Hi All,What are the file size limitations for data migrations? For example, when migrating text and JSON files, are there any specific constraints? Additionally, is there a character code specification and delimiter specification involved ?

I’ve created an Excel migration job to modify values on a Sales Price List, but it seems that each time that I execute the job, a new record is created instead of updating the record that already exists. For this particular migration job, there will never be a requirement to insert new values, only update existing.   Any ideas what I am doing incorrectly? Environment: 23R1 SU 1 Source Mapping:Method List Attributes: 

Hi,We are looking into different options for migrating data from external systems into IFS Cloud. It is my understanding that the recommended approach is to use the Data Migration Manager component to import data into IFS Cloud via flat file.We are expecting to import a huge number of records into IFS and we are looking for an alternative to flat file import method due to performance impact. Are there any other options for migration? (e.g. external database connection) If not, are there plans on improving this feature in the near future?Any insights will help. Thanks!

Hi All,We are Migrating Employee Records using DMM. As per requirement we would need Person ID to be generated automatically if person id in legacy data is blank, in case if any person id provided in legacy record, then DMM shouldn’t generate the ID. We have enabled Auto Generation feature for Person ID column in PERSON_INFO target table. It is working fine where Person ID is blank in legacy records, but it do generate ID for records where Person ID is not blank. Any feature available to restrict generating the ID incase legacy record have any value passedThanks,Nishith

The customer has lots of data in some tables - mostly quality assurance related, traceability - and keeps only last 3 months of data in the main tables.They have already setup archiving which works okay, except it started to get too slow mainly because it takes the rows in the head table one by one.As it does not put a big load on the storage we tried find some option to do it parallel, meaning several archiving jobs (orders) could run for these tables with different filters at the same time.But we found that the jobs are executed one after another:Is there a way to make them run parallel? 

Has anyone successfully used the SYNCDETAILS Rule in a Migration Job? I made the header fields in my file the same what shows in to “Column Name” in File Mapping but when I unpack the file I get Column “xxxx” does not exist.  I am using a csv with double quotes as the Column Embrace and would expect this to apply to the headings as well.

We’ve just deployed our first IFS Cloud environment and we’re struggling with some features… One of them is regarding Data Migration Jobs. Do you guys know which exact permission (projection) a user must have in order to be able to create new Data Migration Jobs? He’s already been granted Update Allowed permission in Authorized Users screen, but I believe that will work just for the existing jobs already granted for his account, right?Hope you can help me with this.

Hello,A repopulate can be accomplished by calling the DataSourcePopulate method on a window or a child table. Doing this on a form window will repopulate the window, and add newly created records and remove deleted records from the record selector. For table windows and child tables new records will be added and deleted records will be removed from the table.Forms can be refreshed by calling the DataSourceRefresh method. This will re-fetch only the record currently selected in the record selector, with its objid. DataSourceRefresh can be called on table windows but that will do a repopulate rather than a refresh.How do I use this in visual studio?
