Data Migration FAQ
Atlas 6.0 | A Whole New Experience.
What happens when we have huge volumes to upload?
You must break elements up into logical groups, use the timing guide to determine a suitable time/volume setting.
What happens when I have complicated multi table joins in AX?
You must load the data in a set sequence. Use the batch feature to daisy-chain templates in the order AX expects them to be used.
I can earn more via an internal system, why would i choose atlas?
Using atlas can save 1,800+ consultancy hours to build migration scripts in AX, only to subsequently rewrite them.
Would I ever face an issue with speed or performance?
The timing guide helps you determine how much time an activity will consume. Always ensure your data is “clean” to avoid validation corrections during the data load.
