FRX MIGRATION WIZARD FOR MR2012 RTM

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

We are running GP2010 on SQL2005 on a Window2003 server.  I installed Management Reporter 2012 RTM the only version that Microsoft said would work, and it did.  But I don't see the Migration options on the launch screen that I saw on the later versions.  Is there and FRX migration wizard on the oldest version of MR2012 and if there is, where is it hiding?

Please help us Obi Wans, you are my final hope

    Hi Michael,

    I see... I'm like Harry and keep all the installation files back to GP 10.0... I still have MR v2.0 if you need :-)..

    The migration wizard came actually with the FP1 of MR 2012 (Feature Pack 1), which has  the build version 1028 of MR 2012. In this package the sub-folder 'migration' was added to the setup file (as Harry mentioned).

    I'd truly encourage you to upgrade your GP / MR configuration as soon as you can, as a lot of functionality has been added since then (FP1 is dated April 27, 2012).

    Let us know if you need more help.

    Hi Michael,

    MR 2012 comes with a migration wizard with each 'major' update... The latest release of the FRx Migration User Guide is located here from April 23, 2015 :

    www.microsoft.com/.../details.aspx

    the file is called MRforDynERPMigrfromFRxGuide_ENUS.pdf

    The utility is part of the Setup.exe in MR 2012 (select the Migration Wizard).

    I am a bit of a pack-rat, and found the oldest version of Management Reporter I installed, which may or may not have been 2012RTM.  I browsed the folder structure, and found the following location.  Try looking there:

    Management Reporter\32bit\2012installFiles\pkg\migration
