SAFe to EAP migration tasks

1. Verify EAP configuration for migration from SAFe.

   Based on your existing SAFe configuration, verify that the right EAP configuration is activated in your instance and ensure that the right work types (Epic, Feature, and Story) are allowed for this configuration.

   For example, if you are a user of ServiceNow Essential SAFe application, you must activate the Essential Configuration in EAP and ensure that EAP Epic and Feature are allowed as work types.

2. Verify table, field, and choice mapping between SAFe and EAP.

   Verify that the tables, columns, choice fields, and custom tables of your SAFe application are correctly mapped to those in EAP.

   Note:

   By default, all columns of SAFe Story [sn_safe_story] and SAFe Scrum Task [sn_safe_scrum_task] tables are migrated to the Story [rm_story] and Scrum Task [rm_scrum_task] tables. To include or exclude any columns, see Modify columns to migrate from SAFe story and SAFe Scrum task tables to EAP.
3. Start migration of SAFe data to EAP.
4. Add Agile Team as the type for existing SAFe groups. See Add Agile Team type to SAFe groups for EAP migration.
5. Assign the EAP roles sn_apw_advanced.eap_read_only, sn_apw_advanced.eap_user, and sn_apw_advanced.eap_admin to your SAFe groups or to individual users in your teams.

   See Assign a role to a group or Assign a role to a user.
