    Key Features

    • Migration Tracking: Once you initiate the migration, track its progress through the Assessment template migrations list under All > Smart Assessment Engine > Administration > Template Migrations.
    • Unique Migration Identifiers: Each migration record is assigned a unique identifier starting with "ATMIG" for categories, "ATQMIG" for questions, and "ATROMIG" for response options, facilitating easy search and retrieval.
    • Status Indicators: The migration status can be 'Completed', 'Errored', or 'Not Supported', providing clear insights into the migration process and potential issues.

    Key Outcomes

    Upon accessing the migration results, you'll find detailed information in related lists for section migrations, question migrations, and response option migrations. Each list includes:

    • Source and Target Definitions: Understand which metric categories, questions, and response options were migrated or created.
    • Error Details: If errors occur, descriptions are provided for troubleshooting.

    This structured approach ensures ServiceNow customers can efficiently manage the migration process and make necessary adjustments based on the results and error feedback.

    You can view the data that was migrated from the metric type to the Smart Assessment Engine assessment template in the related lists on the Assessment template migration form.
