Hi @Snehal13 

 

There are 2 things

- Table move/ Business Logic : Use Update Set

- Data - Use XML based movement

 

Best practice

- Make sure complete only required update set.

- Make them in batches

- Linked as parent - child

- Define order of update set movement.

- Do sanity check before you move update set / data.
