For each existing daybook with a non-blank code, the conversion creates a daybook record in the shared set of the domain to which the daybook belongs.

The converted daybook is assigned a daybook type of Journal Entry, a layer code of Official, and a control type of Operational. If the source daybook has not reached its expiration date, the daybook is marked as active in the converted database. Otherwise, the daybook is marked as inactive. The conversion ensures that the associated NRM sequence for active daybooks uses the new format of YYYY<daybook code>000000001.

Additional active default daybooks are created in each shared set with the type of Journal. The daybooks are the daybooks prompted for in the pre-conversion Conversion Parameters Utility.
