Tax Migration

Tax Migration


Install Schema

Run the ScriptInstall.exe executable to get the database tables, triggers, and functions put in place. 
This is found where the Tax Connector is installed.. IE: D:\Visual\localapps\webservices\SynergyTax\SynergyTax\ScriptInstall\




Import Macro's




The XML is usually found in D:\Visual\localapps\webservices\SynergyTax\TaxMacros (you'll want TaxSQLServer.xml to import)





After steps 1 and 2 are complete, take the attached .sql file and open it in SQL Server management studio.  This will move the data from 1 database to another but some mods will have to be done.

Example
To migrate from a database called Pilot1 to Pilot2, do a search and replace for LIVEDB and change it to PILOT2.  Do a search and replace for TESTDB and change to PILOT1.  

You will then need to configure JobQ service for the production DB
