Making migration easy for you

Full Convert is a fully self-tuning software. Your migration will work as expected without you needing to adjust anything.

Data types are different in SQL Server Express compared to the source SAP Adaptive Server Enterprise. We automatically adjust them as we copy the tables so you don't have to worry about it. You can adjust the mapping rules if you wish to change the following defaults:

  • binary varbinary(max) (if precision > 8000)
  • char varchar(max) (if precision > 8000)
  • datetime datetime2 (if version at least 10)
  • double float(53)
  • image varbinary(max)
  • text varchar(max)
  • ubigint bigint
  • uint bigint
  • unichar nvarchar(max) (if precision > 4000)
  • unitext nvarchar(max)
  • univarchar nvarchar(max) (if precision > 4000)
  • usmallint int
  • varbinary varbinary(max) (if precision > 8000)
  • varchar varchar(max) (if precision > 8000)

Full Convert migration in 4 easy steps

1.
SAP Adaptive Server Enterprise connection

Connection to SAP Adaptive Server Enterprise

We will select SAP Adaptive Server Enterprise from the drop down and fill out the connection parameters.

2.

Connection to SQL Server Express

We will choose SQL Server from the list of available source database engines. Depending on your SQL Server setup, you will need to connect using Windows or SQL Server authentication.

For SQL Express, we need to specify the server\instance name, like this: servername\SQLEXPRESS

We have Windows authentication here, so all we need to do is select our desired database from the drop-down list.
