Timeframe:

      Dress Rehearsal 1 – TBA

Testing

Testing will occur after each extraction beginning after Dress Rehearsal #1.

The testing of dress rehearsal round one will identify any missed data issues that were not detected as part of CHP’s data cleansing activities. Testing to ensure the migration code is working as needed for the specific customisations. 

CHP Role

      Complete final activities prior to extraction

      Extract data

      Data mapping enhancements if required.

      Reconciliation

      Validate data

      Execute additional reports if applicable

      Data cleansing of any identified data issues

Zavanti Role

Expected Outcome

The purpose of Dress Rehearsal round 1 is to develop the export process and import scripting and to ensure the migration code is working as needed for the specific customisations. All implementation activities occur as expected including data transfers successfully from CHP’s core systems to Zavanti Housing Solution’s system and lands in the right fields and format as mapped. Round 1 will identify any additional data cleansing required by CHP in preparation of second round of data migration.
