Recoding Data

Use the Recoding data feature to recode master data, as a part of migration. This feature is available only when you migrate data from earlier releases of baanerp to Infor10 ERP Enterprise. You must maintain conversion code for each recoding scenario.

For example, to recode address codes and warehouse codes, you must maintain two codes here, such as ADDR and WARE. The codes can be defined at your own convenience. For each conversion code, you must maintain only one pair of old and new values. These values need not be the actual values, because the actual values are generated and maintained in the DCA’s Infor Source Engine.

Fields | Description
Conversion Code | Displays the conversion code used to uniquely identify the old value/new value pairs. The length of the conversion code can be a maximum of five characters. Note To change the company numbers, use the conversion code COMP, which is a reserved key word for company number recoding.
Description | The description of the conversion code. You can enter information for your reference.
Old Value | Displays the old value present in the source data that must be replaced with the new value. Note You must enter a dummy value. The actual old and new value pairs are maintained in the SSA Banc/4c4 Engine.
