SKB1ZUAWA
Sort KeyCHAR3This field determines how the system will populate the default assignment field during document entry. This is then used for information to aid with clearing open items by the allocation field in the document line item. Each G/L account type may require a different key specified here to best facilitate sorting / clearing requirements line items posted to it.

Note that the Sort Key only populates the assignment field with a default value, and the dassignment field will be overwritten when a new value is entered. This applies to all postings whether manual or interfaced.
C
SKB1ALTKT
Alternative Account NumberCHAR10A freely definable field to be used to enter the account number from a country chart of accounts if a country chart of accounts is required for the company code.C

43: Internal Activity Allocation
- This cost element category is used to allocate costs during internal activity allocation and for allocating process costs via an activity type to a receiver object.

Statistical Cost Element Category:
90: Statistical Cost Element for Balance Sheet Account
- This cost element category is typically used for Fixed Asset Reconciliation Accounts or inventory accouns to update the Controlling module statistically with line items posted to those accounts for getting full visibility over directly capitalized expenditures in Controlling reports.
C
CSKBMGEFL
Record QuantityCHAR10Indicator defining whether the system issues a message if no quantity or quantity unit is specified for a postings.

Note: Once you have specified this and a posting has occurred in the leading ledger fiscal year against the particular G/L account that has quantities recorded, although you can change the flag in the G/L account, the system will always use the original value set until the following leading ledger fiscal year.

Extraction

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

  1. The data exists. Syniti Migrate connects to the source and loads the data into Syniti Migrate. 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 Syniti Migrate; 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 Syniti MigrateThis is to be conducted using DCT (Data Collection Template) in Syniti Migrate

The agreed Relevancy criteria is applied to the extracted records to identify the records that are applicable for the Target loads

Reconciliation of Record Count

Total number of records loaded for TB Balance ( PY )  will be generated in the Post-load reports in tool based on the target table and fields mentioned in section 3.

The reconciliation needs to be executed on the total number of ‘valid’ records and currency amount per company code in the source compared to total number of records and currency amount in S/4HANA

Record Count

Check the sum of record count of the open items in the load file is the same as S/4HANA. The record count for TB Balance ( PY )  will be done on the group basis. The fields in the group are consist of: Company Code, Vendor Account

Check Amount in Document Currency and Local Currency

Check on line item level that the sum of the amount in Document Currency and Local Currency in the load file is the same as posted in S/4HANA. If any of the sum is different, flag the record as error.


Accuracy

TaskAction
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.
