SAP Note 1052648 - Migrating transfer rules and update rules for BW7.x

Component : Transformation -

Solution : https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1052648 (SAP Service marketplace login required)

Summary :
This SAP Note guides users on migrating or converting existing transfer and update rules into transformations within the Data Warehousing Workbench (transaction RSA1). The note highlights limitations in the migration tool, which may not handle complex scenarios effectively, potentially resulting in incomplete or incorrect transformations. Users are advised to make manual adjustments post-migration for complex routines. Issues, restrictions, and the requirement for manual adjustments are detailed within the note. Additionally, related notes that address known migration errors are listed, with a recommendation to implement these if issues arise. Corrections in transformations need a re-migration or manual adjustments if the transformation contains errors.
