JD Edwards World Migration

Before using Homebuilder Management, you need to set up several components. The setup of these components is builder-specific and can support the specific business needs.

When you migrate existing data from JD Edwards World to Homebuilder Management for JD Edwards EnterpriseOne, you must convert specific JD Edwards World Homebuilder tables to JD Edwards EnterpriseOne tables. To aid you in the conversion process, Homebuilder Management includes several conversion programs. The conversion process uses the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne table conversion tool, and in some cases, a batch update process. For tables that are new to Homebuilder Management and that do not contain numerous records, you must manually enter data in those tables using the setup programs.

Only editable fields are mapped for conversion. If you have modified any JD Edwards World tables or modified programs to allow you to edit fields that are not editable in the standard version of JD Edwards World, you must modify the conversion programs to map those fields. The conversion programs do not remove the JD Edwards World data from the tables after the conversion. The conversions are written to allow selection at the community level (except for takeoffs, for which area is the primary key).
