Adventure_Works_Cycle Licenses Now We Moving Over to our own license

In AD do I need to DEL the Adventure Works OU before I create a new one Call
MyComanyCRM?



Qusestíon2

The Databases Adventure_Works_Cycle_MScrm

Adventure_Works_Cycle_Metabase

Adventure_Works_Cycle_Crystal



Can I restore them as mycomany_Crystal?

You must treat the new implementation as just that - a brand new install,
independant of your AWC test implementation.

When you install with the new org name, a new OU will be created and new
objects will be created underneath it. There is no reason you cannot run
both of these installations side by side (use one as a test environment) if
you wanted to.

Your AWC databases cannot be restored directly. To get the data out of AWC
and into your new implementation, you will need to use the CRM's Data
Migration Framework, or a 3rd party tool like Scribe. Unless you have a lot
of data, you are likely better off hiring a temp to do data entry than
wrestle with data migration (that's just my personal editorial though).

Hope that helps

Dave
