Overview

Run Your Migration

Run Your Migration brings approved connections and configuration into controlled execution, monitoring, and post-action verification.

A purchased migration service follows three steps:

1. Connect Stores - complete the connection requirements shown for the Source Platform and Target Platform.
2. Configuration - select data, review Additional Options, complete Attribute Mapping, and configure purchased Add-ons or Customization when available.
3. Migration - select a Run Mode, start processing, and monitor results by data type.

Migration actions and Additional Options are different controls

A migration action determines whether you reuse the last used configuration, create a new configuration, or build a fresh migration result. Additional Options can separately control how source data is read, including resuming interrupted processing or using Migrate only newly added entities to read only later-created source records.

Choose your task

Set Up and Run a Demo Migration Test the migration path with a limited sample before using a purchased service.

Review Demo Results Check the Demo sample and classify requirements before proceeding.

Review the Full Migration Configuration Complete the final readiness check before the first Full Migration.

Run a Full Migration Start and monitor the first complete migration under a purchased service.

Compare Migration Action Options Choose the correct action after previous migration activity has completed.

Continue the Migration with the Last Used Configuration Continue without changing the configuration recorded from previous completed activity.

Continue the Migration with a New Configuration Continue from useful earlier work after changing migration settings.

Perform a New Migration Create a fresh result when the earlier migrated result should be replaced.

Validate Results After a Migration Action Verify the action, processed source scope, configuration behavior, and target result.

Before you start

Confirm that:

• the migration path is correct;
• the purchased service is Active;
• the Source Platform and Target Platform connection requirements are available;
• Entity Points capacity is sufficient for eligible records that have not migrated before;
• the intended data, options, mappings, Add-ons, and Customization are understood;
• the target-store impact is acceptable;
• representative validation records and pass conditions are prepared.

Monitor migration activity

During the Migration step, use the data-type table to follow:

• progress;
• successful records;
• failed records;
• skipped records.

Select Run in Browser only when the browser tab can remain open. Select Run in Background when processing should continue on Next-Cart servers after the browser is closed or the computer is turned off.

If target-data clearing is enabled, review the displayed deletion warning and affected data types before selecting Start Migration.

If migration cannot start or processing stops

Observable problem	Correct starting point
A source or target connection does not pass	Connection Issues
Required Data, Options, Mapping, Add-ons, or approved Customization is unavailable or incorrect	Configure Your Migration or Add-on and Customization Issues
The correct later migration action is unclear	Compare Migration Action Options
Processing produces unexplained Failed or Skipped results	Troubleshooting
Processing was interrupted in browser mode	Review Continue Migration Issues before starting another activity.

Preserve History, the migration path, Run Mode, configuration, result counts, and representative identifiers before changing the setup or starting another action.
