Purpose

The purpose of this document is to define the conversion approach to create Business Partners - Customer (Sales and Service) - FLCU01 in S/4 HANA.

In SAP ECC, the Customer Sales View is part of the Customer Master Data, which is used to store customer-related information for sales transactions. It includes details such as sales area, pricing, delivery preferences, and billing information. The setup typically involves maintaining customer records separately for different sales organizations, distribution channels, and divisions.
In SAP S/4HANA, the Customer Sales View is integrated into the Business Partner (BP) model, which replaces the traditional customer/vendor objects from ECC. The Business Partner serves as a central entity, allowing a single record to hold multiple roles (e.g., customer and vendor). The Customer Sales View in S/4HANA is represented under the BP role FLCU01, which contains sales-specific data such as sales area assignments, pricing conditions, and delivery preferences

Conversion Scope

The scope of this document covers the approach for converting active from Legacy Source Systems into S/4HANA following the Business Partners - Customer (Sales and Service) - FLCU01 Master Data Design Standard.

The data from legacy system includes:

1. The BP general is migrated
2. The sales area under which the sales view data is maintained for the customer is within the scope of S4 Hana 
3. There is no Central Sales Block (KNA1-CASSD) in the customer general master data, which is used to block all the sales view data of the customer.
4. or there is no Deletion flag for customer (sales level) (KNVV-LOEVM)
5. or there is no Customer order block (sales area) (KNVV-AUFSD)

The data from legacy system excludes:

Special Requirements

Due to compliance requirement, there will be one SAP instance for Rest of the World and one for China specifically. For entities in China, the data will be loaded into SAP China instance while the entire migration process will remain the same as rest of the world.

To identify the record is for SAP China Instance, it will use below logic. 

Customer Master Data - General Information

1. The customer has sales area data in below entities. 
2. If the customer is used in both China entities and ROW, then the sales data needs to be created in both SAP China and ROW instances.

Target Design

The technical design of the target for this conversion approach.

Data Cleansing

Conversion Process

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

Data Privacy and Sensitivity

Extraction

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

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

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 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
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

Load

The load process includes:

1. Execute the automated data load into target system using load tool or product the load file if the load must be done manually
2. Once the data is loaded to the target system, it will be extracted and prepared for Post Load Data Validation

Key Assumptions

• Master Data Standard is up to date as on the date of documenting this conversion approach and data load.
• is in scope based on data design and any exception requested by business.
