Concept: Reference ID Management for Object Migration

Concept: Reference ID Management for Object Migration

It's important to manage Reference IDs as you migrate objects between tenants. Object Transporter assumes that 2 object instances with the same Reference ID and Reference ID Type are identical.
Best practice is to give parent and dependent objects Reference IDs that are unique across all of your tenants, and to do so before their first migration. When an object has the same Reference ID in all of your tenants, you can easily migrate changes made to it in 1 tenant to a different tenant.
Use the
Integration IDs
report to find current Reference ID values for one or more object types.
Use the
Maintain Reference IDs
task to make bulk changes.
