This is possible but hyou must have everything set up right.

1) Create a file of the legacy lots along with material number and batch number.

2) Create 89 inspection lots using the material number and batch number, (LSMW). You might want to put into the short text of the inspection lot the legacy inspection lot number for easy reference.

3) You should have made sure that the inspection plan used in the new system for this is IDENTICAL to the one in the legacy system.

4) Download the results from the legacy lots.

5) Map the legacy characteristics to the new characteristic numbers

6) upload the legacy results to the appropriate inspection lots. (probably an ABAP program for this, not LSMW).

It won't be easy. The above is a very high level outline of the steps. You'll find a lot of details still to be added.

The new inspection lots WILL NOT match the legacy ones. You will not be able to do that. Trying to do so will cause you all kinds of headaches and could realy screw up your number ranges for the inspection lots. And in reality, there is no need to do so.

Hi,

My suggestion to u r query, take only opened (Without UD) inspection lots in new system, UD happened lots keep in old system 4.1 becs these inspection lots will have only reference purpose.
