Summary :
This SAP Note provides essential guidelines for deploying the Legacy System Migration Workbench (LSMW) with legacy files, particularly in Unicode environments. It details methods to manage end of records including options for text files with varying line breaks dependent on OS, and fixed record lengths typically utilised in data export from mainframe systems. Handling file structures, the note discusses table and file management approaches and stresses the appropriate uses of separators to avoid data misinterpretation. Additionally, it outlines SAP’s character encoding for file processing including ASCII and various UTF standards, very crucial for ensuring data integrity across different systems.
