Purpose

The purpose of this document is to define the conversion approach of Profit Centres into S/4 HANA.  Profit Centres

The document details out the field list, extraction criteria, scoping, mapping of cost centre object

  

Profit Centres will be constructed based on the target design and a DCT(Constructed data based on Data Collection Template) will be provided to Syniti for subsequent processing. Along with the DCT, a mapping file of legacy(ECC) to target(S4) will be provided for dependent master and transaction objects.Cost Centres will be extracted from Source and based on the list of cost centres from the cost centre mapping sheet, target cost centre data file will be 

Conversion Scope

Profit Centres which will be listed as part of scope list with new numbering will be in scope of migration. 

List of source systems and approximate number of records 

Note:  All the Profit Centres to be migrated will be collected.  Therefore, Profit Centres are not going to be extracted from source and details given below is given for information purpose only.

Additional Information

Multi-language Requirement

In the Syensqo Profit Centres, the following four language keys must be maintained:
 - English (EN)
 - French (FR)
 - Italian (IT)
 - Chinese (ZN)
Note: For certain countries it may be required to also maintain account descriptions for certain Profit Centres in local language as per regulatory requirement (e.g. Japanese) in the respective country. Such requests must be backed by supporting evidence of the underlying regulatory requirement.
Such data will be collected as part of DCT for the translation texts for Profit Centres.

Data Privacy and Sensitivity


Extraction

Extract data from a source into . There are 2 possibilities:

  1. The data exists. connects to the source and loads the data into . There are 3 methods:
    1. Perform full data extraction from relevant tables in the source system(s).
    2. Perform extraction through the application layer.
    3. Only if ; cannot connect to the source, data is loaded to the repository from the provided source system extract/report.
  2. The data does not exist (or cannot be converted from its current state). The data is manually collected by the business directly in . This is to be conducted using DCT (Data Collection Template) in

The agreed Relevancy criteria is applied to the extracted records to identify the records that are applicable for the Target loads

Transformation

The Target fields are mapped to the applicable DCT field that will be its source.  

Note:  as this object is DCT, the mapping rule for all the fields is 'Copy'  as described in the transform rule section. However, some reports are to be created and executed to ensure integrity in the data collected in DCT as described in 'Pre-load Data Validation' section. 

This step identifies the transformation activity required to allow  to make the data Target ready:

  1. Prepare target-ready data in the target structure and format that is required for loading via prescribed Load Tool in the load section.
  2. Produce the preload reports as requested in the 'Preload Data Validation' section.

Transformation

The Target fields are mapped to the applicable Legacy field that will be its source, this is a 3-way activity involving the Business, Functional team and Data team.  This identifies the transformation activity required to allow to make the data Target ready:

  1. Perform value mapping and data transformation rules.
    1. Legacy values are mapped to the to-be values (this could include a default value)
    2. Values are transformed according to the rules defined in
  2. Prepare target-ready data in the structure and format that is required for loading via prescribed Load Tool.  This step also produces the load data ready for business to perform Pre-load Data Validation

TaskActionCheck values in key fields for accuracy

Post-load reports will have the same structure as the load file and some additional columns as required to facilitate the post load validation.

Leverage on tool to create a Post Load report that reports S/4HANA loaded records along with the legacy values side-by-side to allow for 100% check of all these fields in the shortest possible time.

Any mismatch will be reported under the Post Load - Error report.
