1818447 - Fixed Asset Migration Tab Missing

Symptom

After GoLive you notice that the Migration tab of Fixed Assets can't be accessed anymore in your productive system.

Environment

 SAP Business ByDesign

Reproducing the Issue

  1. In the Fixed Assets work center, navigate to the Fixed Assets view.
  2. Search for all Fixed Assets for which a Yes is marked in the Migrated Asset column.
  3. Select one of them and press Edit.
  4. You can only see the options General, Master Data and Values.
  5. Also, when opening the Fixed Asset, the Migration tab is missing.

Cause

In general, the Migration tab is not visible after the system is Live.
If this tab was still enabled, you could edit the previously migrated data: you could reverse migration transactions via the Reverse Migration button, for instance. It is not advised to make any migration related changes after GoLive as this could cause data inconsistencies.

Resolution

Should you still need to access the Migration tab in fixed assets you can create a change project in your live system:

  1. Create a New Change Project in the Business Configuration work center and open its Activity List.
  2. In the new change project navigate to the Integrate and Extend phase activity called Migration of Accounting Transaction Data and select Add To Project.
  3. Close this activity.
  4. Merge the change project.

Now, this activity's status is Open. Therefore, the Migration tab will be available in the Fixed Assets.
