Hello All,

What is best approach to migrate all the catalog items from one instance to other instance of two different companies.

The old instance is having Pairs version and with all custom tables in it.

And the new instance does not have any customizations it is kind of basic Vanilla instance.

Please suggest me the best approach to move all the configurations too.

Please help on this.

Thank you,

Priya.

Hi,

from the list view of dictionary for that table do bulk update

1) Ensure you are in your update set

2) make all fields as active=false using Update with selected all

3) then again make those active=true

Those will be captured in update set

Thanks Ankur,

I understand it..

I have one more doubt.. Please help me.

For example If I create any RITM here in our present instance, and if I need the same request in the new instance.

How can I achieve that? What is the process? And do I need to import all my current catalog items to the new instance?

or do we have any other process?

Please assist.

Thank you,

Priya.

Hi,

Do you wish to migrate RITM, REQ table data as well to another instance?

you will have to manually export them

1) first export all REQ

2) then export all RITM

3) then all sc_task

Hi Ankur,

This is fine.

But my doubt is for example If I create any RITM here in our present instance, and if I need the same request has to be created in the new instance.

Do we need to REST integration for this ? 

Could you please let me know the process.

Hi,

okay so you are saying real-time.

yes then you need to integrate both the instances.
