Create project, Subproject, Object (freely definable, for the purpose of
identification) Use create icon in the menu. For example

2. Continue F8, Now you will see series of steps. Select the step and execute
it (Ctrl-F8). In each steps, we will do some activity and save it. Then
system prompts for the next activity.
3. Maintain object attributes. By default the screen in display mode, Click

7. Maintain field mapping and conversation rules. Here put the cursor on the
field and click on source field, now you can see the list of field available,
from which select one which is equal to the field on which you out the
cursor. You can also write coding (ABAP Code) on any field for the purpose of

can maintain values, if required.
9. Specify files. In this screen, place the cursor on Legacy data, then click

12. Display read data. Here, you can see the values, how the system read the
