Epicor 9 Data migration tool (DMT) in a multi-company envir. (gl

Stephen,

Thanks for the tip. I have donwloaded and installed the new DMT version 1.04.2 which does show the addition of Global parts. This will get us over the first hurdle for further testing

Regards,
Scott

We have used DMT successfully, but have run into a limitation whereby DMT does not support the global parts table. As a result, jobs with parts checked as "global" do not run in MRP.

We can get around the problem temporarily by unchecking global, but this disables a big chunk of the multi-company capability we will need shortly after our launch.

Does anyone share this problem, or have word on a DMT upgrade? We recently filed a support call on this.
Hi Scott,



DMT does support Global Parts, ensure you are using the latest version
available from EpicWeb.

However, you do need to have sonic and all the standard multi company
elements working correctly for it to work.



Typically you create the parts mark as global and then run the global
part linking import to add them to the other companies.

This establishes the links, but it is down to the multi company process
to move the records to the IM tables and push through the details.



Have you verified that your configuration is setup correctly and
processing parts manually work correctly?



Regards,

Stephen

We have used DMT successfully, but have run into a limitation whereby
DMT does not support the global parts table. As a result, jobs with
parts checked as "global" do not run in MRP.

We can get around the problem temporarily by unchecking global, but this
disables a big chunk of the multi-company capability we will need

With DMT and E9 is there a way to do 'mass linking' of parts,
customers, suppliers, or other Global master file items?

In V8 there's no way to do it. I tried to figure out a Service
Connect-based route but failed. I wound up doing some UI scripting
using a Windows-based mouseclick recorder, which worked fine the first
time we did it, and created real problems the second time.
