Understanding Homebuilder Management Conversion

To migrate existing data from JD Edwards World to Homebuilder Management for JD Edwards EnterpriseOne, you must convert specific JD Edwards World Homebuilder files to JD Edwards EnterpriseOne tables. To assist you in the conversion process, Homebuilder Management has several conversion programs, which function with JD Edwards World version A7.3, service pack 12 and above.

The conversion process uses the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne table conversion tool, and in some cases, a batch update process. You must use the setup programs to manually enter data in the tables that are new to Homebuilder Management in JD Edwards EnterpriseOne.

Only editable fields are mapped for the conversion. If you have modified any JD Edwards World files or programs to allow editing in fields that are traditionally not editable, you must modify the conversion programs to map those fields from JD Edwards World to JD Edwards EnterpriseOne tables. The conversion programs are written to allow selection at the community level except for takeoffs, which allow selection at the area level.

The conversion programs do not remove the JD Edwards World data from the tables after the conversion is finished.
