Rule Intro
Step 1 - What data?
- Don't take all the data for the first release - Usually there are huge amounts
of data in legacy systems - take only the most important firstly.
- Using the planning spreadsheets included with the
Microsoft CRM Data Migration Pack - they are excellent for specifying data migration
field mappings.
Step 2 - Sync or import?
- Syncing and keeping the old system live is the preferred option
- Consider writing .NET callouts - or consider Scribe Insight
