Legacy Data, MDM and ECC

[#1]

Hi,

We are using SAP supplied repository for consolidating Material records. This repository is just a small set of all Material fields available in ECC. We are planning to bring in data from legacy system, de-dup it in MDM and then send it to the target ECC system. However, we am not sure that after sending this data in ECC, how can we then complete this data in ECC with the rest of the values from the legacy system. We don't want to manually extend these records in ECC as this would mean a lot of work on users side. What other options are available that we can use to complete this data programmatically (ABAP, ALE, BDC???). What does SAP recommends?

Thanks,

T

If u can get the extra fields which u need to populate to ECC in csv format in a table, then while syndicating in syndicator u can use Merge items to create extra fields and Map this CSV source to them .Below is the link about how to Proceed with Merge items and what is it.
