Handling Errors in Phase PARRUN_SMIG_SFIN

Numerous errors may occur during the Preprocessing roadmap step in phase MAIN_SMIG_UT_MIGRATION/SUBMOD_SMIG_SCENARIOS/SUBMOD_SMIG_SFIN/PARRUN_SMIG_SFIN

Context

You can find a summary of these errors in the upgrade log.

To view detailed error messages, proceed as follows:

Procedure

  1. Log on to the affected client of the temporary system in SAPGui with user DDIC while the temporary system is locked.
  2. Start transaction FINS_MIG_STATUS to view the detailed error log.

    The use of various transactions is limited in the temporary system as not all application tables are available. You might not be able to fix missing customizing using IMG activities, for example. This needs to be fixed in the customizing source system and included in the customizing transport for the customer buffer for the next iteration.

  3. Decide accordingly what activity you need to perform:
    • Use of transaction FINS_MIG_STATUS to analyze detailed error messages from data migration and to accept these errors.
    • Use of transactions SE16 or SE16H for root cause analysis.
    • Use of transaction FINS_MIG_STATUS to repeat migration steps after corrections.
    • Once you have analyzed and fixed the errors, lock the temporary system in case it was unlocked and restart the upgrade and the conversion procedure.
