You can use the following table to gain an overview of all migration objects available for SAP S/4HANA. It is
sorted in alphabetical order by Migration Object Name. Choose a migration object name to navigate to the
corresponding documentation for the migration object.
Note
The migration object documentation for the Transferring Data Directly from an SAP System migration
approach is currently only available in the system.
Use the search field in the relevant column to search for a specific Migration Object Name or Business Object
Name.
Choose Filter to apply further filters for Master data and/or Transactional data in the Business Object Type
column, and for the application component in the Component column to narrow down the results list. If you
want to see more or less information, choose Show/hide columns, and select the respective checkboxes for the
columns you would like to show or hide.
Tip
Filter the Migration Approach column to only see migration objects relevant for you. Therefore, choose Filter
in the respective column, and select the required approach, Direct Transfer, File, or Staging Table.
You can export the below table in CSV format with the current column visibility and filters applied. Therefore,

Note
For some migration objects there are additions to the migration object name. These additions include
"restricted" and "deprecated". Restricted means that not all fields and structures of the relevant business
processes are covered by this migration object, deprecated means that there is a newer version of this
migration object available. Deprecated objects will be deleted after a couple of releases. Make sure you
always read the migration object documentation for these objects carefully. Also see SAP Note 2698032
for more details on deprecated migration objects.
Note
Migration objects are built for initial migration of your data to your SAP S/4HANA or SAP S/4HANA Cloud
system. This means that you can create data with a migration object, but you can't change or update
existing data with it.
Note
The pre-delivered data migration objects are built for SAP S/4HANA Cloud and the respective SAP Best
Practices Content. You can use these objects also for SAP S/4HANA and the respective SAP Best Practices
Content. Using SAP S/4HANA, the delivered standard migration objects are templates that can be
enhanced according to your needs. The enhancement is only limited by the functionality of the tool and the
capabilities of the underlying API to load the data. Starting with SAP S/4HANA 1610 FPS2, you can enhance
customer projects based on these delivered standard migration objects or you can create your own objects
using the SAP S/4HANA migration object modeler (transaction LTMOM). For further information, please see
SAP Note 2481235 .
Further Information
● Use these SAP Help Portal aliases to access the following sections of our product assistance:
● If you are using the Fixed asset (incl. balances and transactions) [page 98] migration object, you can find
additional information about the available fields for each asset class in SAP Note 2468501 .
● If you want to view information about the differences between the current release and the previous release,
see SAP Note 2704618 .
Restriction
This object must not be used to migrate activity prices in SAP S/4HANA Cloud. The API used here does not
support the cloud tables For professional services use the Condition record for pricing (general template)
[page 55] migration object.
Purpose
Business Object Definition To plan and allocate the activities, the system records quan
tities that are measured in activity units. Activity quantities
are valuated using a price. Costs based on the activity quan
tity of an activity type can be posted separately in fixed and
variable portions.
In Scope
Supported Features
Prerequisites
Business objects that reference this object must be created within the correct validity period for this object.
If a successor object is created with a validity period that starts before the validity period of this object, it will
normally cause an error message during the creation or migration of the successor object.
You therefore have to check such time dependencies before you create or migrate your objects. This will avoid
subsequent error messages and inconsistent data on your database.

Mapping Instructions
Please provide here the batch class to which your material is assigned. All the characteristics with reference to
a table field are then created automatically during migration. Example: Class YB_EXP_DATE_002;
Characteristic LOBM_VFDAT refers to table field MCH1-LFDAT. If the Shelf Life Expira. or Best-Before Date field is
filled, the content will be copied into the classification value of Characteristic LBOM_VFDAT.
If you want to create a batch for a material that is defined by its valuation category as a material valuated in
single batches, you have to provide a valid valuation category. In this case, leaving the field valuation category
empty is not allowed .
The values in VALUE_FROM and VALUE_TO always relate to the unit of measurement of the characteristic.
If the unit of measurement specified here does not equal the unit of measurement of the characteristic, the
output is converted into this unit of measurement.
For example, if the Characteristic has the ISO UOM ANN (Year), and the VALUE_FROM field has the value 2, and
if the UNIT_FROM field has the ISO UOM MON, the two years are converted to months, and the system displays
24 months.
● 100,00 kg to 1,00 t
● 10,00 mg to 100,00 g
If you want to assign the interval 100,00 kg to 1,00 t as a value, you have to fill the fields on the Classification
NUM Values sheet like this:
Enter the Internal Floating Point Value From and Internal Floating Point Value To values according to the Base
UoM From (ISO) defined in the Characteristic itself (in this case KGM). The Base UoM From (ISO) and Base UoM
To (ISO) fields are filled with the desired Units of Measure in ISO.

Purpose
● BOM categories
In the SAP System, BOMs can form different objects
and manage object-related data. You can maintain the
following BOM categories, for example:
○ Material BOM
○ Document structure
○ Equipment BOM
○ Functional location BOM
○ Sales order BOM
● Technical types
To display product variants and production alternatives,
the system provides two technical types:
○ Variant BOM
○ Multiple BOM
In Scope
1. Currently, you can only process one alternative BOM per one material number, plant and BOM usage, but
this can be any number from 01 to 99.
2. Material BOM
3. For object dependency, only the assignment of global dependency is supported, and only the dependency
types Selection condition and Procedure are supported so far.
4. The following Item Categories (Bill of Material) are supported:
○ L-Stock item
○ N-Non-stock item
○ D-Document item
○ R-Variable size item
○ T-Text item

Business objects that reference this object must be created within the validity period that fits this object.
If a successor object is created with a validity period starting before this object, this will normally cause an error
message during the creation or migration of the successor object.
You therefore have to check such time dependencies before you create or migrate your objects. This will avoid
later error messages and inconsistent data on your database.

If you submit a credit limit amount, the amount value will be stored in the Requested field on the Credit
Limit tab. This is the standard behavior when maintaining the credit limit for a business partner. The reason
for this is the configuration of the system: A credit limit change triggers the Change to Credit Limit
Requested event with the LIMIT_REQ follow-on process. This also happens during migration, because the
same save mechanism is applied. We recommend to turn off the event during migration. If the event is
turned off, the credit limit is stored directly in the target field. To turn off the event, proceed as follows:
1. In Customizing, navigate to Financial Supply Chain Management Credit Management Credit Risk
Monitoring Processes .

Purpose
Business Object Definition This fact sheet gives the information associated with a docu

changing between systems. A document contains informa
tion that can be stored and it can take many different forms
(such as technical drawings, graphics, programs, or text).
When complete, this information gives a full description of
an object. We use the term document info record to refer to
the master record in the SAP System that stores all the busi
ness information for a document. While the document info
record contains the metadata for a document (such as the

Note
● You can transfer balances and transactions that have already been posted:
○ With transfers at the end of a fiscal year, the following applies:
The accumulated acquisition cost (APC) and the accumulated depreciation values are transferred.
○ With transfers during the year, the following applies:
The accumulated APC and the accumulated depreciation values are transferred. In addition to this,
you also transfer the transactions starting from the beginning of the fiscal year up to the time of the
transfer date. By default, you also transfer the posted depreciation of the year of transfer up to the
time of the transfer date. But you have the option not to transfer the posted depreciation in the year of
transfer. In this case, you first perform the legacy data transfer (without depreciation values in the year
of transfer), and then you calculate and post the depreciation in the system. In this case, you select the
corresponding checkbox in the Make Company Code Settings app.
Note
When using the SAP S/4HANA Migration Cockpit, asset balances are updated automatically. No special
transfer for asset reconciliation accounts in G/L is needed.

● You have made the Customizing settings for the relevant depreciation areas. These settings determine
which data is accepted from the upload file. The upload is only successful if the values are compatible with
the depreciation area settings.
Here are some examples:
○ Per default, acquisition values must be positive, whereas depreciation values must be negative.
○ Acquisition values should be greater than the depreciation values (considering the absolute values).
It would be incorrect to enter an acquisition value of 3,000 with a depreciation value of -10,000.
○ Only for real depreciation areas do you need to specify transfer values in accordance with the settings
of the depreciation areas. You do not specify values for derived depreciation areas.
If a depreciation is defined to take over acquisition values from other depreciation areas (for example,
areas 15, 31, and 33 take over values from areas 01 and 32), and you enter values in the upload file
anyway, the system will ignore these values.

You must specify the last posted depreciation period (from the legacy system) for each asset. The system
requires this information to determine the first period for the depreciation that should be posted in the SAP
system.
Required Activities
Pretest
We recommend that you perform a pretest in the test system: First, test system settings by performing a
manual legacy data transfer.
After this, you prepare the Microsoft Excel template and fill it with sample assets only (for example, one asset
per asset class). After the test, you should ideally clear the data from the test system:
● For asset master data, you can set a deactivation date to prevent the assets from receiving postings in the
future.
● You reverse the transfer postings.
● You check if the system contains any values for assets.
The productive system must not contain data before the data transfer.
Tasks
Post-Processing
In order to ensure that the legacy data transfer was carried out completely, you reconcile the data in the SAP
system with the data in your legacy system. You must reconcile the legacy data transfer and the corresponding
lists for documentation purposes before you release the SAP system for running operations in Asset
Accounting. This is because you may no longer be able to generate the corresponding lists later with only the
values from the legacy data transfer.

Before starting with the initial data transfer, you must define an overall migration key date for each company
code. This migration key date will be used for all migration objects which are posting into financial accounting,
except for the Fixed asset (incl. balances and transactions) [page 98] object.
Use the FINS_MIG_CTRL_1 transaction (Define Settings for Legacy Data Transfer) to maintain these settings:
● Set the Migration Key Date for each required company code
● Set the Legacy Data Transfer Status:
○ In Preparation: migration key date is still unclear (Migration of transactional data is not possible)
○ Ongoing: required for the initial data transfer (Migration of transactional data is possible)
○ Completed: after successful finish of the initial data transfer (Migration of transactional data is not
possible)
Dependencies
Please in keep in mind that no documents will be migrated. Only balances and open items will be taken over.
Clear as many of the open items payable, receivables, taxes and outgoing checks as possible from the
accounts in the source system. By reducing these open items, you will reduce the amount of variables,
resulting in a lower possibility of error as well as reducing the amount of reconciliation needed to verify the data
migration.
Normally, no items or balances from the tax accounts need to be migrated because they are usually balance
zero (for normal VATs) when the migration takes place. We assume that the tax transfer has already been done
and therefore no tax has to be migrated. Exception: Deferred taxes can be migrated with the migration
activities for Open items payable and Open items receivable.
Mapping Instructions
● Enter only one line per document post into the migration file. The offsetting entry will be automatically
generated for the offsetting G/L account.
● The combination of key fields Company Code + Ledger Group + Reference Document Number + Line Item
Number + G/L Account are used for duplicate check. Data records with this combination should be unique
in the migration template. Otherwise, the migration tool will display a duplicate error message. The Line
Item Number will just be used as an additional key field and will not be migrated.
● Please be aware you must fill and save value amounts in the migration file in number and not in string
format. Check the settings for a delimiter.
● For migration, the posting keys will be controlled by the sign in the amount fields. The sign for negative
values should be set at the beginning:
○ A negative value will use posting key 50 (Credit entry) for G/L Account and 40 (Debit entry) for
Offsetting G/L Account
○ A positive value will use posting key 40 (Debit entry) for G/L Account and 50 (Credit entry) for
Offsetting G/L Account
● The initial offsetting (transfer booking) accounts to be used in the Open items and Open balances
migration objects are described in the BH5 test script :
○ 39914000 (Initial FI-AR offset)
○ 39915000 (Initial FI-AP offset)
○ 39916000 (Initial other GL offset)
○ 39917000 (Initial other Open Item GL offset)
Provide all relevant currencies and related amounts via the template. In doing this, the provided values will be
adopted from the template regardless of existing exchange rates in the system.
Keep the second local/group currency field and related amount empty in the template. In this case, the amount
will be automatically calculated by valid exchange rates in the system.
The exchange rate will be determined using the provided document or posting date. Which date will be used is

SAP recommends that you structure the document with a maximum of 1000 records per document.
Note
The Technical Item Number field on the Material Document Item sheet and the Technical Document Number
on the Material Document Header sheet are not mapped to a target field.
Mapping of the Batch Number field on the Material Document Item sheet
You want to post stock for a material that is defined by its valuation category as a material valuated in single
batches. In this case you have to provide a valid batch. The valuation category must be assigned in the batch
itself.
Mapping of the External Amount in Local Currency field on the Material Document Item sheet
The valuation of the stocks to be entered depends on two factors:
● The price and type of price control defined in the accounting data of the material master record
● Whether or not you provide a value for the quantity entered:
For a material valuated at a standard price, the initial entry of inventory data is valuated on the basis of the
standard price. If you provide an alternative value in the External Amount in Local Currency field, the
system posts the difference to a price difference account.
For a material valuated at moving average price, the initial entry of inventory data is valuated as follows:
○ If you enter a value when entering initial data, the quantity entered is valuated at this price. If the
quotient of the value and the quantity of the initial data differs from the moving average price, the
moving average price changes when initial data is entered.

Basic Data
On the Basic Data sheet we only offer fields which might become relevant when you migrate a new
organizational unit. This can be the case, for example when you migrate a new plant including purchasing
relevant data (like purchasing group). Then the Order Unit field on the Basic Data sheet might also become
relevant to provide a value.
Please consider: You can't transfer a value in one of the fields provided on the Basic Data sheet which has
already a value in the related material master. It's not allowed to change already existing values in the related
material master: Therefore you can use the Manage Mass Maintenance – Products app. For further information,
refer to the online documentation of the Manage Mass Maintenance – Products app.
If you want to migrate a new storage location to an already existing plant, please provide only the key fields on
the Plant Data sheet and leave all the other fields blank. It is not allowed to change already existing values for an
existing plant. If you provide other values on the Plant Data sheet, an error message will display.
If you set the material status during the initial load of the materials, you need to consider that, depending on
which status you want to assign, follow-on migration objects can't be posted as the posting may lead to an
error depending on the settings of the status.
Example: In SAP standard delivery, material status 01 is configured in such a way that, during the posting of
inventory, you'll get an error message. Consider that when you assign the status, the use of the material can be
restricted. Depending on the status, the system issues either a warning message or an error message for
follow-on postings. Therefore, we recommend that you consider this field carefully so that you won't run into
follow-on problems during the data migration process. You can easily set the content of these fields after the
initial data migration using the Manage Mass Maintenance – Products app.
The Master Data Specialist for Product Data business role (SAP_BR_PRODMASTER_SPECIALIST) provides you
with several tiles to manage and start the Manage Mass Maintenance – Products app. You can open the app
from the SAP Fiori launchpad. You can import a file with changed data (supported formats are Comma-
Separated Values (CSV) and Microsoft Office Open XML spreadsheet (XLSX). You have to provide the following
details:
For further information, refer to the online documentation of the Manage Mass Maintenance – Products app.
Single Batch Valuation enables you to valuate stocks of material for each batch in a different way. You can use it
if you want to keep the price and value of each individual batch in inventory management on a value basis.
To work with valuation for a single batch, you must choose valuation category X - for Automat. Batch. Please
provide this on the Accounting Data sheet in the Valuation Category field.
Note
You need to manage the material itself in batches. Therefore you have to provide the Batch management
requirement indicator on the Basic Data sheet.
If you use the single batch valuation for your material, you have to enter the valuation records as follows:
You have to define a valuation header record with specified valuation category X, an initial valuation type and a
dependent record for each valuation type (one valuation type for each batch) with its own price information.
For the valuation header record only price control 'V' - moving average price is possible. For the dependent
records for each valuation type, you can choose between moving average price or standard price.
Split Valuation
Split valuation enables you to valuate stocks of material in the same valuation area in different ways. If you use
the split valuation for your material, you have to enter the valuation records as follows:
You have to define a valuation header record with a specified valuation category and initial valuation type and
also a dependent record for each valuation type.
For example:
Level Name
2 Plant Data
3 Forecast Parameters
2 Accounting Data
2 Sales Data
2 Material Descriptions
2 Tax Classification
Just like the organizational-dependent data, the material master data is also organized via so-called views
(Purchasing, Accounting view, and so on). These views are represented as tabs in your SAP Fiori app and as
material master transactions (MM01, MM02, MM03) in the on premise system. You can assign fields to
multiple views. The Purchasing Group field, for example, is assigned to the Purchasing and to the MRP views.
Each view may have different mandatory fields to maintain. A view is assigned a specific letter. For example, the
letter D is assigned to the MRP whereas the letter E is assigned to the Purchasing view. There are two different
1. The maintenance status will automatically be detected by the system for the fields used. In our example,
the Purchasing Group is available for the Purchasing view E and the MRP view D. The maintenance status
will therefore be DE for this field. This procedure will be followed for all mapped fields, after which a
combined maintenance status for all fields will be available, for example: BELV.
2. You, yourself define the views to be created via the Maintenance Status Settings worksheet/tab of your
migration object template. Here, you define a name for your view definition in the Material Views field, for
example, PLANT_HAWA to define the maintenance status for the plantspecific data for materials of that
type, which will be extended. For each view that you want to create, you must enter an x in the specific
Material Views column of that worksheet/tab, for example: PLANT_HAWA
○ Sales Data = X
○ Purchasing Data = X
○ MRP Data = X
○ Storage Data =X
○ Accounting Data = X
You fill out the Material Views field on the Plant Data worksheet/tab with PLANT_HAWA for all trading goods
materials of type HAWA, which you want to extend. You always have to provide values for both fields. As a
result, only the selected views are created for these materials.
Note
If you maintain the status using method 2, only the selected views will be created.
For example: You maintain the status for Sales Data (V) but not for Accounting Data (B). You maintain
values for fields on the Accounting Data worksheet/tab. As a result, the status for the Accounting view will
not be set.
Additional examples:
● If you want to create a material with a specific Purchasing Group, the system will determine the
Purchasing view and the MRP view to be filled. However, you do not want to maintain the fields in the
MRP view.
Solution: In this case, you also have to provide values for some mandatory fields like Availability Check
and MRP Type in the MRP view. To avoid this, choose method 2 and select only the Purchasing view as a
view to be created.
● You want to automatically have the Storage Location view created for a material and its storage location
by migrating its inventory stock.
Solution: You need to explicitly set the maintenance status for the Storage Location (L) on the Plant
Data level (also refer to SAP Note 62913 ).

● Be aware of the defined length set for the material number in the system. Do not convert a material
number to a new number longer than the defined length set.
● If the Material ID is to be used for integration with external systems, it can be switched on during migration.
In this connection, you must also maintain the Business System ID of your source system (to be used for
integration) in the Convert Values step, to ensure that the key mapping will be added to the central key
mapping store of the SAP S/4HANA system.
If you want to set the indicator material as configurable for materials with other material types assigned (not
KMAT), you have to enter this indicator on the Basic Data sheet in the Material is configurable field.
Starting with SAP S/4HANA Cloud release 1802, you can specify whether batch management at plant level is
active by default or not. You can maintain this setting via the SSCUI. Therefore, open the Manage Your Solution
app, and choose Configure Your Solution. The Specify Batch Management Default by Plant setting allows you to
activate or deactivate batch management by default for specific plants.
If your material is managed in batches, set the Batch management requirement indicator under Multiple View
Data on the Basic Data sheet of the migration template. If you fill out this field, the system will set the Batch
management requirement indicator automatically for all plants defined on the Plant Data sheet for this material.
This is applicable for all plants that are not flagged with the Batch Management not active by default indicator in
the SSCUI .
If you set the material status during initial load of the materials, do consider that, depending on which status
you want to assign, follow-on migration objects can't be posted, as the posting may lead to an error depending
on the settings of the status.
Example: in SAP standard delivery, the material status 01 is configured in such a way that, during posting of
inventory, you will receive an error message. Consider that by assigning this status, the use of the material can
be restricted. Depending on the status, the system issues either a warning message or an error message for
follow-on postings. Therefore, SAP recommends that you consider this field carefully so that you will not run
into follow-on problems during the data migration process. You can easily set the content of these fields after
the initial data migration, using the Manage Mass Maintenance – Products app.
The Master Data Specialist for Product Data business role (SAP_BR_PRODMASTER_SPECIALIST) provides you
with several tiles to manage and start the Manage Mass Maintenance – Products app. The app can be launched
from the SAP Fiori launchpad. You can import a file with changed data (supported formats are Comma-
Separated Values (CSV) and Office Open XML spreadsheet (XLSX). You have to provide the following details:
Note
For further information, refer to the online documentation of the Manage Mass Maintenance – Products
app.
Single Batch Valuation enables you to valuate stocks of material for each batch in a different way. You can use it
if you want to keep the price and value of each individual batch in inventory management on a value basis.
To work with valuation for a single batch, you must choose valuation category X - for Automat. Batch. Provide
this on the Accounting Data sheet in the Valuation Category field.
Note
The material itself needs to be managed in batches, therefore you have to provide the Batch management
requirement indicator on the Basic Data sheet.
● You have to define a valuation header record with specified valuation category X, and an initial valuation
type and a dependent record for each valuation type (one valuation type for each batch) with the
respective price information.
For example:
Note
For the valuation header record, only price control V - moving average price is possible. For the dependent
records for each valuation type, you can choose between moving average price or standard price.
Split Valuation
Split valuation enables you to valuate stocks of material in the same valuation area, in different ways. If you use
the split valuation for your material, you have to enter the valuation records as outlined below.
Define a valuation header record with a specified valuation category and an initial valuation type as well as a
dependent record for each valuation type.

● Basic Data
● Plant Data
You always have to provide the material maintenance status, we do not support an automatic maintenance
status determination.
There are two different procedures to define the maintenance status that should be available for a specific
material:
1. You, yourself, define the views to be created via the Maintenance Status Settings worksheet/tab of your
migration object template.
○ Here, you define a name for your view definition in the Material Views field. For example:
○ BASIC_HAWA to define the overall maintenance status for material of the type trading goods
(Handelsware, HAWA) and
○ PLANT1_HAWA to define the maintenance status for the plantspecific data for materials of that
type (for plant PLANT1).
○ PLANT2_HAWA to define the maintenance status for the plantspecific data for materials of that
type (for plant PLANT2).
○ For each view you want to create, you must enter an X in the specific Material Views column of that
worksheet/tab.
○ For example: BASIC_HAWA
○ Basic Data = X
○ Sales Data = X
○ Purchasing Data = X
○ MRP Data = X
○ Storage Data = X
○ Accounting Data = X
○ For example: PLANT1_HAWA
○ Sales Data = X
More details on the maintenance status can be found in SAP Note 2145027 .
Note
If you maintain the status using method 1 or 2, only the selected views will be created.
For example: You maintain the status for Basic Data (K) and Sales Data (V), but not for Accounting Data (B).
You maintain values for fields on the Accounting Data worksheet/tab. As a result, the status for the
Accounting view will not be set.
Additional examples:
● If you want to create a material with a specific Purchasing Group, the system will determine the Purchasing
view and the MRP view to be filled. However, you do not want to maintain the fields in the MRP view.

You can use the Product classification - Commodity code [page 147] migration object to migrate product
classification with commodity code.
Business Object Definition During migration of material master, the system will create
the accounting data (prices and values) for the company
code currency. For other deviant currencies (for example,
group currency) the system converts the currency using the
current exchange rate defined in the system. If this is not the
original price, you can use this migration object to change
the price for the other deviant currencies.
Note
The system will post a price change document and, if
stock of the material exists, a revaluation posting will be
created.

Before starting with the initial data transfer, you must define an overall migration key date for each company
code. This migration key date will be used for all migration objects which are posting into financial accounting,
except for the Fixed asset (incl. balances and transactions) [page 98] object.
Use the FINS_MIG_CTRL_1 transaction (Define Settings for Legacy Data Transfer) to maintain these settings:
● Set the Migration Key Date for each required company code
● Set the Legacy Data Transfer Status:
○ In Preparation: migration key date is still unclear (Migration of transactional data is not possible)
○ Ongoing: required for the initial data transfer (Migration of transactional data is possible)
○ Completed: after successful finish of the initial data transfer (Migration of transactional data is not
possible)
Please bear in mind that no documents will be migrated. Only balances and open items will be taken over.
Clear as many of the open items payable, receivables, taxes and outgoing checks as possible from the
accounts in the source system. By reducing these open items, you will reduce the amount of variables resulting
in a lower possibility of error as well as reducing the amount of reconciliation needed to verify the data
migration.
From the tax accounts, no items and no balances would normally need to be migrated because they are usually
at balance zero (for normal VATs) when the migration takes place. We assume that the tax transfer has already
been done and, therefore, that no tax has to be migrated. Exception: Deferred taxes can be migrated with the
migration activities for open items payable and open items receivable.
Mapping Instructions
● Enter only one line per document post into the migration file. The offsetting entry will be generated
automatically for the offsetting G/L account.
● The combination of key fields Company Code + Reference Document Number + Line Item Number + Vendor
Number are used for duplicate check. Data records with this combination should be unique in the
migration template. Otherwise, the migration tool will display a duplicate error message. The Line Item
Number will just be used as an additional key field and will not be migrated.
● Please be careful to fill and save value amounts in the migration file in number and not in string format.
Check the settings for a delimiter.
For migration, the posting keys are always derived based on the account type and on the special GL
indicator that is submitted in the line item. Additionally, the posting keys are controlled by the sign in the
amount fields. The sign for negative values should be set at the beginning:
○ A negative value will use posting key 31 (Invoice) for vendor and 40 (Debit entry) for Offsetting G/L
Account (only without special GL indicator).
○ A positive value will use posting key 21 (Credit memo) for vendor and 50 (Credit entry) for Offsetting
G/L Account (only without special GL indicator).
Note
During migration of credit memo line item, the Invoice Reference field will be automatically set by
the BAPI to 'V'. This is hard coded and can not be changed.
● The initial offsetting (transfer booking) accounts to be used in the open items and open balances migration
objects are described in the BH5 test script :
○ 39914000 (Initial FI-AR offset)
○ 39915000 (Initial FI-AP offset)
○ 39916000 (Initial other GL offset)
○ 39917000 (Initial other Open Item GL offset)
For posting of an invoice with deferred taxes, it is necessary to provide a tax account, tax code, tax amount and
a tax base amount via the migration template.
The sign of the tax amounts and tax base amounts must be opposite to the amounts of the vendor item.
If there is at least one deferred tax code in an invoice then full tax information including non-deferred taxes
should be provided in the migration template. This is necessary for a correct proportion calculation.
Provide all relevant currencies and related amounts via the template. In doing this, the provided values will be
adopted from the template regardless of the existing exchange rates in the system.
In the template, keep the second local/group currency field and the related amount empty. In this case, the
amount will be automatically calculated by valid exchange rates in the system.
The exchange rate will be determined using the provided document or posting date. Which date will be used is
defined in the customizing for each company code (in SPRO via "Change Foreign Currency Translation").
If a default payment block is assigned to a payment term, then the open item will be blocked accordingly. This
also happens if the value for payment block is not provided via the template. Use a payment term without a
default payment block to avoid an automatic payment block for the migrated open item.

Supported Features
Prerequisites
Business objects that reference this object must be created within the correct validity period for this object.
You therefore have to check such time dependencies before you create or migrate your objects. This will avoid
subsequent error messages and inconsistent data on your database.
● For routing migration, for example, the validity period of costing view in work center must be within the
routing validity period, otherwise this will lead to an issue with the cost simulation run.
● For routing as an example, if the valid-from date on operational level starts earlier than the validity start
date of costing view in work center, this will lead to an issue with missing activity types in routing and no
cost being calculated in the cost simulation run.
Mapping Instructions
Note
The system doesn't support combining internal and external number ranges in one source file.
● The Valid-From Date will be the current date if no value is provided in the source file.
● The Valid-From Date for BOM must be earlier than the Valid-From Date of the Routing. Otherwise, the BOM
can't be expanded and it will return an error.
● The Numerator will be set to 1 if no value is provided in the source file.
● The Denominator will be set to 1 if no value is provided in the source file.
● The BOM Usage and BOM Application are only mandatory for component allocation.
○ The BOM Usage controls the selection of the relevant BOM in the component assignment.
○ The BOM Application, in connection with the BOM Usage, controls the selection of the correct
alternative BOMs.
● BOM Item Category, BOM Component, and BOM Component Description are just provided in the template
to help you allocate the component; this data may be copied from the BOM Data Migration file or from the
target system.
● The Indicator for Relevancy to Costing on Operation Level field is mandatory; with the following options:
○ If you want the Costing Relevancy to be copied from the Control Key on the target system, enter the
value D.
○ If you want the operation to be irrelevant to costing, enter the value N.
○ If you want to enter a value for this field, then the field should be populated with either X, or another
option, as required.

Follow-On Activities
It's mandatory to migrate all routing in the Q system first and run a cost simulation run in your Q system. Then,
verify the results and check for inconsistencies before starting the data migration into the productive system.
After data migration into the productive system, It's mandatory to run the cost simulation and validation steps
in that system as well.

General Data
On the General Data sheet we only offer fields which might become relevant when you extend already existing
customers as supplier with the same number. If you want to extend an existing customer as supplier with the
same number, you have to fill out the customer number (reference number). You also have to fill the BP Roles
sheets. If you want to extend an already existing supplier by new org levels, you have to leave the reference
number empty.
Please consider: You can't transfer a value in one of the fields provided on the General Data sheet when the
supplier already exists.
During the use Supplier ID for integration with external systems step in the Convert Values task, you can switch
on the key mapping for the Supplier ID to be used for integration with external systems. In connection with this,
you must also maintain the Business System ID of your source system (to be used for integration) using the
Convert Values task to ensure that the key mapping is added to the central key mapping store of the SAP S/
4HANA system. This is only relevant if you extend an existing customer or contract partner as supplier with the
same number. If you extend an existing supplier with new org levels it is not necessary to switch on the key
mapping for the Supplier ID.

relationship.
If Vertex determines more than one tax jurisdiction code for a record, the migration of this record will fail. If this
happens, you'll have to provide a more detailed/accurate address, for example, a US Postal code with 9 digits
instead of 5 digits.
The more detailed and accurate an address, the better the tax jurisdiction code will be determined by Vertex.
For some addresses, Vertex will always provide more than one tax jurisdiction code. In this case you will have to
maintain this record manually or provide a correct tax jurisdiction code within the template.

Tip
For this migration object, the Custom Fields and Logic app is available. If you enhance your business object
with custom fields in the app, these custom fields will automatically be reflected in the XML template of the
corresponding migration object. See SAP Note 2726010 for further details.
Every time you add, change or delete a custom field, the migration project must be updated and a new
migration XML template must be downloaded and used. Thus, if custom fields are added or changed by an
application expert during migration testing, this must be communicated to and coordinated with your data
migration team. Also see the Extensibility section in the SAP S/4HANA Cloud documentation.
