPI for production order creation from legacy system. There is no standard inbound IDoc available to use. SAP has an IDoc for outbound interface only (message type LOIPRO).
    If there is an inbound IDoc available, I would recommend to use an IDoc.
    IDoc technology has excellent error handling and will allow you to reprocess an error (if any).
    BAPI is also good approach to use and fast in term of  processing.
    For BAPI approach, you can use BAPI BAPI_PRODORD_CREATE.
    Hope this will help.
    Regards,
    Ferry Lianto

  • Updating REBZG (Invoice Reference) from Legacy system

    Need help with updating REBZG (Invoice Ref.) for credit memos.  We are using the BAPI_ACC_DOCUMENTxx series of function modules to post invoices from our legacy system.  It correctly places a u2018Vu2019 in REBZG.  We would like to replace this with the document number from the original invoice. 
    I can create a table of  all credit memos to be updated, but do not know where to insert code to update this field. (both open & closed invoices)
    Any help would be appreciated.

    i think it is either the user exit or the BTE FM. You can use one of these 2 options to update REBZG. I would prefer to use the BTE then the CMOD user exit.
    Where ever you call the bapi add the REZBG value to extension1. Only when extension1 is populated in the BAPI it will hit the exit or the BTE FM.  Here you can move the extension value to rebzg and set check to N.

  • Upload of historical data from legacy system

    Dear forum
    We are running standard SOP with transaction MC88 in ECC6.0.
    We are doing forecasting on material/plant level, based on historical data (we create the sales plan from transaction MC88).
    Now, the problem is that we are introducing new products into SOP, but there is no historical data in SAP for those materials.
    Is there any way we can import historical data into SAP from legacy system, so that SOP would take this data into account when calculating the forecast?
    Note: we do not want to build anything in flexible planning. Just want to check whether or not it is possible to import historical values from a legacy system, to use as historical data in SAP.
    Thanks in advance
    Lars

    Thanks,
    But that will not help us.
    Any ohter suggestions out there?

  • Importing Opening Balances from Legacy System

    Hi All,
    I am trying to import opeing balances for Items, Vendors and Customers and GL a/c from legacy system to SAP B1.
    Can anay one of you suggest the process involved at SAP B1 end for importing the balances?
    I know DTW can be used, but can anyone explain the process for SAP B1?
    I would appriciate your time spent on answering this.

    G/L A/c Balances have to brought in as the last step.  You can use the Journal Entry to enter the opening balances or Administration > System Initialization > Opening Balance
    BP Balances can be imported using DTW templates for Invoices, Credit Memo's etc.  There are examples in the DTW folder.
    Inventory Balances can be imported using the Stock taking template and the Cost of the Items can be imported as a price list and the Inventory > Inventory Transactions > Initial Quantities, Inventory Tracking and Stock Posting.
    Using the stock posting tab you can reconcile the inventory based on the pricelist to which you had imported the Inventory costs.
    If you need more details pls let me know
