▪ Populate file with relevant business data
▪ Upload file to the SAP S/4HANA migration cockpit
Transfer data using staging tables
▪ Staging tables are created automatically (in an SAP HANA DB schema)

Necessary preparations in the system landscape
▪ Setup FIORI
▪ Install DMIS Addon into the source system
▪ Apply necessary notes
▪ Define RFC from source to target
▪ Ensure availability of required authorizations
▪ Check customizing: relevant customizing in the target must be available (for example, organizational units, define document
type for migration, define accounts for migration, remove account blocks)
Configuration of SAP source and S/4HANA target must be reasonably similar
▪ Organizational structures from source and target must reasonably match
▪ Data extracted from source must reasonably fit to the configuration in the target
▪ Where configuration in the source deviates from the configuration in the target, adequate mappings have to be defined upfront,
such as rename of org.units, cost centers, document types, ….
▪ In case of questions carefully check the object-related documentation

Key questions to understand your data migration requirements
What deployment option is the target / receiver of the data?
SAP S/4HANA or SAP S/4HANA Cloud
Which data is needed from sources to operate S/4HANA the way you want?
Customizing? Master data? Open items? Balances?
What are the sources / sender systems of the data?
Number and type of source systems? Central master data management active?
Migrate data “as is” or transform on the fly?
Data transformations needed? Data quality improvement necessary?
Who needs to be involved?
Decisions to be taken? Major stakeholder?

SAP S/4HANA Migration Cockpit - Transfer Data Using Staging Tables
Details – Create Project (1/6)
▪ Staging tables will be created natively in the schema of the SAP HANA database depending on the
selected database connection.
▪ For each source structure of a migration object, a separate staging table will be generated.
▪ Staging tables must be filled by customer using extraction tools from SAP or from a third party.
Select Transfer Option
Database connection specifies where the
staging tables should be created
It is not possible to combine staging and file
approach in one project!

54

Details – Migration Object Overview (2/6)
For each source structure of the
migration object (e.g. customer), a
separate staging table will be
generated natively in the SAP HANA
database schema - depending on
the selected database connection.

P is set for records, which have been transferred to S/4HANA
system.
Comments and field information available in staging table
fields. A * in the comment field means, that this field is
mandatory.

57
PUBLIC
Freeze triggers prevent that, during the transfer of data, changes can be done on any data in
the staging table
▪ If freeze triggers are set, you will see this message on the Migration Object Screen in the
Migration Cockpit:
Details – Freeze Triggers (5/6)
To delete the freeze triggers you have two possibilities:
1. Finish the transfer: after transfer is finished the freeze triggers will automatically be dropped.

Migration Objects
Customer Vendor Integration since 1808 / 1809
It is now possible to create a business partner with both customer and supplier roles. You have two
possibilities:
1. Create Customer and then use Supplier Extend to add the supplier role
2. Create Supplier and then use Customer Extend to add the customer role
A new API is used for customer and supplier with 1808 and 1809. The old used API is not supported,
therefore the old migration objects are marked as deprecated.
