Introduction These status pages are intended primarily for the project team. Subsequently, they may be of use to other CUFS clients with the conversion to Advantage 2.0. In many cases, the verbiage is of necessity technical, and is not intended for readers not having the requisite background.
Work continues on conversion design and functional review.
It now appears that the conversion of the reporting category field is going to be more problematic than was earlier anticipated. The loading of the CUFS production copy was completed this week. ASU will need to make some preliminary decisions on design fairly quickly since the tables need to be populated in order to effectively test conversion programs. We very briefly also discussed some of the preliminary ideas relative to timing for the Advantage database conversion . We agreed we needed to explore more the option of completing fiscal 1997 year end closing in CUFS before conversion since AMS was not comtemplating a phased conversion approach in their design work thus far.
