HR content migrations often involve sensitive employee records, strict retention requirements, inconsistent file structures, disconnected source systems, and complex metadata. migration-center helps you move documents and related information to your ECM/DMS system for use in SAP SuccessFactors in a structured, auditable, and controlled way.
Tackle your migration for SAP SuccessFactors right from the start with our practical, field-tested checklist. It outlines essential tasks and expert tips to help you stay organized, reduce compliance risks, and plan every phase of your HR content migration.
Every SAP SuccessFactors migration project follows a clear path. With our structured six-phase model, we guide you efficiently through your transformation journey to employee document management in SAP SuccessFactors, from the initial assessment to a successful go-live.
Extract & analyze
All objects to be migrated to SAP SuccessFactors are exported from their corresponding source systems and can be throroughly reviewed in terms of structure, metadata, permissions, document types, and other properties.
Organize
The objects are then grouped into manageable sets. These sets can reflect HR document types, employee populations, legal entities, countries, retention classes, or other project-specific criteria.
Transform & map
Transformation rules are assigned to each migration set and define how source structures, metadata, document attributes, and permissions are converted into the required SAP SuccessFactors target format.
Validate
The transformed metadata of employee documents is tested and validated against defined project rules and target requirements before the actual import is started.
Correct
Potential issues are detected during the validation. Steps can then be corrected in unlimited iterations before importing the documents into SAP SuccessFactors.
Import
The transformed and validated objects are gradually imported into SAP SuccessFactors, enabling a controlled migration with traceable and compliant results.
Different HR migration scenarios require different approaches. This checklist guides you through the key factors that help determine the most suitable migration strategy for your SAP SuccessFactors project, from data quality and metadata mapping to validation, compliance, and cutover planning.
