BOOTCAMP Plus: Data Migration

 

Host: Paul Baxter, Knowledge Manager + Analyst, Craftsman Technology Group

Data Migration is part of our BOOTCAMP Plus series. It is a half day classroom training recommended for intermediate-level Salesforce users. Each BOOTCAMP Plus session focuses on a specific topic and allows for detailed scenarios and hands-on exercises. It gives nonprofit professionals a deeper understanding of how to best leverage Salesforce.

Successful data migration requires preparing data in a format compatible with Salesforce. You will learn how to successfully migrate your organization's information by matching your data to Salesforce’s internal structure. Leave with the confidence and knowledge to:

• Prepare data in Excel
• Understand the differences between various data migration tools: Data Loader, Dataloader.io, Data Wizard
• Execute simple migration
• Migrate donations and attach the data to accounts
• Migrate cases and attach data to contacts
• Add contacts to campaigns
• Execute advanced migration using External IDs to attach donations to accounts
• Insert, update and delete with a data migration tool

Please bring a laptop to the training. There will be hands-on learning exercises. Chrome or Firefox browsers are recommended (Internet Explorer and Safari do not work well with Salesforce). Chromebooks and tablets are not recommended due to varying interfaces.
