Jay -
What about migrating QuickBooks data from the UK version of QuickBooks premier into a Dynamics GP company installed with the UK language option? I'm having trouble with the Rapid Migration tool where it's looking for a SSN number to migrate employees. The problem is the UK doesn't use SSN, they use NI instead. Will the Rapid Migration Tool for GP 2010 handle this?
Thanks,
Sean Reynolds
Sean,
We support only US English. There has been no testing without a SSN. It is conceivable that you could import from an Excel sheet (export the data into a workbook) but I have no idea what overall results would be as there is quite a bit that depends on that field. If we are finding that we could potentially have a good customer base in UK we could look at extending the mapping model so support NI. We would have to have someone do some analysis to determine whether or not NI is handled just like SSN throughout the system.

Hi Jay, does it support GP 2013 as yet? or does it support GP 2010 R2?
The existing tool supports GP2010 R2. The new tool has not been released yet, but should be shortly. It will handle GP 2013 as well as GP 2010.

How many days of time should I estimate to do this conversion from QB's to GP
Eric - One clarification - The tool supports CONFIGURATION of either GP 2010 or GP 2013. The MIGRATION tool is only for GP 2013.
Doug - Great question, and hard to give you any estimates as we don't do project management. I'm publishing this on the hopes that some of our partners that do this regularily can respond.
Jay/Doug - RMT tool works great for migrating data from QB to GP 2010 or 2013. None of our GP implementation goes without RMT. Once the GP/RMT toot set is installed, then it's a matter of days to run through the migration. 1 week I would say.
