Data Conversion

The Data Conversion program is a wizard that guides you through the process of converting your data from SYSPRO 7 Update 1 to SYSPRO 8.

Exploring

It includes the following:

  • Data conversion:

    Data that previously resided in ISAM files (\Work and \Data folders) are loaded into SQL tables.

  • Tables and columns:

    New tables and new or changed columns in existing tables are required for SYSPRO 8 functionality.

  • Obsolete and unused tables:

    Obsolete and unused tables are removed from the database.

  • SQL connection and authentication:

    The information required to access SQL was previously stored in various ISAM files (e.g. ADMSYS). In SYSPRO 8, these have been relocated to the IMPACT.INI file which includes the following four new mandatory entries:

    Entry Description

    SQLADM

    This encrypted entry contains the admin SQL Server login information.

    SQLSTD

    This encrypted entry contains the standard SQL Server login information.

    SQLBLK

    This is the folder used by Bulk Insert operations.

    This must be accessible by both SYSPRO and SQL.

    SQLCPG

    This is the code page applied during Bulk Insert operations.

  • SQL Connection String:

    SYSPRO 8 simplifies and optimizes the system to only use a SQL Connection String - defined by the SQL Server name entry in the IMPACT.INI file.

    Entry Description
    SQLSSN This entry contains the SQL Server Name (i.e. the name of the SQL Server instance).
  • When you login to SYSPRO 8 the system inspects entries in the IMPACT.INI file to determine whether a migration to SYSPRO 8 is required.
  • If the conversion failed on a previous run, then the databases are checked and the system indicates the point from which the conversion must restart.

Starting

  • Before running the conversion, you must ensure that all SYSPRO 7 Update 1 services are stopped.
  • Your custom form formats must be using the + tables (verified by the IMPCFM= entry in the IMPACT.INI file .
  • Your version of SQL cannot be prior to 2008 R2.
  • The system database must be case-sensitive.
  • The database compatibility level cannot be less than 100 (i.e. not before SQL 2008).
  • The conversion program stops processing and returns to the login screen if any of the following are found to be true:

    • The custom form format is not using the + tables.

    • Your version of SQL is prior to 2008 R2.

    • The system database is case-insensitive.

    • The compatibility level of the database is less than 100 (i.e. prior to SQL 2008).

Solving

The custom form format is not using the + tables. This is verified in the IMPACT.INI file by the following blank entry: IMPCFM=.

Your version of SQL is prior to 2008 R2.

The message is displayed in the Database Connection program. The reason for not exiting here is that you may have connected to an invalid instance of SQL (e.g. old test server).

The system database is case-insensitive.

The compatibility level of the database is less than 100 (i.e. prior to SQL 2008).

When entering information on the SQL Connection Information screen, the server name mustn't contain any spaces.

If using SQL Server authentication, the standard user name cannot contain any spaces.

If using SQL Server authentication, the admin user name cannot contain any spaces.

This message is displayed in the Data Conversion program if the SQL connection using the admin user or windows authentication fails.

You are returned to the SQL Connection Information screen to capture the correct information.

This message is displayed if you don't have sufficient SQL login permissions. You are returned to the SQL Connection Information screen.

This message is displayed in the Data Conversion program if none of the company databases have an AdmVersion table, then it is assumed they are prior to SYSPRO 7 Update 1.

Because the conversion only works on databases from SYSPRO 7 Update 1, this error is displayed and the conversion exits.

For security reasons, if default values exist in either password field on the SQL Connection Information screen of the Data Conversion wizard, selecting the Show passwords button will remove the password mask as well as the actual password.

However, if you have entered the password manually in this screen then the Show passwords button will remove the password mask and reveal the password you have just entered.

During the Data Conversion process (on the SQL Connection Information screen) you are required to enter your SQL login details.

By default, the passwords on this screen are hidden/masked (i.e. shown as asterisks). Unfortunately, there is a limitation that if the password is masked, it does not correctly accept a pasted entry.

Therefore, if you want to paste an entry you must first show the password by enabling the Show passwords option (located at the bottom of the screen).

Using

Phase Process

System database

  1. If the database being converted is not on the latest SYSPRO 7 Update 1 version (currently 7.0.1.0007) then it is updated to this version.
  2. The new tables for SYSPRO 8 are created in the database.

  3. Using Bulk Insert commands, the data is inserted into the new SYSPRO 8 tables from the ISAM files.

    Once the data conversion has been verified, each ISAM file is moved to ISAM_ARCHIVE.

  4. Audit data is then optionally converted to SQL.
  5. Existing tables and columns are updated as required for SYSPRO 8.
  6. Espresso is updated as required.
  7. Data dictionary tables are populated with the latest table and column information.

Company database

  1. All foreign keys are dropped to prevent issues when changing keys and indexes on existing tables.
  2. If the database being converted is not on the latest SYSPRO 7 Update 1 version (currently 7.0.1.0007), then it is updated to this version.
  3. The new tables for SYSPRO 8 are created in the database.

  4. Using Bulk Insert commands, the data is inserted into the tables from the ISAM files.

    Once the data conversion has been verified, each ISAM file is moved to ISAM_ARCHIVE.

  5. Archived data (i.e. Lots, ECC Bill of Materials, sales orders and jobs) is then optionally converted to SQL.
  6. Audit data is then optionally converted to SQL.
  7. Existing tables and columns are updated as required.
  8. Foreign keys are rebuilt.

Conversion completion

The system notifies you once all databases which can be converted are converted.

An audit of the conversion SYSPRO8_Conversion_Log.txt) is created in the \Base\Settings folder and details the tables converted, as well as any warnings and errors which may have occurred.

Once completed, the system is ready for you to login to SYSPRO 8.
  • Once you have installed SYSPRO 8 and migrated your data, the next step is to review and action the post installation checks.

Referencing

The SQL Connection Information screen displays your SQL connection information. This defaults to the entries indicated below, but can be modified if required:

Field Default values

Server name

If your SYSPRO 7 Update 1 configuration was based on a SQL connection string, then this entry defaults to the previous SQL Server name

Authentication Method

Defaults are derived from the SYSPRO 7 Update 1IMPACT.INI file

Administration SQL user

Login information defaults to the entries held against the AdmSystemControl table (derived from the SQL Server administrative information entry against the Database tab of the System Setup program).

Standard SQL user

Login information defaults to the entries defined against the ADMIN operator in SYSPRO 7 Update 1

Bulk Insert Information

The Code page and Temp folder fields default to the entries held against the AdmSystemControltable (derived from the SQL Server administrative information entry against the Database tab of the System Setup program).

  1. Once all fields have been entered and you select the Next button.

    A connection to SQL is attempted and the entries are validated using the admin user or windows authentication. If this fails, then the relevant message is displayed and you are taken back to this screen to capture the correct information.

    Field Description

    Server name

    • The Server name must be the name of the SQL Server Instance
    • This name cannot contain any spaces

    Authentication Method

    If you select to use SQL Server authentication, the following rules apply:

    User type Rules

    Administration SQL user

    The user entered here must have the following SQL permissions assigned to it:

    • db_creator

      This is used to create and drop entities, such as databases, tables, columns, etc.

    • bulkadmin

      This is used to issue BULK INSERT statements.

    • securityadmin

      This is used to give database-level permissions as and when needed.

    • processadmin

      This is used to end SQL processes running on the server using the View Users program.

    • db_owner

      This needs to be set for both system-wide and company databases.

    The user cannot be the same account as the Standard SQL user and the User name cannot contain any spaces.

    Standard SQL user

    The user entered here must have the following SQL permissions enabled for both system-wide and company databases:

    • db_datareader
    • db_datawriter

    The user cannot be the same account as the Administrative SQL user and the User name cannot contain any spaces.

  2. Once the connection is successful, the information captured here is encrypted and written back to the IMPACT.INI file and the process continues to the next phase.

After connecting to SQL, the conversion cycles through the SYSPRO system database, as well as all company-specific databases defined in the SysproAdmin table, to verify what requires converting.

Field Description

System database

  • If the table containing the company/database cross reference is not called SysproAdmin, then it is renamed to SysproAdmin.

    In previous versions the name of this table was defined in the IMPACT.INI file, under the SQLTBN= entry and was user-defined.

    In SYSPRO 8 this table name is mandatory.

  • If the system database version (in AdmSysVersion) is set to 8.0.0.xxxx (where xxxx is the minor upgrade version) then the data has been converted.
  • If the conversion of the system database fails before the conversion completes, then the update status is checked in order to establish the restart point.

Company database

  • The databases are read from the SysproAdmin table that resides in the system database.
  • The databases must exist in the same SQL instance.
  • The company control file (ISAM file ADMCTL in the \Work folder) must exist for the company being converted.
  • The database version (in AdmVersion) must be set to 7.0.1.xxxx (where xxxx is the minor upgrade version).

  • If the same database is defined against two or more companies, then it is assumed to be associated against the first company (alphabetically).

    Subsequent companies associated with the database are ignored.
  • The database collation must be case-sensitive.
  • The database must have a supported compatibility level

Database statuses

Once the verification is complete, a list of all the databases is shown (including those which have been converted or cannot be converted). The list will show the company id, name, database, database version and status.

Possible statuses include:

Status Description

Converted

The database has been converted to SYSPRO 8.

Unconverted

The database is in SYSPRO 7 Update 1 format and requires conversion.

Database needs converting to SYSPRO 7 Update 1

The database is a version prior to SYSPRO 7 Update 1 and will be ignored as this conversion will only convert from Update 1 upwards.

ISAM data needs moving to SQL

This status indicates that the conversion failed and will restart at this point.

New tables and columns need adding

This status indicates that the conversion failed and will restart at this point.

Espresso needs converting

This status indicates that the conversion failed and will restart at this point.

Database does not exist

The database defined in the SysproAdmin table does not exist in the SQL instance.

Database defined against multiple companies

Multiple entries in the SysproAdmin table (system-wide database) point to the same database.

In this case, the database will be converted against the first company ID.

????ADMCTL control file missing

???? is the company ID

The conversion could not find the SYSPRO 7 Update 1 ISAM control file (DAT/IDX) in the \Work folder and therefore cannot convert to SYSPRO 8.

The control file must reside in the \Work folder.

Conversion Options

From the Conversion of Databases to SYSPRO 8 Format screen, you have the option to convert Audit and Archive data.

To do this, select the Conversion Options button.

If you want to convert your Audit data, ensure that you enable this option during this stage of the conversion process, as you cannot convert this data at a later stage.

Archive data will not be available in SYSPRO 8 until it has been converted, however you can choose to convert this data at a later stage in SYSPRO 8 using the Archiving Migration program.

Data Retention Options

  • System change audit (system database)
  • Operator amendment journals (system database)
  • Job logging (company database)
  • Company setup amendment journals (company database)
  • B2B XML history details (company database)

Archive Conversion Options

  • Lots
  • Sales
  • Orders
  • Jobs
  • ECC Structures

The following is a list of all the ISAM files which are converted into the system database.

The Comment column may contain any of the following:

  • Archived:

    These files are only archived.

  • String:

    The conversion process loads the contents of these files into SQL as a single string (blob) and not individual columns.

  • Optional:

    You can optionally choose to convert the data for these files.

  • Sequential:

    These files don't contain an index and can be maintained manually without becoming corrupt.
