We have a client that needs detailed historical data migration to be carried out. We would appreciate any insight on the same.
We plan on importing most of the data using the LedgerGeneralJournalService and using a suspense account for the GL trial balance imports and then offsetting the same when importing the sub-ledgers.
We need to make sure that we are on the right track for historical Payroll imports.
We also see default DMFs for POs and Product Receipts and want to know if anyone has used these for historical data migrations and issues that anyone may have faced when carrying this out for historical data of the same.
I did see another blog by André Arnaud de Calavon about configuration settings for ledger postings an unrelated topic: https://community.dynamics.com/ax/f/33/t/129779 This got me thinking that could this be another option for posting GL trial balances and carry out a separate set of imports for AP/PO/FA/PY imports and NOT have them impact the GL, basically create the situation that Howard in the link above was trying to get out of?
Looking forward to input / previously deployed solution strategies.

I have the same question (0)Hi Navin,
There are actually some tools that you can use not to invent your own bicycle :)

Talking about DMF it is used under the hood in entity store so you should not have any issue with export data.
