# Convert legacy certification schedules into Data Manager certification policies

# Convert legacy certification schedules into Data Manager certification policies in CMDB Workspace {#ariaid-title1}

Release version: Brazil  
Updated September 10, 2026  
![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 2 minutes to read  
Convert certification schedules created in the legacy Data Certification application (running on Core UI), into draft Data Manager certification policies available in CMDB Workspace.

## Before you begin

Role required: data_manager_admin or sn_cmdb_admin

## About this task

If you have been using the legacy Data Certification application on Core UI, then any associated certification schedules might not be automatically available in the implementation of Data Certification in CMDB Workspace . You can convert those definitions into draft Data Manager Certification policies. Then you can publish those converted policies in CMDB Workspace just like publishing any draft Data Manager policy.  
Important things to know:

* Legacy certification schedules that were successfully converted are automatically deactivated.
* This conversion migrates most fields from the legacy certification schedule. However, the Assign to empty and the Last run date fields aren't migrated into CMDB Workspace Data Manager tables.
* Any dot-walking settings in the legacy certification schedules used for assignments of User Field or User Group Field are preserved in this conversion.

## Procedure

1. Navigate to WorkspacesCMDB WorkspaceGovernance. Then, in the Governance navigation pane, select Data Manager overview
2. On the Data Manager overview page, select Import on the banner at the top of the page.  
   If there aren't any legacy certification schedules to import, the notification banner about importing existing policies doesn't appear.
3. In the Confirm import of certification schedule into draft policies, select Import into draft policies.
   1. Track progression in the Import in progress dialog box.
   2. Review the import results in the Import summary dialog box.  
      If there were earlier conversion operations, the results reflect only the current conversion operation. For example, the Completed count includes only those records that were successfully converted in the
      current run.

      Select the links associated with the completed and skipped results to drill down to the associated records.

      Also, to see additional details, select All and in the Filter navigator, enter <kbd class="ph userinput">cert_schedule.list</kbd> to open the Certification Schedules table. The
      Migration Status and the Migration exception columns provide details that are especially important for failed and skipped records.
   3. Select View draft policies to view the converted policies in the Data Manager policies page, under the Draft policies tab.

4. **Optional:** [Publish a draft CMDB Data Manager policy](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/jBf5wIIF4QLxowzcOb5qVA "If you created a draft Data Manager policy, or imported legacy certification schedules, you can activate that draft policy by publishing it in CMDB Workspace.")

## Result

* If you log in while this conversion is in process, a progress message appears on the Data Manager overview page. You can select the View details link to open the Import in progress dialog box with details about the progress of the operation.
* The legacy certification schedules are available as draft Certification policies in Data Manager in CMDB Workspace .
* The legacy certification schedules are deactivated.
* The legacy certification tasks are unchanged and you can review and resolve them as needed.
