This video provides an introduction to the SAP Data Migration Cockpit, a tool used for migrating master data and business data from SAP systems and non-SAP systems to SAP S/4HANA. Here are the key points:
- SAP Data Migration Cockpit (DMC): The video explains that the SAP DMC is a new upload tool for the SAP S/4HANA environment, replacing the LSMW tool and the LTMC tool. The DMC is positioned as the only tool for integration in SAP S/4HANA on-premises 2020 Edition and onwards.
- Data Migration Approaches: The video outlines the two approaches for data migration offered by the DMC: using a staging table or using files. From SAP S/4HANA on-premises 2020 Edition, the DMC can directly link from the SAP ECC system to bring data to the DMC.
- Data Migration Process: The video describes the data migration process using the DMC. The process starts with data extraction from the data source, which can be an Excel sheet or a staging table. Then, transformations are performed if required, such as data maturing or replacement. Finally, the load functionality is used to put the data into the SAP S/4HANA system.
- Features of the DMC: The video highlights the features of the DMC, including clear documentation, simulation process, automated mapping between source and target, and reduced migration time. It also mentions that the DMC does not require exclusive technical knowledge or developer skill sets.
- Customization with Migration Object Modeler: The video mentions that the DMC supports customization for custom requirements using the Migration Object Modeler. This allows for modifications based on specific needs beyond the standard objects provided by the DMC.
