Conversion Guidelines

To ensure the success of the base currency conversion:

• Test the conversion in a test or Conference Room Pilot (CRP) environment that contains a copy of the production data.

• Correct any data issues that occur during the testing in both the test and production environments.

• Update the production environment when you are satisfied with the results of the conversion in the test environment and are ready to go live.

For optimum results, plan to start and finish the conversion process without interruption. The steps are:

1. Complete the preconversion tasks.

2. Update the conversion scheduler and Audit Record table.

3. Run the conversion and verify its success

4. Run the ordered and additional conversion programs.

5. Complete the postconversion tasks and go live, thereby resuming your daily business operations.
