Migration of historical data

127 Views

Hi Experts,

We have a requirement to migrate the historical data from BCS. SAP has suggested 2 approaches for Migration.

Approach 1:Prepare and load data for all Consolidation Units in Local Currency and Group Currency for all Posting levels and Document types, that are required where no tasks need to be run

Approach 2:Prepare and load data for all Consolidation Units in Local Currency and potentially fully/partly in Group Currency – especially if Group Currency values will also be received from the Accounting system in future for some accounts (e.g. for Income statement accounts)

I have questions about approach 1:

1. If for example, we are uploading the Standalone and consolidated data in period 12, don't we need to run the first consolidation in the GR system.

2. Does this approach carries the COI statistical FSI values? If so, how do the statistical FSI values are derived at?

3. Do we need to provide the control data for the first consolidation in period 12 with the investor and investee relationship?

4. After the balance carry forward, in period 1 can we do the subsequent consolidation if the answer to point 1 is NO?

Thanks in advance for your answers.

Regards,

Vijay
