Customizing Settings for the Migration 

Use

The Customizing settings that need to be made for a migration can be grouped by content into two main areas, and each area has a specific sequence in which the settings are made.

Activities

...

       1.      Customizing of New General Ledger Accounting

Make the Customizing settings relevant for the target scenario (that is, the Customizing settings for New General Ledger Accounting). This involves achieving the overall concept of the new portrayal of accounting with ledgers and where appropriate document splitting and testing the functions, testing for completeness, and testing the interaction of all internal and external document sources used. You should first perform such tests without considering the existing posting data. The steps are identical with the new implementation of New General Ledger Accounting and are described in the SAP Library under General Ledger Accounting (New ) ® Configuration.

       2.      Migration Customizing

When you have defined the target scenario, you then have to specify how the existing documents are to be migrated.

The framework for this is the migration plan, which combines all relevant activities. You find the migration plan and the current status of the migration in the New GL Migration Cockpit.

To handle documents posted prior to the migration separately with regard to document splitting, you can use an alternative Customizing structure for the migration (at selected places) in the Implementation Guide for the migration.
