Finance Conversion Essentials

Keep this: job aid

Finance conversion checklist

• Run the SI-Check early and weekly; fix return codes 8 and 12 in ECC, exempt 7 knowingly.
• Finish business partner synchronization and asset reconciliation (RAABST01/02) to zero before Mock 1.
• Inventory: close MMPV, explain every MB5L difference, analyze GR/IR before the sandbox.
• Freeze the before-picture report list, variants and selections after Mock 1.
• Follow SAP Note 2332030 for your release; monitor activities in FINS_MIG_STATUS; fix-reset-repeat or accept with a reason.
• Log start, end, errors and decisions for every finance activity in every mock.
• Reconcile G/L by ledger, open items, assets by area, stock by plant, CO actuals: zero tolerance, same classic report before and after.
• Go-live Sunday: run reports in parallel by company code from 10:00; Dan signs before go/no-go 2 at 14:00.
• Sign-off chain: area owners, test lead, finance process owner, then go/no-go; balances are never conditional.
• Hypercare: compare the first real close with the rehearsal close, step by step.
