Purpose
The purpose of this document is to define the conversion approach to create Measurement Document in S/4 HANA.
Measurement documents are used to record measurement readings on the condition of an equipment e.g. temperature. It is also used to record counter readings of an equipment e.g. Engine Running hours. This counter readings will be the trigger for maintenance plan to initiate maintenance and/or inspection work.
Conversion Scope
The scope of this document covers the approach for converting active Measurement Document from Legacy Source Systems into S/4HANA.
At Syensqo, Measurement Documents are created for Measuring Points to monitor the condition and usage of assets. They provide critical input to support condition-based and usage-based maintenance strategies. Measuring Points are created on either Functional Locations or Equipment, depending on the asset structure and monitoring requirement. The Measurement Documents are also a core component of Asset Performance Management (APM) used to monitor asset health, detect trends, and trigger condition-based or predictive maintenance actions.
The approach is to migrate the last Measurement Document for each active Measuring Point which is driving the active Maintenance Plans and Items in order to start the Maintenance Plan in S/4 HANA with the objective to continue with the cycle. For Measurement Documents related to APM, up to three years of historical data will be migrated from legacy systems to ensure seamless continuity in asset monitoring, trend analysis, and maintenance decision-making within the S/4 HANA.
Note: Digital Local Indicators (eg Sensor Data available in Startek) are not in scope for migration as these will be mass created via Custom Development Program (ERP-582)
The data from legacy system includes:
- Latest Measurement Document Reading for active Measuring Point that is a counter (IMPTT-INDCT) and linked to a active Maintenance Plan (MMPT-POINT)
- Measurement Document for associated active Measuring Points (IMPTT-MPOBJ) for Functional Locations and Equipment for the past 3 years (IMRG-IDATE), limited to:
- specific Technical Object Type (EQUI-EQART/IFLOT-EQART) based on Value Mapping: OTH_Technical Object Type_APM
The data from legacy system excludes:
- Measuring Document with reversal indicator (IMRG-CANCL)
- Long Text for Measurement Document
List of Tables to extract for this object is maintained here: Extract Table Register.
Illustration of relevant Measurement Document for extraction (Point 1 of relevancy criteria):

Conversion Process
The high-level process is represented by the diagrams below.
The following represents the high-level process for Source System Extraction:
Collection will be done manually in the Data Collection Template for the following scenarios:
- For sites not on SAP-PF2 or WP2 systems
- For Measurement Documents that need to be created to support the to-be design
Data Privacy and Sensitivity
Not Applicable.Extraction
Extract data from a source into 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 Syniti Migrate; 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) inSyniti Migrate
The agreed Relevancy criteria is applied to the extracted records to identify the records that are applicable for the Target loads.

Data Collection Template (DCT)
Target Ready Data Collection Template will be created for Measurement Document data with exception of some fields which require transformation as mentioned in the transformation rule.
Delta Data Management: Initial collection will be done via the report and one-time load to the DCT will be performed. Any delta after the initial collection within the DCT will require business to take due diligence to ensure any subsequent delta cleansing is verified and aligned within the DCT.
Note: All rules specified below should be documented as a tooltip in the DC Page.

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:
- 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 Syniti Migrate
- 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

Key Assumptions
- Measurement Document is in scope based on data design and any exception requested by business.
- Data cleansing has met the required percentage threshold for the specified mock cycle and all preparation activities have been completed.
- When the Total Counter Reading is the same as the Counter Reading, the loading method for Normal Counter Reading Entry is adopted (Total Counter Reading can be left blank)
- When the Total Counter Reading is not the same as the Counter Ready, the loading method for Total Counter Reading Set Externally is adopted (both Counter Reading and Total Counter Reading is required)
- For Counter Based Plan, the last reading of the Measuring Document will be the input to the Start Counter of the Maintenance Plan Start object
