Typically these are uploaded via journal entries using either LSMW or a custom program you've written, with the data in an Excel file (saved as txt).
The question you need the business to answer is how far back they need to have this data in SAP. Usually I see that the business wants to be able to report their current fiscal year in SAP, so at the least you need to load the closing balances of the previous year (ie the opening balances for this year, Period 0).
The simplest way to do this is to load the opening balances for all their B/S accounts - the data from Legacy - into Period 12 of the prior year and then execute the Year End balance carry forward transaction (FAGLGVTR) to force the balances to roll into the current year period 0. That gets you to the start of the current fiscal year. If you are not currently in period 1, then you will also need to load period by period the activity of each period for both B/S and I/S accounts.
