RE: Migrating data from legacy system -

[Becker@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (Becker, Nick)]

Instead of creating a batch INV500, why not use the one that SSA has already 
created.  CIM600 "should" perform most inventory transactions accurately 
through the simple creation of a NIN record.  If this seems like a valid 
option for you, please respond and I can fill in more details.

Friends,

I got involved in migrating data from an older application into BPCS V6
(HP/Ora). 3 things are worrying me at this point:

 - open shop orders - just SO files, not history (is this all) ?
 - open PO orders - HPH/HPO files only
 - open inventory balance - for this, I'm planning to write a pgm that would
call INV500B in a batch mode, running "O" transactions for their items;

Anyone has any tips, things to avoid, experiences to share, or, is this
feasible at all ?

Thanks for your feedback,

Gilbert
