Legacy System Migration Workbench (LSMW)

SAP provides you with the Legacy System Migration Workbench (LSMW), a tool that supports the one-time or
periodic transfer of data from a variety of sources without any programming. You define the mapping and the rules
for the changeover and the LSMW then uses this definition to generate an ABAP data transfer program. This gives
you considerable support during the migration.
