cdf data migration framework

just installed and configured CRM on a customer site.
They are starting off with the Sales Standard package
that was on special offer this summer. I can't find the
cdf data migration tool to load their accounts data from
their accounts package. Is it not shipped with this
version? If not, then how do I import accounts records -
I have already imported their leads and contacts data
from the import tool within CRM. I could use SQL to load
directly to tables but how do I get the ID's generated
without the data migration tool.

thx in adv

Hi,

You can't load directly into Account table. I use Data
framework migration and it work very good. You can use an
ISV too. Scribe software with MS CRM Connectors. I just
start with this product but it look not to bad.

You can try to download data migration framework from
Microsoft CRM site.
