How to Manage the Conversion Legacy Data to Oracle Financials
by Bill Pry, Sr. Consultant, Priority Data Delivery

  
  Converting data from a legacy system to Oracle Financials consists of more the Extraction-Translation-Loading of data. While it is true that a developer can begin coding and quickly produce results, there may be significant problems in the data and the storage of that data that are noticed only after mega-rows of data have been converted.

To avoid the surprises involved with converting data for go-live, it is wise to consider other factors than just the program itself.
