Data migration
Data migration is the process of moving, copying, and restructuring data from an existing system to the ERP system. Migration
is critical to implementation success and requires significant planning. Unfortunately, since migration is one of the final
activities before the production phase, it often receives insufficient attention. The following steps can structure migration
planning:
- Identify data to migrate
- Determine migration timing
- Generate data templates[clarification needed]
- Freeze the toolset
- Decide on migration-related setups[clarification needed]
- Define data archiving policies and procedures
