Add-on Migration Considerations 

  1. Budgets 
  1. Fixed Assets 

Data Migration Assumptions 
 
1.Customer does the data extraction, consolidation, and cleansing of legacy data and fills the templates provided. The implementer expects that the customer side team will follow the guidelines described in the data template provided. 

2.Customer is required to provide the data in the format submitted by implementer for transactional and master data migration. Upon request from customer, Implementer would help extract the data and validate with customer at an additional cost. 

3.Historical data migration is not included in the scope.  

4.Customer agrees to conduct the necessary data reconciliation, validation, and verification before it sends the filled-in data template to the project manager of the implementer for open data migration.  

5. Implementer only migrates the data of the above-mentioned data Migration List. If any change, the need for the same will be considered through a change request and the minimum alteration in the migration data is two. More than two alterations in migrated data will be considered as extra effort. 
 
User Training  
 

  • Implementer will provide training for the staff who are officially recommended by the customer management side.
