Business value

Now that Dynamics 365 Human Resources is on the Finance and Operations infrastructure, customers on the standalone Human Resources app need to migrate to the new infrastructure.

Feature details

Customers using the standalone Dynamics 365 Human Resources application will migrate to the Finance and Operations infrastructure using Lifecycle Services. As part of the migration process, all configuration information, employee data, personalizations, and workflows will be migrated through a database copy from the standalone Human Resources infrastructure to the Finance and Operations infrastructure. This migration will be into a new, empty Finance and Operations environment. Customers also using Dynamics 365 Finance can then choose when or if they want to merge these two environments into a single environment at some point.

Customer migration is a "lift-and-shift migration" (movement) of a customer database to the Finance and Operations infrastructure and automated migration tooling is used for it. The result is a new Finance and Operations environment that uses the customer's Human Resources database.
