Data Migration Cockpit (DMC)

The SAP S/4HANA Migration Cockpit is an alternative to LSMW with more features and better control for Data Migration.

Introduction of Data Migration Cockpit was done in SAP S/4HANA Release 1610 in the On Premise Version.

Data migration cockpit facilitates the transfer of master data / business data from source system to SAP S/4 Hana system. The migration cockpit uses migration objects to identify and transfer the relevant data. It contains information about the relevant source and target structures as well as and the relationships between these structures. It also contains mapping information for the relevant fields, as well as any rules used to convert the values that are migrated from source fields to target fields. SAP provides standard predefined migration objects which are ready to use objects, we can alter these objects as well for our custom needs.

      Dear Ravi,

       

      Nice blog!

       

      However, how well is the product tested? Any reference implementations? How well does the product handle numeric input?

       

      Regards

      Dear Ravi,

      are customers allowed to use MWB?

      As far as I know a customer need to require a license to use MWB.

      Dear Ravi,

      what about customers conversion objects? We need special object types concerning RE-FX, for instance business entities, buildings, rental objects, rental contracts and so on.  Are developer notes available to create objects like SIF_CUSTOMER?
