Use the data upgrade cockpit before you synchronize the database and data. This stage, Presynchronization, prepares the following:
-
Earlier versions of Microsoft Dynamics AX database schema for synchronization.
For example, it deletes duplicates or disables unique indexes such as
ReleaseUpdateDB_V30toV40::allowDupPurchParmTable. -
Any metadata changes with an "undo" in the postsynchronization phase.
The data upgrade cockpit helps manage the upgrade by using new server based batch functionality. The tool provides an overview of the upgrade tasks that must be run when you upgrade from an earlier version of Microsoft Dynamics AX, and helps you manage their processing. One line in the table represents one upgrade script or task.
