Fixed Assets Conversion Summary
During the conversion, MFG/UTIL dumps legacy Fixed Assets data to a file. You specify the name and location of this file in the MFG/CONV environment prompts. Use this dump file and the Fixed Assets Migration Utility (32.25.2) to migrate legacy data to the enhanced Fixed Assets module. This utility lets you perform the following functions:
• Migrate legacy data from the fixed-assets dump file to the enhanced Fixed Assets module
• Resolve any discrepancies between the legacy data model and the enhanced model
You can use the Fixed Assets Migration Report (32.25.3) to generate a report summarizing the migrated fixed-asset data. The report shows the migrated data from the legacy system and the newly mapped data for the new system.
You can choose to include books, methods, locations, classes, and exceptions in the report.
