Purpose
The purpose of this document is to define the conversion approach to create conversion for Object 9107 – Activity Rates in S/4 HANA.
Activity Rates are the current active rates for different activities performed either for production, plant maintenance, HR etc. The activity rates capture the planned cost for a certain activity over a period of time. E.g. Factory overhead is charged to production orders via relevant activity types maintained for absorbing factory overheads. The activity rates are maintained for a combination of activity types and cost centre combination.
The document details out the field list, extraction criteria, scoping, mapping, transformation logic, generation of the pre-load file and loading of the same with respect to the object 9107- Activity Rate.
The requirement is to migrate planned activity rates. The actual activity rates would be performed within the S4 system as a part of the month end activity.
The activity rates will be provided by the business in a Data Collection Template (hereinafter referred to as DCT) and transformed as applicable for S4HANA in Syniti and then loaded using the excel upload option.
Conversion Scope
The scope of this document covers the approach for migration of planned activity prices.
The data from legacy system needs to be confirmed by the business.
List of source systems and approximate number of records <number of company codes to be confirmed relevant for activity rates needs to be confirmed>. The data will be provided by the business in the DCT page. The data will not be extracted and transformed in Syniti. The source of data is DCT and not PF2 and WP2.

Data Cleansing
For the purpose of the Object 9107- Activity rates, the data cleansing is not applicable. It is expected that relevant records will be provided in DCT by business.
Conversion Process
For activity rates the data will be collected in the DCT page. The conversion process will depend upon the DCT (Data Collection Template) which will be provided by the business. This DCT will be used for transformation and generation of the pre-load file. The activity prices will be uploaded via excel upload option in KP26. The conversion and transformation for activity rates will not happen via Syniti as the data will be provided by business in the DCT page.
Data Privacy and Sensitivity
None
Extraction
For object 9107 – Activity rates, the extraction is not applicable as this will be a DCT provided by business.

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 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
- 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
The load process includes:
- Execute the automated data load into target system using load tool or produce the load file if the loading of records to be done via a custom program <TBC>, as LTMC for this object is not available as of now.
- Once the data is loaded to the target system, it will be extracted and prepared for Post Load Data Validation with side by side check of each fields in scope of the objects with fields to be displayed as XXXX_ECC, XXXX_S4HANA, XXXX_MATCH ( As TRUE or FALSE) with an additional column denoting fields not matching and status of loading in S/4HANA as LOADED_IN_S4HANA ( As TRUE or FALSE)

Post-Load Validation
Project Team
The following post load validations will be done by Project Team
Completeness
Task | Action |
Reconciliation of Record Count | Record Count - Count and check how many records were loaded vs. Records in the load file (Each mock has its own data record count) Check for logs from Load and fix erroneous records, if any. |
Accuracy
Task | Action |
Check values in key fields for accuracy | Post-load reports will have the same structure as the load file and some additional columns as required to facilitate the post load validation. Leverage on tool to create a Post Load report that reports S/4HANA loaded records along with the legacy values side-by-side to allow for 100% check of all these fields in the shortest possible time. Any mismatch will be reported under the Post Load - Error report. |
