The method for transferring rental unit master data is in direct input
You use this method in several cases such as to transfer rental unit master data from a previous system into the SAP system during system installation.
Rental unit master data is imported from a sequential file using direct input so as to create master data.
During direct input, the data is directly imported using a function module. The screens do not run in the background. In this way, this type of data transfer is much quicker than the batch input .
The program reads in the sequential file that is designated as a program parameter and then the program updates the master data.
Note
The system makes the same checks during automatic data transfer as it does during manual data entry. The same error messages and warnings are issued; data is posted in the same way and updated in the database.
The fields that can be filled in the rental unit are defined by the transfer structure. There are the following transfer structures for the rental unit:
Note
Consecutive tables display an assignment list of structures to screen fields. "/" = No corresponding field in the screen.

To simplify the transfer of old data, SAP supplies you with the
Legacy System Migration Workbench (LSM Workbench)
The LSM Workbench is not included in the standard scope of supply but you can request it for the transfer of old data.
The LSM Workbench simplifies the generation of sequential files. However, the LSM Workbench is not an absolute prerequisite for data transfer.
