Purpose

The purpose of this document is to define the conversion approach to create the WBS - CAPEX, OPEX, Statistical

in S/4 HANA.

In SAP, a WBS element (Work Breakdown Structure element) is a key component in project structure. WBS elements are organized hierarchically and facilitates planning, execution, and control.


Conversion Scope

The scope of this document covers the approach for converting active WBS - CAPEX, OPEX, Statistical from Legacy Source Systems into S/4HANA following the WBS - CAPEX, OPEX, Statistical Master Data Design Standard. tems into S/4HANA: 


All Data Built in the DCT.
An initial extract of the relevant WBS, including suggested mapping to new strutures, will be provided in google sheet format to assist business in decision making on including any relevant WBS element from PF2 and WP2.

The data from legacy system to be included in the initial extract includes:

    1. WBS elements for Capital projects (eg. Industrial, Facility IT and R&I) open as at migration date with postings in the last 3 years or has AUC balance.
    2. WBS elements for Budgeted Operating projects (eg. Budgeted Maintenance, Demolition projects) open as at migration date with postings in the last 3 years.
    3. WBS elements for Closed Capital Projects with postings within the agreed timeframe (currently migration relevant is 2028).
    4. WBS elements for Closed Budgeted Operating Projects with postings within the agreed timeframe (currently migration relevant is 2028).
    5. Specifically also included are WBS elements for IT and R&I Projects with postings in the last 3 years.


The data from legacy system be included in the initial extract excludes:

  1. WBS elements for company codes out of scope
  2. WBS for out of scope Plants.
  3. WBS with no costs (no movement in past 3 years), Project created by mistake
  4. WBS which has deletion indicator set

Additionally WBS elements without any initial extract will be created using the DCT, this includes - 

  1. WBS elements with reference to PPM item and template project- 
    1. Capital Lease (One WBS per Company Code/Cost Centre)
    2. Direct Asset Purchases (One WBS per Company Code/Cost Centre)
  2. WBS elements with no reference to PPM items -
    1. Provisions (One WBS per Company code/GBU/ Plant),
    2. Intercompany recharge (One Level 1 WBS per Company Code, Level 2 WBS per Trading Partner)


The guiding principle is that we should only migrate data necessary to support ongoing business operations. This may also involve cleansing activities within the source systems to align with the migration criteria.

In terms of Historical Data, it will not be migrated except where specific records are required to support application functionality, meet legislative obligations or ensure regulatory compliance.


WBS from the legacy system to be used for the basis of the system include projects from PF2 and WP2.

The data from legacy system includes:

  1. WBS elements not in closed status
  2. Closed CAPEX WBS elements which has current year postings..
  3. The parent WBS elements included in the above.

The data from legacy system excludes:

  1. WBS elements for company codes out of scope


WBS elements can be referenced in transactional data conversions, the conversions which may require WBS elements are

  • Financial postings
    • CNV-9031 Project - Actual GL Line Items (PNL - WBS for AuC)
    • CNV-9032 GL Line Items (PNL - Internal Order, Statistical/ Opex WBS)
  • Maintenance processing
    • CNV-9005 Work Order
  • Procurement
    • CNV-9044 Purchase Requisition (Oos) 
    • CNV-9045 Open Purchase Orders

Logic:

  1. WBS elements not in closed status
  2. Table PRPS

Key in field "Company Code" in scope.

Result: Object numbers of WBS that are in company codes in scope.

  1. Table JEST:

Field "Object number" = Key in the object numbers of WBS (from Step A)

Field "Status Inactive" = blank

Then filter object number that do not have status I0046 (Closed) or IFO07 (Closed) 

These WBS need to be migrated.

  1. Closed CAPEX WBS element that have cost in current year must also be migrated.

Logic:

  1. Table PRPS

Key in field "Company Code" in scope.

Result: Object numbers of WBS that are in company codes in scope.

  1. Table JEST:

Field "Object number" = Key in the object numbers of WBS (from Step A)

Field "Status Inactive" = blank

Then filter object number that has status I0046 (Closed) or IFO07 (Closed).

Result: Object number with status I0046 (Closed) or IFO07 (Closed).

  1. Table RPSCO:

Field "Object number" = Key in the object numbers of WBS (from Step B) 

Field "Fiscal Year" = Current year

Field "Value Type" = 4

Result = Object numbers that have cost in current year.

These WBS needs to be migrated.

  1. Parent WBS elements

For each WBS element with closed status include all superior level WBS elements.  If status of element is not closed superior WBS elements will also be not closed.

  1. Table PRHI:

Field “WBS elements” (All PS_POSNR from PRPS)

IF “UP” is Null no superior objects

Result = Field “UP” additional WBS to be migrated

Repeat until “UP” is Null.

Conversion Process

Data Privacy and Sensitivity


Extraction

Extract data from a source into Syniti Migrate
. There are 2 possibilities:

  1. The data exists. Syniti Migrate connects to the source and loads the data into Syniti Migrate. 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 Syniti Migrate; 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 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
