Hi Ravi,

My answers....

1. What is the data Migratio procedure.

A). First is to anlayze the data to be migrated and make sure that all the pre0migration steps like data mapping, data cleansing, data massaging is done and the data is read to be migrated. Determine the number of records and the type of data to be migrated. Identify the method to migrate.

2. What FM we have to use for data migration

A). If its session method then it is BDC_OPEN_GROUP, BDC_INSERT, BDC_CLOSE_GROUP. If its call transaction then it is CALL TRANSACTION

3. where is the flat file stored

A). Depends it could be either on presenation server or Applications server.

Hi,

Go through the complete SAP Documentation on DATA UPLOAD programs like BDC and LSMW.

We use bothe BDC and LSMW for data migration.

In BDC there are gain 2, 3 types are there, Depending on the type we use different fun modules.

Flat file is the data file which client gives to you with the data that is to be uploaded into SAP.

Reward if useful
