Avoid Redundancynon disruptive with equally named views for previous total/index tables
The basis tables BKPF, BSEG/BSEG_ADD and FAGLFLEXA remain almost unchanged.Index and totals tables have been replaced with compatibility views (aka equally namedviews). These views have the same name as the original tables, contain the same fieldsand shall allow for a smooth transition to the new data model in the standard as well as inthe partner and customer coding.

Avoid Redundancynon disruptive with equally named views for previous total tables

Consequences from avoiding redundancy (1)compensation for missing data
Missing columnsa) New fields in BSEG coming from Index tables (BSID, BSIK,…)b) New fields in BSEG_ADD coming from Index tables (FAGLBSIS, FAGLBSAS)
Elimination of totals and index tables would result in data loss forinstalled base customers if no countermeasures are taken.
1. Missing columns (fields, which are filled in index and totals tables and missingin the line items)
2. Missing rows (archived or partially archived documents)
© 2013 SAP AG. All rights reserved. 12
Consequences from avoiding redundancy (2)compensation for missing data
Missing rowsa) Partially archived documents are taken out of BKPF/BSEG, but still kept in the index
tables for reporting purposes.
Solution shown for Index BSIS: Table BSIS gets renamed to BSIS_BCK during upgrade This stepsaves the BSIS data and at the same time makes the name space available for the compatibility view.The view BSIS reads data from the BKPF/BSEG and in addition the partially archived documents fromBSIS_BCK.

Consequences from avoiding redundancy (3)compensation for missing data
Missing rowsb) Totals tables can contain data of past fiscal years, where the customer already have
archived the related FI documents.
Solution shown for total KNC1: Table KNC1 gets renamed to KNC1_BCK during upgrade. The datamigration, which is triggered after the upgrade, fills the delta table KNC1_DIF as a difference betweenKNC1_BCK and BKPF/BSEG. View KNC1 then reads from BSEG and from KNCX_DIF, so that the viewKNC1 yields the same data as the original table KNC1.

Consequences from avoiding redundancy (4)compensation for missing data
Missing rowsc) Before sFIN Balance carryforward from the prior fiscal year are writing into dedicated key
figures in the totals tables. Now special line items are written into the line item tableFAGLFLEXA (only in FAGLFLEXA no BSEG).

• Create cold store for old index tables (for partially archived documents)• Update FI-AA customizing/ Import FI-AA Customizing• Run Reconciliation reports to check data consistency• Execute financial reports and compare financial KPI‘s with KPI‘s from preparation phase• Perform process tests to ensure successful migration (in test system)
• Backup (BCK) tables are created in DDIC for all tables, which will be made obsolet (totals and index)• Run check report, if all necessary BCK tables have been created• Rename index and total tables into x_BCK• Delete original index and total tables and generate views instead• Import and Activate new sFIN programs
• Import Customizing for initial balance carry forward (in productive system)• Preparation phase includes: reconciliation report to check data consistency before proceeding with financial
data migration, automaticaly fill table for AP/AR balances carried forward• Perform sFIN Migration (Fill Deltatables, Perform initial balance carry forward (if necessary), Merge line items
CO& FI)
• Import New GL Customizing (if necessary)• Run migration from data original stored in classical GL into New GL data structures (FAGLFLEXA)• Data Migration Check via reconciliation of source and target data
