Purpose

The purpose of this document is to define the conversion approach to create Maintenance Planning Bucket in S/4 HANA.

A Maintenance Planning Bucket is a logical container or grouping tool used by maintenance planners to organize and manage maintenance orders and notifications for a specific time period and scope. The scope of a planning bucket includes time, but also other important attributes of the maintenance jobs.


Conversion Scope

The scope of this document covers the approach for converting active Revision from Legacy Source Systems into Maintenance Planning Bucket in S/4HANA.

In Syensqo, Maintenance Planning Buckets are primarily used to release maintenance orders, enabling material staging, permit processing, and job scheduling, while preventing further structural changes to planning data.

Some of the key information required to support Maintenance Planning Buckets is not consistently maintained in the source systems.

There are currently two categories of revisions:

  • Event-Based
  • Weekly revisions.

These revision types are typically distinguished by a Revision Type. However, this field is not used in the source systems, despite being a key identifier for differentiating revision behaviour. In addition, revision dates are not maintained even when the they are reused across open transactional data.

From a conversion perspective, the scope includes only the creation of Event-Based revisions into Event-Based Maintenance Planning Buckets. Weekly revisions will be handled during cutover activities and triggered via batch jobs, which will be owned by the core Functional team..

That said, to support data continuity, the mapping from legacy revisions to target Maintenance Planning Buckets for Weekly revisions will still be maintained as part of conversion. This ensures that downstream objects - such as Notifications and Work Orders - can correctly reference the appropriate target Maintenance Planning Bucket.

Many of the key fields required for Maintenance Planning Buckets do not exist in the Revision object in the source systems. 

Given this, and considering the estimated data volume, this object will be fully constructed. However, a source system report will still be required to supplement specific information needed to support the target system requirements.


The data from legacy system includes:

  1. Revisions with Event-Based Revision Type (T352R-REVTY = "Event-Based")
  2. Revisions within Maintenance Plants (T352R-IWERK) in scope (Value Mapping: Plant where Maintenance Plant = Yes)

The data from legacy system excludes:

  1. Completed Revisions (T352R-REVTY = "X")
  2. Revisions in the Past
    • End Date in the Past (T352R-REVED < Migration Date)

Extraction

Extract data from a source into the . There are 2 possibilities:

  1. The data exists. connects to the source and loads the data into the repository. 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 ; 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 the repository. This is to be conducted using DCT (Data Collection Template) in Advanced Data Migration and Management (ADMM).

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 ADMM 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 Advanced Data Migration and Management (ADMM)
  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
