SAP S/4HANA Migration Cockpit: File and Staging Table Approaches

Keep this: job aid

Migration Cockpit staging-table card

• App: Migrate Your Data – Migration Cockpit; approach: Migrate Data Using Staging Tables (local or remote schema).
• One project per wave and mock; read each object's documentation first.
• Respect dependencies: banks and business partners, products, then dependent master data, then open items.
• Templates: XML or CSV; never change the structure; watch dates, decimals, leading zeros.
• Upload limits (as SAP has described): 100 MB per XML file; split files or fill tables directly.
• Steps: fill → prepare → map → simulate → migrate → validate.
• Mappings and fixed values come from the owner-approved specification; carry them across mocks deliberately.
• Simulate small slices first; group messages by cause and owner.
• Fix causes where they live; reprocess only open records.
• Extracted = migrated + failed with defect + excluded with approval.
