Before you start your upgrade, we recommend that you run the Intelligent Data Management Framework (IDMF) against your source Microsoft Dynamics AX database. The IDMF is a tool that simplifies the removal of redundant and unnecessary data. A clean database can reduce the processing time that is required during the upgrade.

For information about how to download, install, and use the IDMF, see the TechNet topic Intelligent Data Management Framework for Microsoft Dynamics AX [AX 2012].
