Hello All,

Is there an automated way to migrate Sterling maps to run on ITX? I am aware that Sterling mapper and ITX are both different technologies, but, we have a customer that has several Sterling maps and they are keen to move to ITX.

Over the years, this customer has refined their existing Sterling maps to format the data in the format that they want. My challenge with building new ITX maps from scratch is that these maps will not have the mappings that are present in the existing Sterling maps. 

Can you please share what is the best practice to follow in order to move Sterling maps to ITX without introducing new bugs of our own?

Thanks,

Harish

It would be really heard to migrate maps from one technology to another.  My  First instinct is to avoid migration and re-use the maps (ITX Advanced allows users to use both Sterling maps and WTX maps).  If its a necessity, may be you can load Sterling XML files and Use ITX Design Studio Java API and automate the process to create maps, cards and some rules.  At some point, you have do manually mapping.  Hope this helps
