Purpose
The purpose of this document is to define the conversion approach for RE-FX Contract and Lease Management (CLM) master data in SyWay S/4 HANA.
The main object of RE-FX migration is Lease contract master data and conditions. Due to the technical structure of RE-FX, there are also several tightly connected migration objects such as Business Partners (i.e., Vendors), Right of Use (RoU) Assets & their balances, GL Liability balances and Lease related Purchase Orders. The scope of this conversion specification is the Lease contract master records. Migration of Lease contracts are however dependent on the other objects mentioned above to migrate Lease contracts data and their conditions completely and accurately, hence the dependent objects are also identified in this conversion specification.
The data migration activities for RE-FX is going to be managed via an ETL approach defined in the data migration strategy
The conversion approach for Group entities currently using SAP ECC shall use S/4 HANA CLM for IFRS 16 Lease Accounting in SyWay. S/4 HANA CLM provides a standardized framework, single source of truth and processes for a streamlined management of lease contracts across all Syensqo group entities directly in S/4 HANA.
Conversion Scope
The scope of this document covers the approach for converting active IFRS 16 Lease Contracts from Legacy Source Systems into S/4HANA following the DD-FUN-050 Master Data Standard_1076-RE-FX Contract.xlsx Standard.
The data from legacy system includes:
- IFRS 16 Lease-in and Lease-out contracts: Lease contract master data and Condition values migrated via this conversion specification
- Lease Liabilities Balances: Short Term, Long Term and Accrued Lease Liability Balances will be migrated via Object Number 9010
- ROU Assets and Balances: The master and transactional data will be migrated via Object Number 9108
- Business Partners: Vendor & Customer Business Partner master data with a specific RE-FX role will be migrated via Object Number 3021
- Purchase Orders for Leases: All Open POs for RE-FX Leases and with remaining open Quantity will be migrated via Object Number 9045
The data from legacy system excludes:
- Inactive Lease Contracts and it's associated Deactivated ROU Assets (ROU is managed via Object 9108)
- Lease contracts that will be ended as of go-live dates defined in the project plan
Relevancy rule: The following relevancy criteria to be considered for extracting active RE-FX Lease Contracts from both WP2 and PF2. Note: PI2 does not have RE-FX Lease Contracts.
- Go to table VICNCN:
- Get all contracts from VICNCN-BUKRS where BUKRS is for company codes that are in scope and VICNCN-RECNENDABS is greater than or equal to 'system date'
| Source | Scope | Source Approx No. of Records | Target System | Target Approx. No. of Records |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| PF2 | RE-FX Lease Contracts (Lease-In and Lease-Out) | 1,870 | S/4 HANA | Will be same as Source, unless any new contracts and/or deactivation before Go-live |
| WP2 | RE-FX Lease Contracts (Lease-In and Lease-Out) | 2,070 | S/4 HANA | Will be same as Source, unless any new contracts and/or deactivation before Go-live |
Additional Information
Multi-language Requirement
RE-FX Lease Contracts will primarily be managed in English. However, according to KDD055, this master data standard will be implemented in 4 core languages.
- English (EN)
- French (FR)
- Italian (IT)
- Chinese (ZN)
Note: Other language requirements were not finalized while developing this document, A custom WRICEF development is proposed.

Data Cleansing

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Medium | Deactivated Lease Contracts | Terminated or concluded lease contracts must be closed and all related postings need to be posted and deactivated. | After cleansing, Lease contracts and associated ROU assets will have 'Deactivated' status. | SAP ECC - PF2/WP2 |
| 2 | Medium | Lease Suspense GL Clearing | Lease Suspense account balances to be cleared: For Concluded contracts: Any contracts that have been terminated or concluded must have their balances to be cleared to Zero. For active contracts: Open items are also to be cleared as much as possible for active lease contracts to ensure that remaining contract period balances are consistent with the Lease suspense GL account | Lease suspense account IFRS 16 will be consistent with lease contract cash flow for any given date range. | SAP ECC - PF2/WP2 |
| 3 | Medium | Lease POs commitments match with IFRS 16 Active Lease Contracts | Review all Lease POs against active IFRS 16 Lease Contracts that they match the commitments in source system. Otherwise, correct the incorrect values i.e., PO values, Qty, Lease dates and so on. | The PO values are as per the commitment values for the IFRS 16 Lease Contracts, which align with the target Syway RE-FX design where each active lease contract must assign to the Lease PO | SAP ECC - PF2/WP2 |

Data Privacy and Sensitivity
N/AExtraction
The RE-FX Lease contract master data records shall be extracted from SAP ECC and migrated using the Syniti Migrate. There are 2 possibilities:
- The data exists. Syniti Migrate connects to the source and loads the data into Syniti Migrate. 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 Syniti Migrate. This is to be conducted using DCT (Data Collection Template) in Syniti Migrate. Note: DCT is not applicable for this object 1076
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 ADMM 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

Load
RE-FX Lease Contracts will be migrated using the SAP tool 'Migration Cockpit' and 'Object: Real Estate Contract-NEW' used for this specific import. Migration template is attached as a reference.
The load process includes:
- Execute the automated data load into target system using load tool or product the load file if the load must be done manually
- Once the data is loaded to the target system, it will be extracted and prepared for Post Load Data Validation
