Exporting data/legal entity

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by RyanC 655

Hello all,

I am looking around trying to find out how to easily export data from on server and move it to the other server.  I was wondering if there was a way to export legal entities as well.  So far I know about two ways to export.  One way is to go to System Administration > Common > Data Import / Export > Export to and the Data Import Export Framework.  I am trying to copy a setup legal entity to another computer what is the easiest way to do that?

Thanks,

Ryan

    Hi Ryan,

    The Data Import Export Framework can be used, but for a complete setup, you probably have to create additional entities (customization) as not every table is supported out of the box.

    You can also have a look at the Test Data Transfer Tool. Copy a single legal entity or even the complete setup of one legal entity is somehow cumbersome.

    Thanks! The test data transfer was the easiest.  Does take some reconfiguring though.
