Data migration to N97 from Palm

I'm about to take delivery of an N97 and want to know how to go about getting contacts and mcalendar meetings from my Palm into the N97. From various searches i've done this is probably going to be a nightmare, so i'm not hopeful of an easy solution. Want i want is ANY method that will work, however laborious.
suggestions ??
thx

Hello Kayal,
We did this for one of our internal Customers.
As mentioned by Ginger, we took a dump of all the Productive data from SF.Com, cleansed it, populated migration templates of Cloud Solution with this data & performed manual load into the Cloud system using the Migration workbench.
Few inputs on this:
1. Data Cleansing will be a task in itself, so make sure you are completely familiar with the Cloud Data migration templates, & read the Introduction sheets & Fields sheet thoroughly before you populate data from SF.com to Cloud templates.
2. Data format has to be maintained as permitted in the templates, refer to the last sheet of the template which you sue for migration for All the fields with their data types & length permitted.
3. Make sure you download Value conversions while you do first time migration so that you can use them later when you do further Data migration, this will save time on converting values again & again while performing uploads.
The other option is to use SAP's Rapid Data Migration services, which is a tool available from SAP which allows you to create mappings between Cloud & other systems from which you want to migrate.
This I believe comes with an additional cost & you would need a proper KT from one of the SAP's experts to use this tool.
I would still suggest go by the manual load.
Hope this helps!

Migrating custom fields from Palm Desktop to Address Book

I have a 6200 contact database with 10 custom fields that I want to migrate from palm desktop to address book. I was hoping it was a simple matter of exporting the palm desktop database as a vCard, double clicking on the vCard icon on the desktop, and clicking yes to the question "do you want to import...to Address Book." But that imports the database without creating the custom fields, and instead puts all the info stored in the custom fields in the comment section for each database entry. Is there an automator action or a Apple Script (or any other way) of automatically creating these custom fields in Address Book?

I have been able to translate most of the fields from Palm Desktop over to Address Book, but the 1 field left is "Division." Address Book allows for "Company" and "Department," but not the "Division" field that is one of the default fields in Palm Desktop.
Address Book doesn't seem to be able to add a custom field to the top section of the Addess Book Templet. Is there a way of creating a custom field for "Division" that would appear at the top of the templet, just under the "Company" field?
Thanks.

Data migration tools in sap

hi,
i am newbie to s.a.p nd i got ma project related to data migration. we are taking data from legacy system to sap database. we are using a tool called cransoft. what about the future of this tool. how to plan my career in this data migration.need help from experienced persons. im a sap abap resource actually. im having practically no work using abap in this project.im very much concerned about ma career.help me out...
thank you

>>will my career depend on the tool im working in or it depends on data migration only
That is something which depends upon how much and what kind of experience you have, if you are an expert in one tool, then your career basically depends on it, but if you understand the concept and have good experience in multiple tools, then you will have broader domain.
In consulting, it is much easier to be an expert in one tool, you are not tied to one client and can find project somewhere else.
But if you are a permanent employee, then it helps to adjust your skillset as per the changing environment.
Having said that, you don't have to go after every tool in the market, try to diversify as per your interests and the market need.
Talking specifically about BODS, i have seen quiet a few clients using or planning to use it so its future looks bright, but then again, future can always change.
Thanks

Transfer Data from Palm OS to BlackBerry 10 Smartphones - US

(I am Posting this a 2nd time because I'm not sure it went through the first time; got some kind of authenication error message.)
- 1. What is the best way to transfer my PIM Organizer Data from my Palm TX to a BlackBerry Z10?
- 2. How do I obtain the standalone BlackBerry Desktop Software, latest Build of v.6.1? or even a version later than 6.1? or should I obtain v.5.0.1? or v.4.7?
I am currently a U.S. Cellular customer and when they make the BlackBerry Z10 available, I plan to switch from my Motorola feature phone to the Z10. I currently also use a Palm TX PDA (Palm OS Garnet v.5.4.9) and use Palm Desktop Software v.4.2 ( = the CD installation version of
v.4.1.4e?) on a Windows XPmachine. I could upgrade the Palm Desktop to v.6.2.2, but I haven't because v.4.2 on Windows XP is working well for me.
The support page for Z10, Transfer from iPhone & Android to BlackBerry 10 Smartphones - US ( http://us.blackberry.com/support/transferring-to-bb10-device/personal.html ) implies that it does not support direct transfer from Palm OS to BB v10; only transfers from Androids and iPhones, as well as from other BBs, are supported. I have searched your Knowledge Base and found several articles that tell me how to migrate my PIM data from Palm OS to earlier versions of BlackBerry. I then presume that once I have my data imported into the earlier version of BB Desktop I can then later import it into the BB10 Desktop software; am I correct?
Here are the Knowledge Base articles I found:
1. Article ID:
KB03050 ( http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB03050 ) - How to transfer contact information from a Palm OS device to a BlackBerry smartphone
2. Article ID:
KB04346 ( http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB04346 ) - Field mapping list for the PIM Data Migration Wizard
3. Article ID:
KB04437 - ( http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB04437 ) How to use the organizer data migration wizard
4. Article ID:
KB05421 - ( http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB05421) What is the Switch Device Wizard?
The four articles all give slightly different advice, but
Articles # 2 & 4
imply that I can export the PIM data from Palm to BlackBerry Desktop Manager
v.5.0.1
and seem to have the most simple and clear instructions. However,
Article #3
implies that I should use BB Desktop Manager no higher than
v.4.7
, and
Article #1
implies that I can use BB Desktop Software as recent as
v.6.1
and use "Method #2", which seems very long and complicated by transferring data to
Microsoft Outlook
as an intermediary step!
So I am confused as to which method to use.
Articles #2 & 4 & BB Desktop software v.5.0.1 seem the simplest, but if I need to use the latest possible version, 6.1 with Outlook as an intermediary to get superior results, then I am willing to follow this more complicated method as described in article #1. I want to use the method that will give me the best results with the lowest error rate, even it may be the most complicated way.
... Help!
P.S.
I also use
Agendus for Windows Palm Desktop Edition v.5.42( http://www.iambic.com/agendus/winpded/):
"Agendus for Windows is an application that enhances how you view your calendar, contacts, tasks and memos. It also provides intuitive tools, such as text capturing, a free time finder, voice recording, advanced search capabilities and Internet features (weather, driving directions, address lookup). All of these things help in make scheduling extremely easy and hassle free."
It can form hypertext links between the separate databases of the Palm Desktop (calendar, contacts, tasks and memos) so you can flip back & forth between the databses without having to close one before you open the other.
There's also an
Agendus for BlackBerry version (
http://www.iambic.com/agendus/blackberry/
), but was developed pre-BB 10, and I think the code is sufficiently different between the BB and Palm versions, that I don't think it is easy to transfer data between them since the BlackBerry version synchronizes with Agendus for Windows Outlook Edition ( http://www.iambic.com/agendus/winoued/).
When I transfer my PIM data from my Palm to a BB-Z10, will I be able to keep those active hypertext links in Agendus in the transfer and still have them work?
P.P.S.
I also have
Palm Desktop by Access v.6.2.2 ( http://kb.hpwebos.com/wps/portal/kb/na/tungsten/tx/unlocked/solutions/article/32859_en.html )installed on a Windows 7 machine, but I find that v.4.2 w/ the Windows XP machine tends to work better. However, I am willing to use whatever combination of Palm Desktop version together with Windows OS version that will get me the best and most accurate results. Palm Desktop v.6.2.2 also has an extension called Palm Conduit Switcher Application (OutlookSwitcher.exe v.1.3.0, which is accessible through Start > Palm > PIM conduit sync > Sync with Outlook) which supposedly will change my Palm handheld to sync w/ Outlook instead of with Palm Desktop; would that accomplish the same thing as Article #1 (ID: KB03050 > Method 2 > Tasks 1,2 & 3) and maybe be easier or do it better? But it would seem that the KB03050 method would leave my Palm Desktop intact, whereas the OutlookSwitcher application could delete my Palm Desktop in a process that would convert my data permanently to Outlook; am I correct? An earlier version of OutlookSwitcher.exe also is included in Palm Desktop v.4.2.
There are so many questions and options for me, I don't know which way to go! If you and your colleagues don't know the best way either, then I will most likely follow the advice in KB03050 in conjunction w/ upgrading my Palm Desktop to 6.2.2 on my Windows XP machine, since I would have the most control over datafield mapping, and the extra work spent doing that may pay off with a smaller error rate after the transfer, which gets me back to my second question at the top of this article: How can I obtain a copy of the latest Build of BlackBerry Desktop Software v.6.1 as a stand-alone application into which I can transfer all my PIM Data first, *before* I install & syncronize the new BB10 phone? Or should I use a version later than 6.1?
Sorry for this being so long and convoluted, but after going through all the permutations and combinations, it should be obvious to you that I now need the support of someone more expert and experienced in this before I do anything else. Thanks!

Hey telemarkdoc,
Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
Thanks for the question.
Currently you can not transfer data from a Palm smartphone to a BlackBerry 10 smartphone through BlackBerry Link. Also previous versions of BlackBerry Desktop Software will not work with BlackBerry 10 smartphones.
The only way this could work is that you transfer the information from the Palm software to Microsoft Outlook and then BlackBerry Link can synchronize the contacts and calendar information to the BlackBerry Z10.
I hope this helps.
Let me know if you have any more questions.
Cheers.

Migrate from Palm Desktop/OS 10.4 to OS 10.6 & new iPod Touch?

I'm very dependent on Palm Desktop 4.2.2 to keep my life organized. My old Palm died long ago, but I like Palm Desktop more than any other alternatives I've seen. I've ordered a new iPod Touch. I'm pretty sure that, to use it with my iBook (running OS 10.4.11) that I'll need to upgrade to Leopard or Snow Leopard if I want to share info with the Touch.
Moreover, I think I'll need to sever any ties to my beloved Palm Desktop: I don't think it's compatible with OS 10.6. I've explored similar posts, but haven't found an answer I could use or understand. So if someone knows of an online description of migrating from Palm Desktop to either the equivalent Apple products or to Google, I'd appreciate the URL.
The main feature I like in Palm Desktop is the ability to create links between all the modules. For example, I can set an appointment with a doctor, then attach the doctor's contact information and attach a memo that has a list of questions and directions to the new office. My existing database is cross-linked between all these types of info.
Is there any way I can retain these cross links when I migrate? Do any of the Apple PIM programs let you create these kinds of cross references with new information? Does Google or some other software let you do this better?
From what I've read, it sounds like getting the information exported into a format that can be imported to a new program isn't easy. BTW, I'll also be migrating from Eudora to either Mail, Thunderbird mail, or some third party equivalent. I won't use any flavor of Outlook. Is there something about MobileMe that would make this migration easier?
Can you tell that I'm operating on the very fringe of what I'm technically able to understand? I've stuck with Palm Desktop for 8 years. I'd appreciate any guidance anyone could provide -- in an easy, step-by-step way. Forgive me if this information exists elsewhere. Directions to that info also would be appreciated.
Quickly exceeding my technological Comfort Zone,
Marganne

The Palm Desktop works fine with 10.6.6 (and even Hotsyncs to Palm, though I gather this is irrelevant to you). However it is dependent on Rosetta, so (avoiding speculation to conform with the terms of this Forum) were Rosetta to be removed in a future system upgrade the Palm Desktop would be inoperable.
You're not going to be able to salvage the contents and use them in a linked fashion in the same way. It's possible to salvage the contents, though it's going to entail some work.
MEMOS - Evernote (basic version free) is a good replacement and extremely flexible: its contents can be synced to an iPhone or iPod Touch. The contents of the Palm Memos can be imported into Evernote using the Palm Desktop Memos Importer for Evernote (free)
CALENDARS - Palm Desktop menu File>Export and export Date Book as vCal. In iCal File>Import and import the vCal file into iCal - it will appear as an 'On My Mac' calendar. Use File>Export>Export to export this as an .ics file. Create a new calendar under your MobileMe login name (I'm assuming you've upgraded to the new MobileMe calendar) and import the .ics file into this. Delete the previously imported calendar. (If you don't want to use MobileMe just leave the imported calendar where it is.)
You can't separate the Palm categories and you will need to go through it making any necessary adjustments.
It's worth considering BusyCal, which is like 'Pro' version of iCal with much better handling of ToDos and many extra facilities. On an iPod Touch it's well worth considering Week Cal which, though I've not tried it, appears to be a much better calendar than the rather basic built-in one.
TASKS - you will have to enter these manually, one at a time - it doesn't appear to be possible to import them into iCal. iCal won't handle repeating ToDos - BusyCal will. They also make BusyToDo for iOS which reads the ToDos from the MobileMe calendar and handles them separately and much better.
ADDRESSES - you can export these as a vCard - select all first - and import that into Address Book (watch out for duplicates if you are already using Address Book).
It's not clear if you have MobileMe: if you don't want to sync between computers or iPhone/iPod Touch you don't need it, but if you do it's the best way - Google and Yahoo have issues. However you should be able to sync to an iPod Touch using iTunes, though as I don't have this device I don't know whether there are any downsides.

Migrating from Palm - roadmap?

Can anyone point me to a roadmap for migrating from Palm to iPhone, in this forum or on the web? It would be really useful as a sticky or FAQ IMHO.
Of course I can do the easy bit of calendar and contacts (did it already for my wife when she transferred), but now that I have an iPhone too I need to deal with the to dos and notes, which in my case are a considerable amount of data - my wife had none to speak of so it wasn't an issue.
The todos in Mail seem to work kind of OK, but I really don't like the Notes being in the inbox. And I have no idea how to get them from the Palm into Mail, even I wanted to.
What other software is available to handle Todos and Notes on the iPhone/Mac OS X?
TIA

Exporting Palm Calendar (Date Book): you should have in the Export dialog box the option of changing the export format from "Palm Desktop" to "vCal".
vCal (.vcs) files will import into iCal. You can also bring them into Entourage (not through the Import dialog box, but by dragging the .vcs file onto the Entourage icon in the dock).
You will almost certainly lose category information, if you were using any.
Exporting Palm Addresses: choose the vCard format, which Apple's Address Book will recognise (ditto Entourage if you take that option). But I see you've succeeded with that part.
Exporting Tasks: this gets tricky as Apple doesn't have a stand alone tasks or to do app and the to do function in iCal is a bit underwhelming. You'll be able to export Palm Tasks in "Tab & Return" format, which means you could open them in a word processing or spreadsheet program. I doubt you'd be able to get them into iCal with any ease. You may have better luck importing tasks into Entourage, which does have a proper Tasks function, but that's not something I've tried to do.
Exporting Notes/Memo: as with Tasks, your option is using the "Tab & Return" format. You may need a 3rd-party notes program if you don't want to use Entourage Notes.

Migrating from palm desktop 4.2 for windows to ical

Hi,
I am attempting to migrate my calendar and task information from my palm desktop 4.2 software on a windows xp machine to my brand-spankin' new iMac. The calendar file export type doesn't import into ical. I'm not even sure which application the task(to-do list) and memo(notes) data from palm desktop would be most appropriate to import into on the iMac, but I would like to migrate that data, too.
I did successfully migrate my contacts info from Palm Desktop into the Address Book on my IMac. Hooray!
any help is appreciated.
thanks.

Data Migration from SAP r/3 to SAP R/3

Hi all,
What is the best method to migrate data from one verison of SAP to another verison of SAP ECC say from SAP 3.1 to SAP ECC 6.0?
This is for all SAP modules including sd, mm, pp, fi, co master and transaction data. I know there are number of technologies to load the data such as LSMW, IDOC, ALE, DI, etc but what is the best way to extract all data feeds to be loaded back into SAP.
Thanks in advace.

Data migration from legacy system to SAP

hi all,
could you please post some docs on migration from legacy system to SAP system., also the problems faced while migration and best practices in data migration
regards
sridharan

Hi ,
I require few details from you.
1. What ETL tool you are using, If Informatica, it already have PowerConnect to connect to SAP. So you can create source and Target Structure and also you can use RFC's to send data to R/3. Else, for other ETL tools, can you prepare RFC's or any other way to send data to R/3. let me know the tool.
2. Does R/3 contains the master data tables? If yes, then try to use LSMW for Mass upload of data to tables.
If your client don't want to use either of these options please elaborate, what is the case.

Data Migration from 11i to R12 Global - Open POs,lines, receipts & on hand upload, Is it possible to do the onhand qty upload with over riding of all receipts which uploaded against Open PO lines?

Hi Friends,
We are in a phase of data migration from 11i to R12
I was discussed with client & they wants extraction of all open POs which was generated after 01 Jan 2014 to till date in 11i.
Condition for open POs is PO qty-received qty=>0
critical Example for open PO is :PO no: 10 has 4 lines, 3lines full qty has been received & for 1 line partial qty(say 50 out of 100) received.
in this case he wants in R12 uploading as PO no:10 should entered as open PO with all 4lines & 3 lines complete receipt should be done, for 4th line partial qty i.e 50 should be received.
the question is if we upload on hand qty first, then open POs & receipts, it will increase the onhand qty in new system(mismatch of on hand qty's 11i to R12)
Is it possible to do the onhand qty upload with over riding of all receipts which uploaded against Open PO lines.
Or Please advice best solution.
Thanks & Regards

Hello,
for migration into CRM I would suggest the 'XIF-Interfaces'; these are interfaces provided in CRM for connection to external systems. I'm not sure if this will cover all objects mentioned above, but at least some of them should exist.
Some information about existing interfaces can be found in the integration repository under http://ifr.sap.com/index.html; from the start screen first select 'Enter the repository' and then have a look under 'generic components' and 'SAP CRM'.

Hi Ram,
Use Transaction Code EMIGALL. It will ask for company code. By default Company Code is SAP. If you entered with the SAP you will get all the objects.Then goto menu IS-U Migration-->User Handbook. It will give you details Idea.
Also Check the following Procedure
You can find detailed documentation of EMIGALL in SAP itself. Use Transaction EQ81 to display it. It provides all the concepts and procedures to work with EMIGALL.
Here are some points about EMIGALL :
1. It Migrates data Business Object wise
2. It uses Direct Input Technique
3. It has more than 100 objects of IS-U
and the steps for implementation goes like this:
1)You have to create a user specially for migration which will have all the authorizations related to migration workbench, BASIS and IS-U
2)You have to create your own company in EMIGALL. There is a default company called SAP.
3)Company SAP contains all the Business Objects
4)You have to figure out what business objects u need and then u have to copy those business objects to ur company from Standard Company SAP
5)Each objects contains more than one structure and each structure can contain more than one fields. The relation goes like this
Object ---> Structure ---> Field
6)You have to define field rules for each required field of the object. You have to mark "Not required" for fields u don't need
7)After field rules for a given object is set u have to generate load report i.e. actual Direct Input Program which will migrate data. This program is generated on basis of field rules set by u.
8)After the load report is generated u have to prepare an input file (import File) for migration. The import file should be according to structure provided by SAP and must be in binary format. SAP Provides the structure of file according to your configurations. You have to write ur own Data conversion program(in any language) for this task.
9)You take import file as input and migrate the data using generated load program
10)Finally u can check the Migration Statistics and Error Log
Thanks and Regards,

I had a data migration done from old iMac to new iMac, how do I use that file to find my old email contacts, Safari bookmarks, etc ?

I recently had a data migration from old iMac to new iMac 11.2
How do I use that data file to get old email contacts, Safari bookmarks, etc ?

FireWire cables are dirt cheap and that's how you should be doing the migration. You might have to start over, wiping the new machine's HD, and restoring the software as described in the Everything Mac manual that came with it. See Best Practices and Setup new Mac for more details.

Corrupted data after updating from Palm 4.1 to 6.2.2

I am about to go from a Treo 680 to a palm pre and decided to download
the 6.2.2 version of the palm software. This is the version I need to use the 3rd party software
to sinc my new palm pre and my lap top. my data is corrupted,,any suggestions,,,
Post relates to: Treo 680 (AT&T)

Corrupted where; on the device or in Palm DT 6.2.2? If the data is corrupted on the Treo then you can download Pimlico DB Fixit to find and correct (free to locate problems, pay to fix issues) any corruptions. Get the software from Pimlico.com. If the data is only corrupted within Palm DT (which is not usually not the case) you can create a new user, then export you data from the original user to a file, and then import the data from the file to the new user under File, Import / Export. This has to be repeated for all PIM data items, Contacts, Datebook, Tasks, and Memos. You must also select a range of all so all items are backed up.
