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.
How can we know in the market what other companies are using like, are they are using SAP TDMS or any other product similar to SAP TDMS.
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.

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.

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 .

Bond

Sandbox system- Test data

Hi,
I am not sure which section to post this thread.
Can anybody provide me with a document, that gives the basic steps to be configured in a sandbox system to create test data.
We have a sandbox system installed and we have the test data in text files related to SD,MM,FI and IS-Retail modules around 280 tables.
I need to know the basic configuration that has to be made for an IDES system to import all this test data and what is the easiest method for importing all these flat files and prepare it as a test system. The client wants this to be done in 2 or 3 days. I am not sure if that is possible.
Could anybody please advice

> Source System(Production): Solaris 10/Oracle (NW SP17 and ECC 6.0 with Ehp3(DIMP, SAP-APPL and EA-APPL)
> Target System(Sandbox) : Windows 2K3/Oracle
> 1. Since we are having Ehp3 in source system, is there any impact while doing the system copy?
> 2. How to prepare the target system with same patch level of SAP software components as our source system
You can't do the system copy as "I install a new system and overwrite the database".
There are a few points to consider:
a) a heterogeneous system copy requires a certified migration consultant on-site, otherwise you'll loose support for problems during the migration and for the target system (see http://service.sap.com/osdbmigration and Hinweis 82478 - SAP System OS/DB Migration).
b) the only supported way of doing such a migration is using R3load as the tool of choice. You'll have to start sapinst on the source system, export your database and import it into the target system
c) direct database copies are not possible (Solaris SPARC is a BigEndian platform, Windows is LIttleEndian, Windows won't be able to open the files created by Solaris)

Not able to change the data of test data containers in production system

Dear All,
We have created eCATT scripts in Development SolMan System and moved the transports to Production SolMan System. Customer wants to change the data at Test data containers and run the scripts in production system but we are not able to edit the data.
May be the reason is SCC4 transaction code has set the below option.
Changes and transports for client-specific Objects
u2022 No changes allowed
Customer doesnu2019t want to change the above option and wanted to change the test data containers to give different datau2019s and run the eCATT scripts.
Could you please let me know the solution for this?
Your help is really appreciated.
Thanks,
Mahendra

eCatt has the feature where you don't need to transport the scripts or test configuration to our target system. We can keep all our scripts and test data in Solman and run this script any other system in your landscape using the System data container and target system.
Maintain the production as one of the target system in System container in Solman and point that system while running the script. Change the test data in Solman to run this script.
Let me know if you need more information
thanks

Data migration from legacy system to SAP

hi all,
could you please post some docs on migration from legacy system to SAP system., also the problems faced while migration and best practices in data migration
regards
sridharan

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.

2. Actuate Reports
3. Active Campaigns/Campaign Content/Dispositions
4. Contacts
5. Contracts
6. Opportunities
7. Payment Arrangement History

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

Data Migration from R3 to new ECC System

Hello,
We are doing a fresh implementation for SAP MDM. Currently we have 3 SAP R/3 systems and 1 non-R3 system (BPCS system). One of the project goals is to do data migration from all these 4 systems into a new SAP ECC system and to MDM for Vendor Master, Customer Master and Material Master. My manager says that we need Business Objects tool to Migrate these data. But, my question is that is it not possible to achive this through XI/PI itself ? Can anyone let me know the entire process in XI/PI as to how do I receive the Idocs from R/3, convert into XML and then send it to the new ECC system in Idoc format ?
Thks & Rgds,
Hema

Hi Gandhi,
You have SAP MDM, BPC and R/3 systems in your landscape, when you are migrating data to new ECC system, what is the role of mdm, did you moving the same data to MDM to avoid duplicate/redundant data??is there any data migration from R/3 to MDM(any integration required)or MDM to R/3,
You have to develop different interfaces to transfer data from MDM to ECC, BPC to ECC.definelty you required one middleware, the option definitely SAP PI. it offers very easy of integration between MDM and R/3 system, you can use MDM-PI adapter to connect to directly MDM syndicator file port from there you can pull the XML file and convert it in to IDoc format use Receiver IDoc adapter in PI, the same way we can integrate BPC system with R/3.
Search in sdn, there are some scenarios integration of R/3 and MDM using PI, refer those links, if still you have any doubts let me know,
Regards,
Raj

Oracle Legacy System to SAP Data Migration

Hi Experts,
New to data migration:
Can you guide me in how oracle staging is useful for data migration:
Here is my few doubts:
1. What is Oracle Staging?
2. How Oracle staging is useful for data migration?
3. I see few ETL tools for data migration such as Informatica, Ascential Datastage etc. but our requirement is how can we use oracle staging for data migration?
4. What are the benefits in using oracle staging for data migration?
Expecting your response of above queries.
Thanks,
--Kishore

Here is my few doubts:
1. What is Oracle Staging?It is where ODI creates temporary tables. It does the transformation and if required cleans the data aswell.
2. How Oracle staging is useful for data migration?ODI loads source data into temporary tables(staging) and applying all the required mappings, staging filters, joins and constraints. The staging area is a separate area in the RDBMS (a user/database) where Oracle Data Integrator creates its temporary objects and executes some of the rules (mapping, joins, final filters, aggregations etc.). When performing the operations this way, Oracle Data Integrator behaves like an E-LT as it first extracts and loads the temporary tables and then finishes the transformations in the target RDBMS.
3. I see few ETL tools for data migration such as Informatica, Ascential Datastage etc. but our requirement is how can we use oracle staging for data migration?
4. What are the benefits in using oracle staging for data migration?You can refer https://blogs.oracle.com/dataintegration/entry/designing_and_loading_your_own
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E21764_01/integrate.1111/e12643/intro.htm#autoId10
Expecting your response of above queries.
