UNIT 12: Migrating Data to SAP S/4HANA Cloud, Public Edition

Q2: What preparation activities must you complete before transferring data using a separate HANA staging database? A. Deploy the SAP HANA DBaaS B. Integrate the legacy database to your SAP S/4HANA target system C. Request activation of the Data Migration to SAP S/4HANA from Staging (2Q2) scope item with a ticket D. Request activation of the Data Migration to SAP S/4HANA from File (BH5) scope item with a ticket E. Integrate the legacy database to the staging database

A, C, & E; You must (1) deploy the SAP HANA DBaaS on Business Technology Platform, (2) request activation of the Data Migration to SAP S/4HANA from Staging (2Q2) scope item with a ticket, and (3) integrate the legacy database to the staging database before transferring data to SAP S/4HANA with a separate HANA staging database

Q3: Where can you find the Migration Object Template documentation? A. SAP Roadmap Viewer accelerator B. SAP Best Practices Explorer C. SAP Help Portal D. SAP Support Portal

C; You can find the Migration Object Template documentation in the SAP Help Portal

For the transfer of data using separate SAP HANA staging database (Remote SAP HANA Database Schema connection)​, you must first activate which scope item?

Data Migration to SAP S/4HANA from Staging (2Q2) and set up the integration between SAP S/4HANA and staging database

The tasks to extract, prepare, and execute data migration are all defined in the relevant implementation phases of which methodology?

SAP Activate Methodology

The SAP S/4HANA Migration Cockpit is designed for data transfer from customer legacy system9s0 to:

SAP S/4HANA and SAP S/4HANA Cloud during implementation

What does Data Migration use to automatically display a situation message when the data migration is completed and results are available?

Situation Handling

What is the Data Management and Landscape Transformation (SAP DMLT)?

The SAP DMLT team will transform your data and system landscapes to support mergers, acquisitions, and organizational restructuring, in addition to reviewing and consolidating system landscapes to reduce the cost of operating distributed systems worldwide. The team will analyze and clean incorrect data, and work with customers to unify and standardize financial and controlling processes.

SAP predelivers template files for migration objects in the SAP S/4HANA Migration Cockpit. You can populate the data manually or use tools such as SAP Data Services. Template files can be downloaded in two formats:

XML or CSV--XML is the recommended format

What is a staging table?

a database table that contains business data

What is the Migration Cockpit?

a ready-to-use data migration solution with a set of comprehensive template-based migration objects for transferring business data. It automatically maps source data to the SAP S/4HANA target values and generates the necessary migration programs, so there is no programming required.

In the extensibility framework, certain migration objects support custom fields created in the Custom Fields and Logic app. If the migration cockpit detects a custom field in a target function module or CDS behavior definition for a migration object, it will:

automatically add it to the source structure of the migration object to allow data to be entered for the field.

The Data Migration Design Support service addresses customers and their partners that need to:

build or review their data migration concept for their transition from on-premise SAP solutions to those based in the cloud

If you manually populate data by copy-pasting, make sure to paste VALUES ONLY to strip any formatting from the data. If any existing formatting gets pulled into the XML template, it will:

corrupt the file and you will not be able to upload it

The migration approach in SAP S/4HANA Cloud systems has 2 methods. Explain the 1st method of transferring data using template files (Local SAP S/4HANA Database Schema connection):

create migration projects in the Migrate Your Data app + map migration objects to projects + download corresponding template for each object + populate template in Excel + upload the template and follow migration steps to import the data

Who is the target audience of the SAP Data Management and Landscape Transformation services (SAP DMLT)?

customers executing the selective data transition implementation path

Who is the target audience of the SAP Value Assurance Data Migration Design Support service?

customers transitioning from on-premise SAP solutions to cloud-based solutions

The SAP S/4HANA migration object modeler is an application that can be used to:

enhance the migration objects that are used in the SAP S/4HANA Migration Cockpit

What is the Migrate Your Data app?

guides you through the migration process with a step-by-step workflow that has built-in validation checks to ensure data quality and consistency.

The migration approach in SAP S/4HANA Cloud systems has 2 methods. Explain the 2nd method of transferring data using a separate HANA staging database:

integrate your SAP S/4HANA cloud system with a separate SAP HANA database + consultants create migration projects using Migrate Your Data + map migration objects to projects + through the integration with SAP HANA staging database, migration object data is populated in SAP S/4HANA Cloud

What is the migration approach in an SAP S/4HANA Cloud system?

migrate data using staging tables

Extended statistics in the Data Migration Status app provide details about:

migrated data, such as source values, target values after mapping, and target IDs.

In the Data Migration Status app, turning off extended statistics will:

stop logging new data and DELETE previously logged data

To enable the migration cockpit to properly transfer your legacy data, you must first enter the dates on which you want to complete all preparatory activities for each company code in which app?

the Define Settings for Legacy Transfer app

When preparing to migrate data, you must have which business roles assigned to your user?

the data migration expert business role (SAP_BR_CONFIG_EXPERT_DATA_MIG) and all relevant business roles that correspond with the migration objects for which you are migrating data

How is the SAP S/4HANA Migration Cockpit accessed?

through the Migrate Your Data Fiori app on the Fiori Launchpad

You can specify a retention period for data when you set a migration project to what status?

"Finished"

List 6 benefits of the SAP S/4HANA Migration Cockpit:

1. included in every license of each S/4HANA deployment option 2. automated mapping between source and target 3. pre-configured SAP S/4HANA-specific migration content 4. guidance and simulation for the migration process 5. SAP Value Assurance for data migration 6. lower migration time and costs

What are the 2 methods of the migration approach in SAP S/4HANA Cloud?

1. transfer data using template files (Local SAP S/4HANA Database Schema connection) 2. transfer data using separate HANA staging database (Remote SAP HANA Database Schema connection)

Q1: What are the 2 options for transferring data to SAP S/4HANA Cloud? A. Data Migration to SAP S/4HANA from Staging (2Q2) B. Data Migration to SAP S/4HANA from SAP (BH3) C. Data Aging (1K8) D. Data Migration to SAP S/4HANA from File (BH5)

A & D; The two options for transferring data to SAP S/4HANA Cloud are Data Migration to SAP S/4HANA from File (BH5), and Data Migration to SAP S/4HANA from Staging (2Q2).
