Using Conversion to Your Advantage

Most people shiver at the first mention of the word 'conversion' during a system implementation. For some organizations, conversion may be the key factor when determining whether to undertake a new system implementation. The dread associated with the term stems from unpredictability and uncertainty in time, cost and data quality. There is no cookie-cutter conversion ' no two conversions are the same, nor should they be handled in the same manner. The conversion effort can be big or small, manual or scripted, stem from a single system or contain legacy data from multiple systems. In any case, there are some key steps that apply to all conversions that should be taken into consideration to execute them successfully. Although conversion is time-intensive and requires sufficient resources, it is a necessary component of most system implementations, and when tailored to an organization's needs and planned correctly, it can be an effective process that yields positive results.
