Experts,

we have 3.X Data flow and i have to migrate it to 7. Is there a special way to do it ? Or simply right click at data source and click migrate, and it will take care automatically?

Do i have to do additional things in order to get those start/End routine or Update rule to be work at right place.

Thanks

Please search the forum before posting a thread

Hi ,

Infosource migration :

For data flow migration you can create a transformation using update rules or transfer rules.The corresponding 3.x InfoSource is converted into new InfoSource and allows to migrate existing objects to the new transformation concept after upgrade.

the system retains the update rules, 3.x InfoSources, and transfer rules.

To ensure that the loading process is performed using the transformation and not the update rules or transfer rules, data has to be loaded using a data transfer process.

Transformation creation :

1. Routines are copied straight to the global part.The routine for the converted rule is called from the routine for the transformation ,Using a PERFORM.If your routine is dynamic you should check it by performing a before-after

check because the fields of the source structure are removed during migration cannot checked by system.If fields that are used in the routine and not filled error occurs.

2. Return tables in routines cannot be converted

3. Inversion routines in transfer rules are not converted ,you have to recreate these in the transformation.

Then you can create DTP as per your requirement.

Hope you will find it helpful.

Hi,

By clicking on migrate on the datasource, only the datasource and the dependent objects get migrated.

The higher level update rules do not get migrated automatically. You have to do it manually.
