Migration cockpit provides standard object to create Sales Order (open SO). Here you see how to create your own migration objects to modify (Insert, Update & Delete) Sales order (for already created Sales Order ) with the migration object modeler.

 

Creating Z object in Migration Object to change the Sales Order

 Process to Create Z object

Enter transaction LTMC   field to start Migration cockpit.

Choose Create to create a new project

 

Enter <Change the SO> in the text field.

Select Transfer Data from File approach. The system automatically generates the mass transfer ID that is used for your project and it is unique.

 

 

 

Your newly created project is opened automatically.Here, you see the standard migration objects that are available in your current version.

 

 

Switch to easy access menu and enter transaction LTMOM  start the migration object modeler.

If you want to create a new Migration object, you have to select the migration object you created earlier so that the same mass transfer ID is assigned to your newly created migration object.

 

Select the project view and enter your project <change the SO>, which you created in Migration cockpit earlier

 

 

 

 

In the following steps, you create your own migration object.

Choose Migration Object ⇒ Create Migration Object ⇒ User – defined.

 

 

Enter technical name for your migration object.

The system will add prefix Z_ to your technical name

Enter the description. Choose next.

complete the next information

• Enter BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE in the text field Name of Function Module and Press Enter

This is the function Module (FM – BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE) that facilitates Insert, Delete and Update of Sales Order. (More Details can be found in BAPI documentation).

 

 

Options for processing Business Object Instances –

• Process One Instance at a Time – The system will only pass one instance at a time to the function module This means if N instances are read, the function module will be called N times.
• Process Multiple Instance at a Time: The system will pass all instances to the function module at once. This means that the function module is called only once.

Choose One instance per time.

 

Options for Return Parameter Settings –

• Return Parameter(Optional) – This should be a table with BAPIRET2 type that will store all the messages.Choose RETURN parameter
• Include for Handling the result parameter(Optional) – This will create an perform where you will be able to give some extra treatment to the messages

Options for Return Parameter Settings –

• Simulation Parameter(Optional), its the flag name that the object will know if its or not an test execution
• Value for Simulation(Optional), this is the value of the flag that will be used as a test flag
• Value for Writing Data(Optional), this is the value of the flag that will be used as a execute flag

 

At this point  your project was empty, now you will be able to check it in LTMOM.

Adding Fields to Structure

On the screen you can now see the newly created migration object Z_Change_SO_013.

Ensure that you are in Change mode. Double-click on Source structures to create relevant source structure.

Right Click on Source structure (in the middle screen) . Choose Append structure to Lower level

Enter the <header_so> as Name. Enter <Change the SO> in the Description field and press OK.

You can either add the source fields manually or select the upload button to upload the relevant source structure, if you have a csv file.

Here, we are adding the structure manually.

 

Choose Add field to add source structure fields

You can see the added source structure fields.

Save your changes.

 

Mapping Source structure and Target structure

 

Now you have to do structure mapping. Firstly, turn off the technical names

 

To change the technical names on/off

Goto settings→Technical names ON/OFF

 

Now map Source structure with target.

Source Structure	Target Structure
Header_SO	R_SALESDOCUMENT
	R_ORDER_HEADER_IN
	R_ORDER_HEADER_INX
	R_ORDER_ITEM_IN
	R_SCHEDULE_LINES
	R_SCHEDULE_LINESX

 

Drag and drop the source structure with target structure

 

 

Mapping Source Fields to Target Fields

 

Here you map source structure fields to target structure fields.

 

Double click Field – Mapping

 

In the Field mapping area, you can map fields from the source structure to fields in the target structure.

 

 

Mapping has to be done by moving source field with corresponding target field.

 

Source Structure Field	Target structure field
Header_SO – VBELN	R_SALESDOCUMENT – SALES Document

 

 

 

Source Structure Field	Target structure field
Header_SO – POSNR	R_ORDER_ITEM_IN – ITM_NUMBER
Header_SO – MATNR	R_ORDER_ITEM_IN – MATERIAL
Header_SO – WERKS	R_ORDER_ITEM_IN – PLANT

 

Source Structure Field	Target structure field
Header_SO – POSNR	R_ORDER_ITEM_INX – ITM_NUMBER
Header_SO – FLAG	R_ORDER_ITEM_INX –  UPDATE FLAG
	R_ORDER_ITEM_INX –  MATERIAL (Assign rule manually)
	R_ORDER_ITEM_INX –  PLANT (Assign rule manually)

 

How to Assign rule manually –

Right Click on the PLANT → select Assign rule.

Enter MOVE in Rule name field, press enter.

Enter ‘X’ in Parameter value and save.

This will assign defined rules.

 

 

Source Structure Field	Target structure field
Header_SO – POSNR	R_SCHEDULE_LINES – ITM_NUMBER
Header_SO – ETRNR	R_SCHEDULE_LINES – SCHED_LINE
Header_SO – ETDAT	R_SCHEDULE_LINES – REQ_DATE
Header_SO – WMENG	R_SCHEDULE_LINES – REQ_QTY

 

Source Structure Field	Target structure field
Header_SO – POSNR	R_SCHEDULE_LINESX – ITM_NUMBER
Header_SO – ETENR	R_SCHEDULE_LINESX –  SCHED_LINE
Header_SO – FLAG	R_SCHEDULE_LINESX – UPDATEFLAG
	R_SCHEDULE_LINESX – REQ_DATE (Assign rule manually)
	R_SCHEDULE_LINESX – REQ_QTY (Assign rule Manually)

 

How to Assign rule manually –

Right Click on the REQ_DATE ⇒ select Assign rule.

 

Enter MOVE in Rule name field, press enter.

Enter ‘X’ in Parameter value and save.

This will assign defined rules.

After assigning the rules, the structure should look something like this.

 

 

 Generate the Migration Object

 

Click on save and choose Generate Runtime  Object.

This generates the Runtime object and now you can download template in Migration cockpit.

As you can see in the display logs, the object was created without any errors.

 

Download Template file in the migration cockpit.

 

Finally, you can use this template to Update, Delete or Insert Sales order.One thing to be aware while updating the already processed records is Migration Cockpit keeps a record of the key of records to prevent duplicated key being import again.

So you need to clear the records using report DMC_FM_RESTART_COPY_DELETE in se38.

After above cleaning steps are done, you can modify your file and upload again.
