Purpose

The purpose of this document is to define the data conversion approach to create Material Listing and Exclusions in S/4 HANA.

Material Listing and Exclusion functionality in SAP enables control over which materials a customer is permitted or restricted from purchasing. A listing defines materials that a specific customer is allowed to buy, whereas an exclusion specifies materials they are not permitted to purchase. This functionality is essential for enforcing customer-specific sales restrictions.

In SAP S/4HANA, the structure and usage of Material Listing and Exclusion remains consistent with the ECC system, primarily based on combinations such as customer/ material or sales organization/ distribution channel/ customer/ material.

However, in SAP ECC, additional table combinations exist beyond the standard structures. Examples include:

  • Destination Country/Material Group
  • Destination Country/Region/Material
  • Material/Plant/Ship-to Party
  • Material/Plant/Sold-to Party
  • Sales Organization/ Customer/ Material
  • Sales Organization/Destination Country
  • Sales Organization/Departure Country
  • Material/Destination Country/Region
  • Sales Organization/ Material/ Customer
  • Material/Destination Country
  • Sales Organization/Material/Destination Country

This conversion aims to migrate active and relevant Material Listing and Exclusion records from existing ECC systems into S/4HANA by applying required transformation logic using Syniti as the data migration and transformation platform. The converted records will be loaded into the target S/4HANA system using standard SAP mechanisms such as IDOCs, BAPIs, or direct table loads where applicable.


Conversion Scope

The scope of this document covers the approach for converting active Material Listing and Exclusions records from Legacy Source Systems into S/4HANA following the Material Listing and Exclusions Master Data Design Standard: DD-FUN-050 Master Data Standard_2001-Material Listing and Exclusions.

From the current system landscape, Material Listing and Exclusions exist in the both legacy systems - PF2 and WP2. Harmonization and validation are required to ensure the accurate and consolidated data in S/4HANA. While PF2 and WP2 serve as source systems, a mapping and transformation logic will be necessary to produce properly formatted load templates in line with the target design.

 

The data from legacy system includes: 

  1.  All active Material Listing or Material Exclusions records, where "valid to date is beyond S/4HANA Go-Live date" AND must meet one or more of the applicable table combination criteria below:
    1. Customer/ Sold-to/ Ship-to sales view migrated as per CNV-3003 Business Partners - Customer (Sales and Service) - FLCU01 
    2. Material sales view migrated as per CNV-2003 Materials - Sales view with sales long text.
    3. Sales organization is in scope of S/4HANA
    4. Plant is in scope of S/4HANA 
    5. Material Group is in scope of S/4HANA
    6. Country (Departure/ Destination) must be within S/4HANA scope 
    7. Region must be within S/4HANA scope 


The data from legacy system excludes:

  1. Invalid Material Listing or Material Exclusions, e.g. table KOTG905 - PF2 (Material/ Sales Organization) or KOTG905 - WP2 (Sales Organization/ Sales Document Type/ Item Category Group).

Conversion Process

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

The ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) process is a structured approach to data migration and management, ensuring high-quality data is seamlessly transferred across systems. Here’s a breakdown of its key components:

1. Extraction
The process begins with extracting metadata and raw data from source systems, such as Syensqo ECC system WP2 and PF2. The extracted data is then staged for transformation.


2. Transformation
Once extracted, the data undergoes cleansing, consolidation, and governance. This step ensures data integrity, consistency, and compliance with business rules. The transformation process includes:
- Data validation to remove inconsistencies.
- Standardization to align formats across datasets.
- Business rule application to refine data for operational use.


3. Loading
The transformed data is then loaded into the target S/4HANA system.

Extraction

Extract data from a SAP ECC WP2 and PF2 into Syniti Migrate for S/4HANA. Syniti Migrate connects to the source and loads the data 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 Syniti Migrate 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 Syniti Migrate
  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

Data Extraction Logic for Material Listing and Exclusions

1. Identify Relevant Listing/ Exclusions Types
All Listing/ Exclusions type in the mapping table will be in-scope for extraction. There are multiple Listing/ Exclusions type used in ECC, e.g. ZB01 - RCS Exclusions (WP2), ZREA - REACH Exclusion (WP2), EXCL - Exclusion ERP (PF2). 

2. Process by Source System
Perform the extraction steps from source system, i.e. WP2 and PF2.

3. Extract data from all tables below.
Extract Customer, Departure Country, Destination Country, Distribution Channel, Listing/ Exclusions Type, Material, Material Group, Plant, Region, Sales Organization, Ship-to Party, Sold-to Party, Valid From and Valid To with the following: 
Filter #1:
- Validity Date (DATBI): include only records with validity greater than the cut-off date defined for the current conversion cycle (as specified on the selection screen).
- Sales Organization (VKORG): include only records for in-scope Sales Organizations provided in the parameter list.
From WP2 - table: KOTG004, KOTG906,KOTG908, KOTG913 and KOTG964

Pre-Load Validation

Project Team

The following pre-load validations will be performed by the Project Team.

Completeness

TaskAction

Compare Data Counts

  1. Verify row counts between source and target databases.
  2. Identify missing or duplicated records.

Validate the mandatory fields

Validate there is value for all the mandatory fields

Validate Primary Keys and Unique Constraints

  1. Check for duplicate or missing primary key values.
  2. Ensure unique constraints are maintained.

Test Referential Integrity

Confirm dependent records exist in related tables


Accuracy

TaskAction

Validate the transformation

Validate the fields which require transformation have the value after transformation instead of the original field value

Check Data Consistency

  1. Compare field values across systems
  2. Validate data formats and structures



Business

The following pre-load validations will be performed by the Business.

Completeness

TaskAction

Compare Data Count

  1. Verify row counts between source and target databases.
  2. Identify missing or duplicated records.

Accuracy

TaskAction

Conversion Accuracy

Business Data Owner/s to verify that all the data in the load table/file is accurate as per endorsed transformation/ mapping rules (and signed-off DCT data).






Load

The load process includes:

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


To identify the record is for SAP China, CUI or ROW Instance, it will use below logic. 

  1. The Material Listing and Material Exclusions have sales organizations in-scope as per link HERE - sheet: MAP_VKORG (link to be updated once confirm)
  2. The Material Listing and Material Exclusions have Plants in-scope as per this link HERE - sheet: MAP_WERKS (mapping table owned by S2P, link to be updated once confirm)
  3. If the Material Listing and Material Exclusions do not used sales organization or plant in the table in-scope, e.g. Customer/Material OR Destination Country/Material Group OR Destination Country/Region/Material OR Material/Destination Country; then it will be migrated to all 3 instances (ROW, CUI and China). To check if the customer/ material are only in specific sales organization, sales transaction by sales organization to the destination country and material group and other combination in scope, etc. May need Syniti report or transformation logic to decide which sales organization the listing/ exclusions to be extended to.

Business

Post-load validation is a critical step in data migration, ensuring that transferred data is accurate, complete, and functional within the target system.

1. Ensuring Data Integrity
After migration, data must be consistent with its original structure. Post-load validation checks for missing records, incorrect mappings, and formatting errors to prevent discrepancies.
2. Business Continuity
Faulty data can disrupt operations, leading to financial losses and inefficiencies. Validating post-load data ensures that applications function as expected, preventing downtime.
3. Error Detection and Resolution
By validating data post-migration, businesses can detect anomalies early, reducing the cost and effort required for corrections
