Hi,

As all TR's transported and all master data created in production system,then 1st, you need to understand,how initial stock uploaded to SAP system!

For Open Purchase Order,you need to refer all Purchase Orders & find status of each Purchase Order and have LSMW or any uploading tools to upload into production system for each case where Purchase Orders are available in following levels

A.Open Purchase Order at Purchase Order level

B.Open Purchase Order at Goods Receipt Level

C.Open Purchase Order at Invoice level

Hi Rama,

As Biju said correctly, please check all the points..

I will share my personal experience with below points, which i have carried out during implementation :

-Collect the data of open po's from legacy system.

-Confirm whether all masters are uploaded in SAP - MMR & VMR

-Convery Legacy data into SAP data-codes (material, vendor)

-Confirm whether info record is needed or not. If yes, create info record for vendor/material combination. Take help of technical team for LSMW.

-Then, create all open po's in SAP. You can create manually, if no. of po's are less. Otherwise, take help of technical person for BAPI.

Hope, you can do it...all d best !!

Regds,

Nilesh

Additions to what Bijju and Nilesh said...

-- Prepare the list of open PO's from legacy system (Business need to define what is the defination of open PO).

-- If vendor master or material master no's changing from legacy to new system, prepare x-ref list for legacy master # and new SAP master#

--- After migrating PO's from legacy to new SAP system, validate accuracy of migarted data ...and plan to address any discrepency

-- You can also plan to put legacy PO's no in one the field in new SAP enviornment for x-ref purpose.

--Business also needs to plan to communicate to vendor about new PO's (cancel old PO's), shipping material and sending invoice during cut over period.

You can validate data by using PO display reports (ME2L, ME2M etc) or by taking dump from table EKKO & EKPO.

You can validate vendor#, material#, order qty, plant, price and any other details which is important to business.

Hi,

What believe from all your previous post is that you have finished all the cut-over activities upload and now you need to validate the same in SAP.

For that you can you standard reports,

ME2L - By Vendor

ME2M - By Material

ME2W - By Supplying Plant

With proper Selection Parameters on the screen open PO'S, GR and IR.

You can also Use ME80FN - General Analyses

                    ME81N - Analysis of Order Values
