Purpose
The purpose of this document is to define the conversion approach to create EAM Characteristics in S/4 HANA.
Legacy Plant Maintenance Characteristics is using a diverse range of formats across the different systems. There are instances where the same characteristics are duplicated within and across sources. This results in data inconsistency. As per SyWay design, EAM Characteristics will be standardized.
Conversion Scope
The scope of this document covers the approach for converting active EAM Characteristics from Legacy Source Systems into S/4HANA following the EAM Characteristics Master Data Design Standard.
Characteristics define a single custom field used to capture specific properties, attributes or values of an object. In SAP, Classes and Characteristics together form the “Classification System”.
For Syensqo, Characteristics will be used to record key attributes supporting reliability categorization and various analyses. It will be primarily used for information and reporting of attribute data across a large set of technical objects (e.g. Functional Location Structure). These Characteristics will be created centrally and assigned to relevant Classes.
From the current source systems’ perspective, Class and Characteristic concepts already exist (but in slightly different structure). Characteristic data and their allowed values are independently managed between PF2 and WP2. While these have been identified as source systems, a considerable amount of data construction will be required to support the production of data load sheets in the desired format.
While these systems serve as sources, extensive construction will be necessary to produce properly formatted data load sheets for S/4 HANA.
The scope of this document covers the approach for converting active Characteristics from Legacy systems (PF2, WP2) and creation of New EAM Characteristics into S/4 HANA following the Characteristics Master Data Design Standard.
The data from legacy system includes:
- Characteristics (CABN-ATNAM) assigned to Classes with below Class Type (KLAH-KLART)
- 001-Material Class
- 002-Equipment Class
- 003-Functional Location
- </Start CR0164>
017-Document Management</End CR0164> - 018-Task List Class
- 037-Measuring Point Class
- 080-Maintenance Plans Class
- Characteristics assigned to active Legacy Measuring Points (IMPTT-POINT)
- Legacy Measuring Point linked to active Legacy Functional Location (IFLOT-TPLNR with System Status TJ02T-TXT04 <> INAC)
- Legacy Measuring Point linked to active Legacy Equipment (EQUI-EQNR with System Status TJ02T-TXT04 <> INAC)
- Status (CABN-ATMST) = 1 (Released)
The data from legacy system excludes:
- Characteristics for Deletion (CABN-LKENZ = "X")
List of source systems and approximate number of records
| Source | Scope | Source Approx No. of Records | Target System | Target Approx No. of Records |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| PF2, WP2 | Characteristics will be collected via DCT. An initial extract of the relevant Characteristics will be provided in google sheet format to assist business in decision making on including any relevant Characteristics from PF2 and WP2 as EAM Characteristics. Any additional Characteristics that need to be created to support the new design may be added in the DCT. A review and standardization will be done across all characteristics in the DCT. Note: A full Data Construct will be created for Characteristics, as the SyWay design is changing and a complete standardization will be performed. While data may already exist, it cannot be easily transformed to align with the new SyWay data setup. | 6,500 | 6,500 |
Additional Information
Multi-language Requirement
EAM Characteristic description will be made available in English.
Multi language is supported for EAM Characteristics. Login via a different language will have its description displayed in the logon language if the language key is maintained in the Characteristics.

Characteristics A2D Data strictly adheres to the Master Data Standard. The complete information of the key fields that hold the Characteristic information follows the Master Data Standard document that is located here.
Data Cleansing
No data cleansing is required for Characteristics in the legacy systems. If any cleansing is deemed necessary, it will be performed outside of the systems.
As a result, the cleansed Characteristics data will be populated directly in the Data Collection Template (DCT).

Conversion Process
The high-level process is represented by the diagram below:
Collection will be done manually in the Data Collection Template for the following scenarios:
- For new Characteristics that need to be created to support the to-be design
Data Privacy and Sensitivity
Not ApplicableExtraction
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) in Syniti Migrate
The agreed Relevancy criteria is applied to the extracted records as reference point to identify the records that are applicable for the data construction in the DCT.
- The data exists. Syniti Migrate connects to the source and loads the data into Syniti Migrate. There are 3 methods:

Data Collection Template (DCT)
Target Ready Data Collection Template will be created for EAM Characteristics data with exception of some fields which require transformation as mentioned in the transformation rule.
- The extracted report will be loaded into the required structure using the DCT.
- Standardization activities (including deduplication, standardization and additions) will be carried out within the DCT.
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 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

| Verify Record Count | Business Data Owner/s to verify that the total number of relevant records from the the DCT is equal to the total number of records in the Preload and Load Sheets. |
Accuracy
| Task | Action |
|---|---|
| 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:
- 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

Conversion Accuracy | Verify that the EAM Characteristics data in target S/4 HANA were loaded correctly via dspMigrate post load reports or standard reports from S/4 HANA. |
Key Assumptions
- Master Data Standard is up to date as on the date of documenting this conversion approach and data load.
- Data cleansing has met the required percentage threshold for the specified mock cycle and all preparation activities have been completed. (If applicable for Cleansing)
- Data entries in DCT are target-ready data unless a specific transformation rule is stated for that field in the transformation rules.
- Not all legacy Plant Maintenance (PM) Characteristics need to be mapped to S/4 HANA PM Characteristics. If any of the successor objects is dependent on a PM Characteristic field with no mapped values, this will be an enrichment activity or manual transformation for the successor object to derive the PM Characteristic.
