The consultant will be responsible for controlling, validating, transforming, and integrating accounting data into SAP using the Canal + Universal Accounting Data Migration Engine (MRU), working closely with the project team and Group Finance.

2.Your Role

2.1Data Assessment & Quality Review

Review and challenge source data extractions (Trial Balance, Open Items, Fixed Assets) by performing the usual integrity checks (checking that the sum of the auxiliary/non auxiliary open items is indeed equal to the general balance of the reconciliation G/L account, checking that the MRU does not create a VAT impact if we decide to take over the VAT manually or does not take over a duplicate VAT impact depending on the data migration strategy, checking that the auxiliary files for taking over fixed assets do indeed loop back to the trial balance, etc.).

Ensure compliance with the Canal + Universal Accounting Data Migration Engine (MRU) templates and data specifications.

Ensure compliance with rules of good accounting orthodoxy.

Identify quality issues, inconsistencies, missing data.

2.2Chart of Accounts Mapping & Finance Alignment

Lead the mapping between local charts of accounts and the Group chart of accounts.

Establish and support the Data Migration Strategy Matrix that carry the data migration rules per G/L accounts (Balance vs Open Items vs Not Migrated).

Make sure that the settings/key attributes of SAP G/L accounts respect the operation of the G/L accounts in the Legacy system. And vice versa. And if differences, they have to be well documented and validated by CANAL+. For instance, a target G/L non-auxiliary account for source auxiliary operations.

Coordinate decisions with Group Finance and document all mapping rules and exceptions.
