Before you begin

Before you convert PowerCenter or Data Engineering Integration assets, complete the following steps:
    1Complete the assessment of the repository. For more information on assessment, see the Repository Assessment section.
    2Assign the required asset permissions to create or run a conversion task. For more information on the asset permissions, see the Asset permissions for conversion task topic.
    3To convert PowerCenter assets, configure the Xml_Pre_Processing_Configuration.xlsx file to pre-process the PC XML before converting or repointing. For more information on configuring this file, see the Configuring the XML Pre-processor file topic.
    4Create a Connection Map configuration to map the old connection types and connection names to new connection types and connection names. For more information on creating this configuration, see the Creating a connection map configuration topic.
    5Create a Conversion Properties configuration to override the default conversion behavior. For more information on creating this configuration, see the Creating a conversion properties configuration topic.
