Switch from Legacy to Data Mart in Management Reporter

I have a client that is using Management Reporter 2012 version 2.1.1028.0. They are using Legacy because that is the only thing available in that version. I want to upgrade them from Legacy to Data Mart in the latest version of Management Reporter.

I remember about a year or so ago, I upgraded to the latest version of Management Reporter and switched from Legacy to Data Mart and the rows did not come over the way that they were supposed to. I do not remember the specifics but do remember that it took a number of hours to clean up the mess. My question is: What is the correct way to migrate from Legacy to Data Mart?

RE: Switch from Legacy to Data Mart in Management Reporter

Go to this link: https://wc.ficp.support.microsoft.com/SelfHelp?knowledgebaseArticleFilter This takes you to a diagnostics packages page.

In the search box, type Management Reporter. You will get a result for "Dynamics AX Management Reporter 2012 TDBX Update. Click on it and click "Create."

You will use the program that you get as a result to convert the reports. Run it against the report export file you created from legacy. You will rename Natural to Main and the Segment 1, Segment 2, etc. to whatever your segments are called in the Flex key definitions.
