Purpose

The purpose of this document is to define the conversion approach to migrate AP open items without special GL indicator (normal items) in S/4 HANA.

AP open items are related to vendor line items that have not been cleared and remains as open status during migration cut-off date. Vendors comprise of the following types :

  • 3rd party vendors
  • Intercompany vendors
  • Employees
  • Others
  • One time vendor should be excluded and not supported



Conversion Scope

The scope of this document covers the approach for converting active AP open items from Legacy Source Systems into S/4HANA following the AP open items Master Data Design Standard. 


The data from legacy system are as follows :

    1. All open items with no special GL indicator (normal items) at migration cutoff date (Posting date <= migration cutoff date in BSIK table)
    2. All normal items posted before migration cutoff date but cleared after migration cutoff date (clearing date > migration cutoff date and posting date <= migration cutoff date in BSAK table)

The data from legacy system excludes the following, which do not contribute to financial balances :

    1. Parked item
    2. Noted item
    3. Attachments / notes

WP2AP open item16000S416000
PI2AP open item5000S45000





Amounts in legacy involve document currency, local currency and group currency. All currencies will be loaded accordingly unless there is a change in company design where local / group currency changes. Rates are as per the historical postings unless specific requirement calls for a fixed rate eg. group currency rate for consolidation purposes. Offsetting GL accounts in legacy documents will not be considered in this migration scope, they will be migrated in other objects scope eg. GL open item or GL balances. Migration takeover GL accounts will be offsetting the AP open items with respective profit center (if available in legacy).

Deferred tax in legacy AP documents will be included during migration. Reference to object 9019 (GL Line Items (BS - Input /Output (VAT)) for logic.

Withholding tax in legacy AP documents will be included during migration if withholding tax was not posted in legacy to avoid double posting. Reference to object 9020 (GL Line Items (BS - Withholding Tax)) for logic.

Offsetting GL line item(s) will be derived from legacy document if AP item does not have profit center (BSIK-PRCTR = blank). This will enable profit center derivation and splitting in S4. The offsetting GL account in migration loads will remain as migration clearing GL account but posted with the derived profit center which can be one line item or multiple line items depending on legacy open item document. If no profit center in legacy, a default profit center will be used based on mapping table by company code / GL account.

Data Privacy and Sensitivity


Extraction

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

  1. The data exists. ETL Tool connects to the source and loads the data into ETL Tool. 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 ETL Tool; 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 ETL Tool. This is to be conducted using DCT (Data Collection Template) in ETL Tool

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

Business and Data



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 ETL TOOL 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 ETL TOOL
  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

Task

Action

Generation of
Pre-load reports

Mandatory field check.
Based on S/4HANA target design fields, check if records have all mandatory fields filled and mapped, otherwise they should be flagged as error.


Check Business Partners are extended to required company code

Check if all mapped business partners exists in S/4HANA LFB1-LIFNR (Vendor) and LFB1-BUKRS (Company Code), and LFB1-LOEVM
(Deletion Flag) must not be X


Check signage of amount.

Check whether source data (including DCT) has debit and credit entries in the same line. If sign is the same in all the three currency fields, then no action needed.

If the sign in the document currency and company code currency field are different, then the document needs to be corrected in the source system or DCT.

Ensure all transactions have values in Document Currency and Local Currency
(i.e. no 0.00 allowed) 

Reconciliation of total

Record Count

Check the sum of record count of the AP open items in the load file is the same as source. The record count for AP Open Items will be done on the group basis. The fields in the group are consist of: Company Code, Vendor


Check Amount in Document Currency and Local Currency

Check the sum of the amount in Document Currency and Local Currency in load file is the same as source. If any of the sum is different, flag the record as error.

Review the data report to ensure mapping value is not missing in tool.
Capture errors in the Data Error report.




Business

Completeness

TaskAction
Verify record count in Pre-load reports by region

In legacy system, execute report AP Line Item Display (t/code: FBL1N) with selection parameters. 

Group the output of the report by Company Code and Vendor Account using subtotal function and compare the count in this report against the AP open items count in the pre-load file.

The record count for AP Open Items may also be done on the more granular level. The recommended granular level or the subtotal fields can consist of: Company Code, Vendor, Profit Centre, Document Currency Key, Company ID for Trading Partner.

If any of the count is different, raise defect and flag the relevant record as error.


Accuracy

TaskAction
Conversion accuracy

Verify AP open items are transformed accurately as per endorsed transformation/mapping rules.

Review error reports in tool for any mismatch or missing transformed values.

In legacy system, execute report AP Line Item Display (t/code: FBL1N) with selection parameters.

If any of the sum is different, raise defect and flag the relevant record as error.
Business partner balance on Company code and profit center levelCheck the total open item amount on Business partner at Company Code and Profit center level, against the total in legacy by Document, Local and Group currency. Apply currency rules where applicable


Load

Loading will be done through migration cockpit and therefore, data from the transformation export view to be exported into the load file format.

Export views to be prepared based on the field list from the load template attached. 

 Source data for FI - Accounts payable open item.xml


The load process includes:

  1. Execute the automated data load into target system using load tool
  2. Once the data is loaded to the target system, it will be extracted and prepared for Post Load Data Validation

Post-Load Validation

Project Team

Completeness

TaskAction
Reconciliation of Record Count

Total number of records loaded for AP Open Items will be generated in the Post-load reports in tool based on the target table and fields mentioned.

The reconciliation needs to be executed on the total number of ‘valid’ records and currency amount per company code in the source compared to total number of records and currency amount in S/4HANA

Record Count

Check the sum of record count of the open items in the load file is the same as S/4HANA. The record count for AP Open Items will be done on the group basis. The fields in the group are consist of: Company Code, Vendor Account

Check Amount in Document Currency and Local Currency

Check on line item level that the sum of the amount in Document Currency and Local Currency in the load file is the same as posted in S/4HANA. If any of the sum is different, flag the record as error.


Accuracy

TaskAction
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

TaskAction
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


Business may also run transaction code FBL1N – Vendor Line Item Display or equivalent report in Fiori App to display loaded AP Open Items in S/4HANA and compare results against the pre-load reports generated from tool.

Accuracy

TaskAction
Open items totalsCheck business partner open item totals by Business partner, Company code, profit centre. Totals should be checked in Document, Local and Group currency.
Spot checkBusiness should choose some business partners and perform comprehensive check of open items, payment terms etc Such partners should have huge number of open items or be critical for payment runs in S4 or have certain complexity in conversion.


Key Assumptions

  • Master Data Standard is up to date as on the date of documenting this conversion approach and data load. 
  • is in scope based on data design and any exception requested by business.
