Migration

There are strict database rules for data in Opera 3 SQL SE. These rules make sure that dates and values are recorded correctly and related database tables reconcile - for example invoice totals must equate with the sum of the invoice detail lines. The database 'health checker' in the Server Administration and Monitoring application completes these checks prior to the data migration from other editions of Opera 3.

Server Administration & Monitoring

To make the migration from other editions of Pegasus Opera 3 as smooth as possible using the Server Administration and Monitoring application, a new company is automatically created in Opera 3 SQL SE during the migration. If a problem is found during the migration the changes in Microsoft SQL Server can be rolled back. The migration of data includes PDF files (Portable Document Format) like invoices, statements and remittance advices.

To migrate data from other vendors' software solutions, contact Pegasus Software.
