Sr Techno-functional SAP S/4HANA Data Migration & Integration Lead - Remote
- Work with business users to identify all
data that needs to be migrated from legacy systems.
- Analyze the source data structure,
fields, and values.
- Identify data quality issues (e.g.,
duplicates, incomplete data, incorrect formats) that need to be fixed
before migration.
- Leverage the predefined Migration Object
template from the Migration Cockpit.
- Map each field in the source system to
the corresponding field in the S/4HANA template.
- Document all transformation rules
- Configure all "Value Mapping"
tasks. This is where you formally define translation rules for specific
values
- Work with a technical developer if a
standard migration object is not sufficient.
- Provide the mapping logic to the
developer so they can use the Migration Object Modeler (LTMOM) to add
custom fields or create new custom migration objects.
- Participate in migration test cycles
(unit testing, integration testing).
- Minimum 5-8 years of experience in SAP data-related roles
(e.g., SAP Data Analyst, ETL Developer, or SAP Functional Consultant
with a heavy data focus)
- Expert-level knowledge of the S/4HANA Migration Cockpit,
using both "Migrate Data Using Staging Tables" and
"Migrate Data Directly from SAP System" (if applicable)
approaches
- Hands-on experience using LTMOM to enhance or customize
standard migration objects
- Proficiency in data quality, profiling, and cleansing.
Strong SQL skills are essential for querying source databases to
analyze, extract, and transform data before it even reaches the S/4HANA
staging tables
- Experience with traditional SAP data loading tools (e.g.,
LSMW, BAPI, IDoc) is highly beneficial, as it demonstrates a
foundational understanding of SAP data loading principles.
- A strong understanding of modern API structures,
specifically OData (for S/4HANA) and SOAP. They must be able to read and
interpret an API schema to identify all mappable fields and structures
1️⃣ S/4HANA Migration Cockpit (LTMC / Fiori App)
Required Level: Expert
They must know:
“Migrate Data Using Staging Tables”
“Migrate Data Directly from SAP System”
Migration object templates
Field mapping logic
Error handling & simulation
File formats & template structures
This separates them from legacy ECC-only consultants.
This is where it becomes senior-level.
They should know how to:
Enhance standard migration objects
Add custom fields
Modify structures
Adjust mapping logic
This is critical and often missing in traditional SAP consultants.
They must be able to:
Query source databases
Profile and validate data
Cleanse and transform datasets
Identify data anomalies before migration
Build extraction logic
This aligns more with:
ETL Developer
SAP Data Analyst
SAP Data Architect
These are important because they show foundational SAP loading knowledge.
Understanding of SAP document structures
Knowledge of batch input vs direct input
Familiarity with inbound/outbound interfaces
Comfort with WE02, BD87, SM35, etc.
Someone who knows these tools:
Understands how SAP actually posts data internally
This elevates the role into modern S/4 architecture.
They should be able to:
Read OData metadata ($metadata)
Understand entity sets & navigation properties
Identify required vs optional fields
Map complex nested structures
Interpret SOAP WSDL schemas
This is crucial in:
Cloud S/4 projects
Hybrid integrations
BTP or middleware-heavy landscapes
