SAP Finance Data Migration

1.1 Data Assessment & Quality Review

·      Review and challenge source data extractions (Trial Balance, Open Items, Fixed Assets) by performing the usual integrity checks (checking that the sum of the auxiliary/non auxiliary open items is indeed equal to the general balance of the reconciliation G/L account, checking that the MRU does not create a VAT impact if we decide to take over the VAT manually or does not take over a duplicate VAT impact depending on the data migration strategy, checking that the auxiliary files for taking over fixed assets do indeed loop back to the trial balance, etc.).

·      Ensure compliance with the Canal + Universal Accounting Data Migration Engine (MRU) templates and data specifications.

·      Ensure compliance with rules of good accounting orthodoxy.

·      Identify quality issues, inconsistencies, missing data.

1.2 Chart of Accounts Mapping & Finance Alignment

·      Lead the mapping between local charts of accounts and the Group chart of accounts.

·      Establish and support the Data Migration Strategy Matrix that carry the data migration rules per G/L accounts (Balance vs Open Items vs Not Migrated).

·      Make sure that the settings/key attributes of SAP G/L accounts respect the operation of the G/L accounts in the Legacy system. And vice versa. And if differences, they have to be well documented and validated by CANAL+. For instance, a target G/L non-auxiliary account for source auxiliary operations.

·      Coordinate decisions with Group Finance and document all mapping rules and exceptions.

1.3 Preparation of the SAP Environments

·      Create / update general ledger accounts

·      Perform deduplication and migration of Business Partners (customers and vendors) based on name, National Unique ID (for example VAT ID Numbers) and address.

·      Configure the MRU parameters for data loading

1.4 Execution of Migration Cycles

·      Perform the loading of Trial Balance, Open Items, and Fixed Assets for:

o  RUN 1: Structural validation in DS4 environment (as of 31/12/2025)

o  RUN 2: Functional and reconciliation testing in YS4 environment (as of 30/03/2026)

o  Production RUN: Final cutover in productive environment (as of 30/06/2026)

·      Contribute to reconciliation exercises (source vs SAP) and conduct User Acceptance Tests with Local Teams on migrated data.
