SAP Data Migration with LSMW
Legacy System Migration Workbench (LSMW) is a tool recommended by SAP that you can use to transfer data once only or periodically from legacy systems into an R/3 System.
This is one of the very powerful tools available in SAP to upload large amount of data to the system. This tools is comparable to ecatt or scatt. But the advantage LSMW has over them is the amount of data processed in single session. Moreover LSMW is easer to learn and execute.
Through LSMW one can create Master data, create transactional data, modify existing master data etc. This tool is very useful when some mass changes are to be carried out and no standard SAP transactions are available for that. There are few standard objects available in LSMW e.g. material master, vendor master, customer master, purchasing info record, purchase requisitions, purchase orders etc. Using these standard objects one can do mass data upload and mass transactions. Apart from this LSMW provides another functionality of recording the transaction and then carrying that out many times with large data. eg for that can be mass deletion of purchase requisitions, mass deletion of planned orders etc.
For creating simple projects user can go to tcode LSMW and get started. All the steps are listed very nicely and system will not allow user to skip the steps enlisted. User will need to create Project, Subproject and Object.
Input to LSMW can be simple excel sheet or text tab delimited file(text file like note pad).
Example of a LSMW project in step wise manner is presented below:
Simply enter the field names in the first line of the table, and the LSM Workbench's import routine automatically generates the input file for your conversion program.
The LSM Workbench lets you check the data for migration against the current settings of your customizing. The check is performed after the data migration, but before the update in your database.
