    We just completed our first migration to 901 and are attempting to begin testing.  When running LP264 to compare totals betwee 900 and 901, we discovered totals didn't match and then discovered records were missing.  We are also going from oracle to sequel server. 

    It appears as if the reason for the failure is that some records in the TAEMPTRANS table have invalid reset dates along with blank date fields.

    Has anyone else had this issue and if so, how did you fix it?

    Thanks for your help.

      Please explain what order you are doing this and how your product lines are set up. In other words, are going from Oracle to SQL in different product lines, or are you trying to do it within the same product line? Are you upgrading from 900->901 by installing 901 over top of existing 900 product line, etc. ? Lawson stores empty/null dates values in Oracle as 1/1/1700, but in MSSQL as 1/1/1753. So my guess would be that the "empty date" values from that table in Oracle are getting dropped when trying to load into SQL since 1/1/1700 is not a valid date in SQL.
      Thanks for using the LawsonGuru.com forums!

        We are going from oracle to sql in a different product line. As I understand, they did a dbcopy from oracle to sql and then upgraded apps to 901.  Everything is on a new server as well.
