Purpose
The purpose of this document is to define the conversion approach for assigning the Business Partner role BUP001 (Contact) in SAP S/4HANA. In S/4HANA, Business Partner roles define the context in which a BP can be used. The BUP001 role is essential for identifying individuals as contact persons within customer and vendor relationships.
Conversion Scope
Customer Contact Person
The scope of this document covers the approach for converting active Contact Person from Legacy Source Systems into S/4HANA Business Partner (BP) Relationship Master Data Design Standard.
The data from legacy system includes:
- An individual is created with minimal information such as Name, Last Name, email address and assigned as a contact person for a customer.
- An individual is assigned in the customer master, partner functions in scope under partner type (TPAR-NRART) "AP - Contact Person". For Example, partner function CP - Contact Person (PF2), Q1 -
QM Cert. Recipient 1 (PF2), Z6 - Z6 SDS Receiver - Sales (WP2), ZY - Z6 SDS Receiver - Sales (WP2) and etc.
- The contact person created for the Customers object 3007 in scope.
The data from legacy system excludes:
- Contacts marked as deleted or obsolete in the legacy system.
- Contacts not linked to any customers within scope.
| Source | Scope | Source Approx No. of Records | Target System | Target Approx No. of Records |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| WP2 | Customer Contact Person | 150,000 | S4 Hana ROW | 150,000 |
| PF2 | Customer Contact Person | 150,000 | S4 Hana ROW | 150,000 |
| WP2 | Customer Contact Person | 150,000 | S4 Hana China | 150,000 |
| PF2 | Customer Contact Person | 150,000 | S4 Hana China | 150,000 |
Vendor Contact Person
The data from legacy system includes:
Vendors found in KNVK-LIFNR which pass Relevancy Rules under Data Object (3007-Business Partners - General (Role 000000)) will be assigned with Contacts available from Legacy.
- BP contacts which are marked as approved in the DCT which are also under these Data Objects (3007-Business Partners - General (Role 000000) and CNV-3027 Business Partners - Plants / Intercompany Suppliers)).
The data from legacy system excludes:
-
Contacts marked as deleted or obsolete in the legacy system. - BP contacts that are marked as not approved in the DCT table,

Conversion Process
The high-level process is represented by the diagram below:
The ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) process is a structured approach to data migration and management, ensuring high-quality data is seamlessly transferred across systems. Here’s a breakdown of its key components:
1. Extraction
The process begins with extracting metadata and raw data from source systems, such as Syensqo ECC system (i.e., WP2/PF2) periodically or from Data Collection Template (DCT). The extracted data is then staged for transformation.
2. Transformation
Once extracted, the data undergoes cleansing, consolidation, and governance. This step ensures data integrity, consistency, and compliance with business rules. The transformation process includes:
- Data validation to remove inconsistencies.
- Standardization to align formats across datasets.
- Business rule application to refine data for operational use.
3. Loading
The transformed data is then loaded into the target S4 Hana system.
The high-level process for Vendor contacts, where there is no source data or enrichment is required, is represented by the diagram below:
Data Privacy and Sensitivity
The object contains the exact contact information of a specific individual. This data must be handled with great care.Extraction
Extract data from a source into Syniti Migrate. There are 2 possibilities:
- The data exists. Syniti Migrate connects to the source and loads the data into Syniti Migrate. There are 3 methods:
- Perform full data extraction from relevant tables in the source system(s).
- Perform extraction through the application layer.
- Only if Syniti Migrate cannot connect to the source, data is loaded to the repository from the provided source system extract/report.
- The data does not exist (or cannot be converted from its current state). The data is manually collected by the business directly in Syniti Migrate. This is to be conducted using DCT (Data Collection Template) in Syniti Migrate
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 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 Syniti Migrate
to make the data Target ready:
- Perform value mapping and data transformation rules.
- Legacy values are mapped to the to-be values (this could include a default value)
- Values are transformed according to the rules defined in Syniti Migrate
- 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

Transformation Dependencies
List the steps that need to occur before transformation can commence| Item # | Step Description | Team Responsible |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Source Data Integrity - Ensure extracted data is complete, accurate, and consistent. - Validate that data types and formats align with transformation requirements. | Syniti |
| 2 | Referential Integrity - Ensure dependent records are transformed together or in advance | Syniti |
| 3 | Transformation Logic and Mapping - Define data mapping rules between source and target schemas. | Data Team |
| 4 | Performance and Scalability Considerations - Optimize transformation processes for large datasets. - Ensure system resources can handle transformation workloads | Syniti |
| 5 | Logging and Error Handling - Maintain detailed logs of transformation activities. - Define error-handling procedures for failed transformations | Syniti |
Pre-Load Validation
Project Team
The following pre-load validations will be performed by the Project Team.Completeness
| Task | Action |
|---|---|
Validate the record count | Verify that the data extracted from the legacy system or DCT is complete and accurate by comparing record counts and contact person against the source system |
Validate the mandatory fields | Validate there is value for all the mandatory fields |
Accuracy
| Task | Action |
|---|---|
Validate the transformation | Verify that all transformation rules have been correctly applied and that transformed fields display the expected target values |
Validate the extraction | Verify that all copied fields accurately reflect the source system values to ensure the extraction process has correctly transferred the data. |
Business
The following pre-load validations will be performed by the Business.Completeness
| Task | Action |
|---|---|
Validate the record count | Verify that the data extracted from the legacy system or DCT is complete and accurate by comparing record counts and contact person against the source system |
Validate the mandatory fields | Validate there is value for all the mandatory fields |
Accuracy
| Task | Action |
|---|---|
Validate the transformation | Validate the fields which require transformation have the value after transformation instead of the original field value |
Validate the extraction | Verify that all copied fields accurately reflect the source system values to ensure the extraction process has correctly transferred the data. |
Load
The load process includes:
- Execute the automated data load into target system using load tool or product the load file if the load must be done manually
- Once the data is loaded to the target system, it will be extracted and prepared for Post Load Data Validation
Load Run Sheet
| Item # | Step Description | Team Responsible |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Load Scope Definition - Identify the target system and database structure. - Define data objects (tables, fields, records) to be loaded. - Establish business rules for data validation. | Data team |
| 2 | Load Methodology - Specify the loading tools and technologies (Migration Cockpit, LSMW, custom loading program). | Syniti |
| 3 | Data Quality and Validation - Ensure data integrity checks (null values, duplicates, format validation). - Perform pre-load validations to verify completeness. - Define error handling mechanisms for load failures | Syniti |
| 4 | Load Execution Plan - Establish execution timelines and batch processing schedules. - Assign responsibilities for monitoring execution. - Document dependencies on other migration tasks | Syniti |
| 5 | Logging and Reporting - Maintain detailed logs of loading activities. - Generate summary reports on loaded data volume and quality. - Define escalation procedures for errors | Syniti |
Load Phase and Dependencies

Post-Load Validation
Project Team
Completeness
| Task | Action |
|---|---|
Validate Record count in the backend | Validate the main tables BUT100 is loaded. |
Display Records | Pick up few random BP numbers, and Run the BP Report to validate the BUP001 information can be displayed without any error |
Accuracy
| Task | Action |
|---|---|
| Check 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. |
Business
Completeness
| Task | Action |
|---|---|
| Record Count Check | Review the record count report from the Data Team and ensure it is correct by cross-checking with the record count confirmed during Pre-load Business Validations |
Accuracy
| Task | Action |
|---|---|
| Spot check | Business should choose some business partners, display the contact person with transaction code "BP" and perform comprehensive check on all loaded details |
Key Assumptions
- Master Data Standard is up to date as on the date of documenting this conversion approach and data load.
- 3011 is in scope based on data design and any exception requested by business.
