The Data Transfer Workbench (or DX Workbench, transaction SXDA) is an integrated
SAP tool that supports data transfer and analysis. It does not have the built-in features for mapping for source structures to target structures, but it will allow you to integrate Legacy System Migration Workbench (LSMW) objects as processing tasks within a run definition. The DX workbench ha s many features for creating test data and performing data migrations - for example, logging of data migratio n runs. However, if you need to map or convert data, you should use the LSMW. Or, you ca n integrate your LSMW objects as task within a more user-friendly data migration run, in whi ch the LSMW project steps "Read data", "Convert data," and "Start IDoc processing" are autom ated and use the features of both tools. If you donot need logging and automated data migration runs, you can perform your data migration without the DX Workbench.
