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.

Replicate Initiative to Other Instances: Migration load to be done to ROW instance with replication to other S/4 Hana instances (CUI and China) done by batch job as per the business process.  To be included in cut-over strategy document. 

In the Global 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.

Conversion Process

The high-level process is represented by the diagram below:

Data Privacy and Sensitivity

Not Applicable.

Extraction

Extract data from a source into . 

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 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
