Purpose

The purpose of this document is to define the conversion approach to create conversion for Object 1182 - Trader Authorisation in S/4 HANA.

Trader Authorisation is a key control mechanism designed to manage who is allowed to create, modify, and approve financial transactions. It ensures segregation of duties, mitigates operational risk, and enforces compliance with internal policies and external regulations.

The document details out the field list, extraction criteria, scoping, mapping, transformation logic, generation of the pre-load file and loading of the same with respect to the object 1182- Trader Authorisation, to be used in treasury module of S4HANA.

Key tables and fields: 

The table mentioned below is the the main table used for trader authorisations in S4.

• VTBTRA1 - Trader Authorisation - This table stores information related to Trader, company code, Contract type, Product category, Product type, Transaction type and authorisation indicator. The purpose of these fields are as listed below
  • RDEALER - Trader : This field contains the Trader ID of the in-house trader responsible for the transaction.
  • BUKRS - Company code: The company code for which the financial transaction is being performed
  • RANTYP - Contract Type: The contract type is an indicator which helps identify the nature of the contract e.g. "2 - Securities", "5 - Foreign Exchange", "5 - Money Market", "6 - Derivatives", "T - Trade Finance" etc.,
  • SANLF - Product Category: The product category is an internal key that controls processing of the objects defined by the product type. The user must specify which product categories the trader assignment must be extended
  • SGSART - Product Type: The product type allows the subdivision of a product category. Here user must specify which product types the trader assignment must be extended. The product types enable you to give the products company-specific names e.g. stocks can be grouped into domestic stocks and foreign stocks; bonds can be divided into fixed-interest bonds, variable-interest bonds, and zero bonds.
  • SFHAART - Transaction Type: The financial transaction type specifies which types of transactions can be carried out with a certain product type, such as investment and borrowing of fixed-term deposits, deposits at notice, or purchase and sale of bonds. It needs to be specified which transaction types the trader assignment must be extended.
  • AUTHOR - Authorisation Indicator for Treasury Product: Identifier to mention if the trader is authorised or not.

Conversion Scope

The scope of this document covers the approach for converting active from Legacy Source Systems into S/4HANA following the Master Data Design Standard.

The data from legacy system includes:

The data from legacy system excludes:

Additional Information

Multi-language Requirement

Document Management

Legal Requirement

Special Requirements

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.
