QM Open Notice
QM Open Notice is a blog post series about topics, which can be useful when working with Quality Management.
Overview
Current blog post is about the existing migration objects in QM area and their reference to the used function modules to migrate the data.
In detail
For all ‘Available Migration Objects’, check SAP Help at:
- S/4HANA Cloud (specific link in the table below)
- S/4HANA (On-Premise) (no specific link in the table below, as there are more migration approaches, useful blog:

Known problem & solution
The SAP S/4HANA Data Migration content (migration templates and predefined mapping rules) is based on the pre-configured SAP S/4HANA Cloud business processes.
Therefore, it might comes to bottlenecks when using the transaction LTMC / LTMOM in On-Premise systems, as the Cloud product is a newly developed solution and not a copy of the On-Premise functions.
For more details read following KBAs:
- 2515151 – SAP S/4HANA Migration Cockpit: Migration objects or fields which you want to migrate cannot be found
- 2683477 – Why are fields on screens not available in the migration content? (SAP S/4HANA Migration Cockpit)
In specific circumstances there is the possibility to extend the pre-delivered migration templates with LTMOM, see KBA:
2576565 – SAP S/4HANA Data Migration – On Premise
However, the modified object falls outside of the scope of SAP Support. See also SAP Note:
2481235 – SAP S/4HANA Migration Cockpit (on premise) – restrictions and extensibility of pre-delivered migration objects
