Hi There

There is a migration path,but it is advised that you contact your local SAP representative to get more information and a proper effort estimate regarding the migration.

At a brief overview as per Raghu's post, the migration tool currently takes BPC 7.0 /  7.5 MS Appsets to 7.5 NW but can only be done by a certified migration consultant.

The migration tool has the following support and limitations:

Supported:

Objects	Migration Supported
Application Sets	X
Dimensions (incl. Properties, members, hierarchies, etc.)	X ( Dimension Member Formulas are moved not converted)
Applications	X
Security	X
Input Schedules & Workbooks	X (with manual steps)
Web Admin	X
Business Rules	X
Audit Data	X
Comments	X
Journals	X (modified Journal Templates not supported)
Work Status	X (Settings but no locks)
Distributor Templates	X
Content Library	X
Web Based Reports	X
Web Current View	X

Not Supported:

Script Logic

Data Manager Packages

BPF’s

Insight

Books

Custom Menus

Custom SSIS Tasks

Custom T-SQL

A possible migration path 'could' be migrate to 7.5 NW then use the program UJT_MIGRATE_75_TO_10 to migrate your 7.5 NW appset to a ver 10 Environment, but this is only a possible option.There is a migration path from MS to NW, but unfortunately the tool will only take across the standard functionality, and requires some considerable work. It is highly recommended to contact your SAP office to get more information and guidance on the migration tool set, path and steps needed to perform the migration.

The reason why I have singled out 'could' is due to the fact that ultimately the migration is dependant on the complexity of your application set. If you have a lot of customizations or custom SSIS packages, then you will need to redo all of that logic into a custom process chain. If your reports contain highly complex and nested EVDRE's. You will invariably end up rebuilding the report using the new EPM functions.

I hope this helps and points you in the right direction

Kind Regards

Daniel
