Object Transporter Migration Paths

Object Transporter Migration Paths

Object Transporter supports migrations between these tenant types for:
  • Single instances.
  • Standard configuration packages in Object Transporter
  • Advanced configuration packages in Configuration Change Tracker.
  • Configuration extracts.

If the content relies on functionality that Workday hasn’t yet delivered to Production tenants, wait until Workday completes the delivery cycle to Production before you migrate.
Workday often delivers updated web service versions, new data models and configurations, or new implementation types to Preview tenants first before non-Preview tenants. These differences make a successful migration unlikely until the updated functionality is delivered to target tenants as well.

Workday App Development tenant
When you migrate a configuration extract, Workday provides an option to select a Development tenant as a target tenant. If you're migrating extracted content from an Implementation to a Development tenant, Workday doesn't support this path. These migrations result in an error message.
