Purpose

The purpose of this document is to define the conversion approach to create Portfolio Initiatives in S/4 HANA.

Portfolio Initiatives represents a Program of work in EPPM. A Portfolio Initiative is group of related projects (Portfolio Items) potentially belonging to different Portfolio Buckets for reporting purposes.


Conversion Scope

The scope of this document covers the approach for uploading the  Portfolio Initiatives into S/4HANA following the Portfolio Initiatives Master Data Design Standard 

This is a completely new object for Syensqo with the data being sourced using DCT (Data Collection Template).

No action is required for the Initiative decision points from a data migration perspective.

S/4HANA?


Replicate Initiative to Other Instances: Migration load to be done to ROW instance with replication of Global Initiatives to other S/4 Hana instances (CUI and China) done by batch job as per the business process.  Local initiatives will not be replicated in other instances.

To be included in cut-over strategy document. 

In the Global The Initiative is created. This means the Initiative includes PPM items (Projects) from other instances. then the Initiative is replicated in CUI and China instance. This is to allow the assignment of China and CUI specific PPM items to the  Global Initiative. The Initiative reporting is performed in the SAC reporting tool.reporting is performed in the SAC reporting tool.


Additional Information

Multi-language Requirement

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

Business Data Owner/s to verify that all the data in the load table/file is accurate as per endorsed transformation/mapping rules (and signed-off DCT data).


Load

The load process includes:

  1. Execute the automated data load into target system using load tool or product the load file if the load must be done manually
  2. Once the data is loaded to the target system, it will be extracted and prepared for Post Load Data Validation
  3. Migration load to be done to ROW instance with replication of Global Initiatives to other S/4 Hana instances done by batch job as per business process.   To be included in cut-over strategy document. 
  4. Object link initiative to item.
