The purpose of this document is to define the conversion approach to create Catalog Profile in S/4 HANA.
A Catalog Profile is used to determine which catalogs and code groups from the individual catalogs are to be accessed by the system for maintenance notifications.
Syensqo utilizes Catalog Profile within the SAP S/4 HANA system to define and manage its technical object catalogs (Object Type, Cause, Action, Failure mode and Task).
The scope of this document covers the approach for migrating active Catalog Profile into S/4 HANA following the Catalog Profile Master Data Design Standard.
The conversion of Catalog Profile follows the endorsed EAM Core Data Design describing the Asset Identification Methodology.
Catalog Profile Data from legacy will be consolidated based on the S/4 HANA design and will be constructed via a common DCT which is target ready. This also means multiple GBU could be using the same Catalog Profile based on the Asset Identification Methodology.
There will not be a direct conversion from legacy to S/4 HANA, however there will be a mapping to ensure all the valid and active legacy Catalog Profiles are considered for data migration.
The data from legacy system includes:
The data from legacy system excludes:
For reference, the Catalog Profiles in S/4 HANA are not transformed based on the legacy mapping, but they are derived based on the logic of the Asset Identification Methodology.
| Source | Scope | Source Approx No. of Records | Target System | Target Approx No. of Records |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| PF2, WP2 | Catalog Profile will be collected via DCT. An initial extract of the relevant Catalog Profiles will be provided in google sheet format to assist business in decision making on including any relevant Catalog Profiles from PF2 and WP2 as Catalog Profile in S/4 HANA. Any additional Catalog Profiles 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 Catalog Profiles in the DCT. Please see an indication of what will be baselined from source systems below and what will be constructed in the DCT. | 500 | S/4 HANA | 500 |
Catalog Profile description will be made available in English.
Multi language is supported for Catalog Profile. Login via a different language will have its description displayed in the logon language if the language key is maintained in the Catalog Profile.

With Functional input, document the technical design of the target fields that are in the scope of this document.
The technical design of the target for this conversion approach.
Catalog Profile:
| Table | Field | Data Element | Field Description | Data Type | Length | Requirement |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| T352C | RBNR | RBNR | Catalog Profile | CHAR | 9 | Mandatory |
| T352C | QKATART | QKATART | Catalog | CHAR | 1 | Mandatory |
| T352C | QCODEGRP | QCODEGRPSEARCHPATTERN | Search Pattern for Code Group/Selected Set | CHAR | 8 | Mandatory |
Note: One Catalog Profile can have multiple Catalog and Search Pattern for Code Group / Selected Set.
Catalog Profile Text:
| Table | Field | Data Element | Field Description | Data Type | Length | Requirement |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| T352C | RBNR | RBNR | Catalog Profile | CHAR | 9 | Mandatory |
| T352B_T | SPRAS | SPRAS | Language Key | LANG | 1 | Mandatory |
| T352B_T | RBNRX | RBNRX | Catalog Profile Text | CHAR | 30 | Mandatory |
Note: Each Catalog Profile must have 1 entry for each language in scope: English,French, Italian, Mandarin, Brazilian, Portuguese, German and Spanish
Catalog Profile Data strictly adheres to the Master Data Standard. The complete information of the key fields that hold the Catalog Profile information follows the Master Data Standard document that is located here.
All data cleansing should take place in the data source system as defined in this document, unless system limitations prevent it.
If data cleansing is managed outside of the source system (e.g. Syniti Migrate, 3rd Party Vendor, DCT), the necessary documentation must be produced and appended to this deliverable for sign-off.

Summarize High-Level Process. Include diagrams, where applicable. Include information supporting details of Extract, Transform and Load specific to the Data Object
The high-level process is represented by the diagram below:

Collection will be done manually in the Data Collection Template for the following scenarios:
Extract data from a source into Syniti Migrate. There are 2 possibilities:
The agreed Relevancy criteria is applied to the extracted records to identify the records that are applicable for the Target loads

| QKATART | Catalog | Allowed values from: TQ15-KATALOGART |
| QCODEGRP | Search Pattern for Code Group/Selected Set | Must not contain characters from mapping table: OTH_Informal Characters, except for asterisk * If user select exist code group, need to check the value existence in QPCD-CODEGRUPPE based on the Catalog provided; If user input value contains asterisk (*) in the code group field, the system should skip data validation for this field. |

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:
