Purpose
The purpose of this document is to define the conversion approach to create GTS Classifications in S/4 HANA GTS Edition.
Product classification in SAP GTS (Global Trade Services) is the process of assigning standardized codes to products for international trade. These codes are essential for complying with customs regulations, export controls, and trade agreements.
As part of the Syway program, OGP- will be upgraded to SAP S/4 GTS E4H Edition. For this master data object, the data must be extracted from the current system and loaded into the new GTS E4H system with minimal transformations.
Conversion Scope
The scope of this document covers the approach for converting active GTS Classification from Legacy Source Systems into S/4HANA following the GTS Classifications Master Data Design Standard.
The data from legacy system includes:
- Product/Material Relevance
• The product or material must be flagged as relevant for export control, customs, or preference. - Scenario-Based Migration Decisions (For Eg: Go-Live Date: July 2026) Fields: /SAPSLL/PRCLS- DATAB - Valid From and /SAPSLL/PRCLS-DATBI - Valid To
• 1 If the classification end date is December 2026 (same year as Go-Live), migrate the record.
• 2 If the classification end date is December 2027 or later (future years), migrate the record.
• 3 If the classification end date is January 2026 (same year as Go-Live), migrate the record.
• 4 If the classification end date is January 2025, migrate the record to maintain 2 years of historical data (especially if it is linked to a license that is still valid).

Conversion Process

Data Privacy and Sensitivity
NAExtraction
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

| 5 | The data which has passed validation will be used for transformation/further processing | Business/Data Owners |
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:
- 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 Master Data Standards document is a evolving document where value mappings/validation checks are still being finalized as we are currently in the detailed phase as of September 2025.
- GTS - Classifications is in scope based on data design and any exception requested by business.
