Mass data load into SAP R/3 - with XI?

[Former Member]

Hi guys!

I have an issue - mass data migration into SAP R/3. Is XI a good solution? It will be about 60GB of data. Or is there a better way of this data load?

Thanx a lot!

60 GB is a lot of data. I dont think XI should be used for such requirements.

Can you give more details?

Really interesting. In my project now the customer is actually using XI for some initial data loading, so that the interface programs can be re-used in the data conversion. Anyways 60GB is too much. Use file directly would be a better idea.

Thank you all guys!

I will definetely not use XI for this case.

Hi Olian,

Dont use XI for such huge data migration into R/3.....instead create a BDC and upload the data via BDC.......

Thanks,

hi,

SAP doesn't recomment using XI for mass data migration

and 60 Gb is certainly too much

use LSMW for that purpose
