The purpose of this document is to define the conversion approach for loading Business Partner – Contact Person Relationships in SAP S/4HANA. In ECC, contact persons are linked to customers using contact-specific tables. In S/4HANA, contact persons are modeled as Business Partners with a relationship type (e.g., BUR001) established between them and the related organization.
The scope of this document covers the approach for converting active Contact Person Relationships from Legacy Source Systems into S/4HANA Business Partner (BP) Relationship Master Data (Type BUR001 – Contact Person).
The data from legacy system includes:
- Individuals classified as contact persons and linked to customers or vendors
- These are typically maintained in legacy systems in contact tables KNVK in ECC.
- Each contact is tied to a customer master record and plays a defined communication or business coordination role.
- Contact Person is within the migration scope
- The relationship assignment is only possible of the corresponding contact person is within the migration scope

The high-level process is represented by the diagram below:
Extract data from a source into . There are 2 possibilities:
- The data exists. connects to the source and loads the data into . There are 3 methods:
- Perform full data extraction from relevant tables in the source system(s).
- Perform extraction through the application layer.
- Only if ; 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 . 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

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:
- 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
- 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

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
