Legacy System Migration Workbench (LSMW)

The LSM Workbench is an R/3-based tool that supports you when transferring data from non-SAP systems ("Legacy Systems") to
R/3 once or periodically.

The tool supports conversion of data of the legacy system in a convenient way. The data can then be imported into the R/3
system via Batch input, Direct input, BAPIs or IDocs. LSM Workbench provides a recording function that allows to generate a
"data migration object" in an entry or change transaction. Through LSMW, we can upload Master Data and Transaction Data.

The main advantages of the LSM Workbench:

Part of R/3 and thus independent of individual platforms
A variety of technical possibilities of data conversion
Data consistency due to standard import techniques

Batch input
Direct input
BAPIs (Business Application Programming Interfaces)
IDocs (Intermediate Documents)

The import technique to be used in an individual case depends on the business object.

Generation of the conversion program on the basis of defined rules
Clear interactive process guide
Interface for data in spreadsheet format
Creation of data migration objects on the basis of recorded transactions
Charge-free for SAP customers and SAP partners

Data can be imported from Legacy Data on the PC or from the Legacy Application Server, The imported data will be converted to
SAP format, to convert the data we create
Structure Relationships,
Field Assignments and
Conversion Rules,
The, converted Data can be exported in SAP through

LSMW to Upload Customer Master Records with Standard Object

Lets see an example of uploading Customer Master Record with Standard Object. Go to transaction code LSMW; create an
Project CUSTOMERS , Subproject Object XD01 and Object CUST_NEW as shown below, then click Execute.



The main screen of LSMW provides wizard-like step-by-step tasks. To complete your data conversion, you need to execute these
steps in sequence. Once a step is executed, the cursor is automatically positioned to the next step.

On the initial screen, you can create a new project, corresponding subprojects and objects via Edit -> Create new entry.
Project : An ID with a maximum of 10 characters to name your data transfer project. If you want to transfer data from
several legacy systems, you may create a project e.g. for every legacy system.
Subproject : An ID with a maximum of 10 characters that is used as further structuring attribute.
Object : An ID with a maximum of 10 characters to name the business object.
In the initial screen, All objects provides a list of all projects created already. My objects displays a list of all objects you created
personally. All objects of the project displays all objects of the selected project as tree structure. Project documentation displays
any documentation written for the individual pop ups and processing steps. you can print the project documentation out, send it
and save it in various file formats.

Select Documentation to enter your notes. After clicking, a popup is displayed in which you can write down your personal
documentation. The documentation function is additionally available under Administration and Recordings in the first seven steps
of data migration.
Below, you find an example for a project with several subprojects and objects. This representation is displayed by pushing the
button All objects of the project:


Note that these steps may look different depending upon your Personal menu settings. You could make step numbers visible by
Numbers on icon or hidden by Numbers off icon. You can execute a step by double-clicking on the row. Toggle icon
Doubleclick=Display or Doubleclick=Edit, makes the step in display mode or change mode.

Step 1: Maintain Object attributes

You will be updating the customer master records with the help of Standard Batch Input; therefore, choose radio-button Standard
Batch/Direct Input as shown below. Enter Object 0050 for Customer Master records and default method 0000 and click on
Save.



Step 2: Maintain Source Structure

The source structures (LS structures) are defined with the ID, name, and hierarchical relationships. Start with the highest
hierarchy level since only hierarchies with the same level or a lower level can be created.

Select Create (Cont+F4) then give description as below.

Step 3. Maintain Source Fields

Keep the cursor on XD01 (our Source Structure) and click on Table Maintenance icon.
In this step, you need to list the fields are present in the source structure. The easiest way is to click on Table Maintenance
icon to enter Fieldname, Type and Length for each field. If your fields are more, I suggest type them in Excel and Paste them
SAP.



Step 4: Maintain Structure Relations

The Standard Object 0050 we maintained in the first Step requires BGR00, BKN00 and BKNA1 to be maintained irrespective of u
need changes init or not. The only logic for this is, all the top Structures to be assigned to reach up to the bottom. For our
scenario, we need to update BKNA1, BKNB1 and BKNVV. (If you do not maintain Structure relations for mandatory entries, you

might get a message such as Target structure BKNA1 needs a relation to a source structure.) Even though you dont want to
update any fields in these structures, you NEED to create a relationship with source structures. In all, you need to create
relationship for four target structures. Create relationship between source structures XD01 with these target structures with icon
Create Relationship .
Keep Cursor on these four target structures and click on icon Create Relation and structure relations are maintained

Step 5: Maintain field mapping and conversion rules

Here, our Transaction Code is constant throughout the process, so we maintain it as Constant to do this, keep your cursor on
TCODE field and click on Insert Rule icon

Assign rules:

Initial: This deletes the coding assigned to the target field. In addition, source fields assigned to the target fields are removed
as well. Depending on the object type, the target field is assigned the following value:
For standard batch input/standard direct input: Nodata characters (determined e.g. in session header BGR00,
BI000)
For batch input recording: '/' as nodata character
For BAPIs, IDocs: Clear field (i.e.: character field blank; numeric field '00...0')

Move: The data is transferred using ABAP command "Move". For source fields that are not of type 'C' or 'N', this means:

Packed field Unpack to target field WRITE...TO...
Date field
Popup to select
- internal format
- user format
-
e.g. 01.10.1998


YYYYMMDD
Amount field
Batch input/direct input: The amount
value is edited according to the format
settings in the user master.
BAPIs, IDocs: The amount value keeps
the internal calculation format.

Constant: The target field is assigned a fixed value.
Fixed value (reusable): A "fixed value object" (variable) named FV_<fixedvalue>is assigned to the target field. This fixed value
object is filled with an actual value in step "Maintain fixed values, translations and user-written routines".
Translation (reusable): The target field is assigned coding carrying out field contents conversion using a translation table. The
values of this translation table can be entered in step "Maintain fixed values, translations and user-written routines" see Error!
Reference source not found..
Prefix: Specify any prefix to precede the contents of the source field.
Suffix: Specify any suffix follow the contents of the source field.
Concatenation: You can concatenate two or more source fields.
Transfer left-justified: Transfers the contents of the source field in left-justified form.
ABAP coding: Double-clicking on a target field branches off to the ABAP editor. There you can edit generated ABAP coding or
write and save your own coding. A large part of the usual standard R/3 editor functions, such as Check (syntax check), Pretty
Printer, etc., are available there.
Under Insert you can add the following to your coding:
source fields: all source fields available are displayed for selection
global variable: see 5.7
global functions: see Error! Reference source not found.
XFIELD: This is a special function for processing of IDocs. In some cases an X-structure exists in addtion to the data transfer
structure (where the values for the import can be found); the fields of this X-structure have to be filled with X or blank to decide if
the corresponding field in the data transfer structure should be transfered or not.

Choose radio button Constant to enter value XD01 transaction code. In the same way select the fields that you want to maintain
constant values and give values, like company code, currency, etc., Here I have given many constant values like Sales
Organization, Distribution Channel, Division, Customer A/c Group and many other. But I have selected only 7 fields that are
variable from customer to customer, for which we have created in source field. So to assign a source field, keep the cursor on the
filed like NAME1 and select Source Field and select NAME1. And in the same way for all the 7 fields we have
maintained the source. Here exactly match each field with its source field.

Step 6: Maintain fixed values, translations, user-defined routines
You can also maintain re-usable translations and user-defined routines, which can be used across conversion tasks. In this case,
that step is not required.

Before continuing to the next step we have to have the source file to upload. First we create it and then will move to next step.
First create file Excel like below.



And Save as Text (Tab delimited) like below

Step 11: Convert data

This is the step that actually converts the source data (in source format) to a target format. Based on the conversion rules defined,
source fields are mapped to target fields. These files CUSTOMER_XD01_CUS_NEW.lsmw.read and
CUSTOMER_XD01_CUS_NEW.lsmw.conv are stored in your PC at D:\usr\sap\<SID>\DVEBMGS00\work folder this is the
default location. Once the data is converted u can create a Batch Input Session with this files as many times as u can, to do that,
go to SE38 and type RFBIDE00 and specify the file name and execute the Batch Input session will be created.
Double click on step 11 Convert Data and select Execute . Again screen appears like this
