Purpose

The purpose of this document is to define the conversion approach to create Project Budget in S/4 HANA.

In the Syway Project budget is used to assign active availability control on Capital Projects while providing a binding financial plan for budget managed Operating Projects.


Conversion Scope

The scope of this document covers the approach for converting Project Budgets from Legacy Source Systems into Project in S/4HANA.

A report is executed to transfer budget from the PPM item, migrated as per CNV-9035 Portfolio Item - Financial Plan,  to Level 1 WBS elements while a DCT provides the distribution of budget to Phase Level WBS elements should this be required.


Relevancy

The data from legacy system includes:

  1. PPM Items with Level 1 WBS elements in S/4 Hana

The data from legacy system excludes:

If the data conversion involves third-party systems or external data sources, such as Icertis, describe any additional requirements related to data mapping, transformation logic, validation rules or security measures that must be followed.




Target Design

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.

Data Cleansing

Cleansing is done on the master data objects to which the budgets relate, no specific budget cleansing is required.

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.

Conversion Process

The high-level process is represented by the diagram below:


Data Privacy and Sensitivity

N/A


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 Migrate. This 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

Data Collection Template (DCT)

Target Ready Data Collection Template will be created for Project Budget data with exception of some fields which require transformation as mentioned in the transformation rule.

Project Budget DCT Rules


WBS Level

Field NameField DescriptionRule
PARENTLevel 1 WBS Element

The Level 1 WBS elements budget is assigned from the PPM item.

The values are restricted to the Level 1 WBS created in CNV-1022, for selection both the item number and Name is to be displayed.

This is a required field for capturing but not relevant for Preload validations.

PARENT_BUDGETLevel 1 Budget

The field displays the budget assigned to the Parent WBS element.

This is a calculated field assisting user with understanding the value available for assignment to the lower levels and is used in the preload validation of the Amount field.

POSIDWBS Element

This is a dropdown field of Phase level WBS Elements of the project selected.

The values are restricted to the Level 2 WBS elements created in CNV-1022 and further restricted by the PARENT selected.   For selection both the item number and Name is to be displayed.

This is a required field.

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 Migrate 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 Syniti Migrate
  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
