Migration Issues and Resolutions

When you run the Laserfiche Cloud Migration Readiness Assessment Tool, any items that cannot be directly migrated from your self-hosted installation to Laserfiche Cloud, or that cannot be rebuilt exactly the same way in Laserfiche Cloud, will appear with a code next to them. The assessment tool provides a brief description of the item, but for more detailed instructions on how to migrate the self-hosted item to its Laserfiche Cloud equivalent, find the item code below.

LFMIG-1000

Starting workflows with Business Process Rules is not currently supported in Laserfiche Cloud, but your process can be redesigned to achieve similar functionality.

Legacy Laserfiche Business Processes have been replaced by the current version of Business Processes in Laserfiche Cloud.

Preparing to Migrate

1. Make a note of the security set on the rule (which users are allowed to start the business process) and the requirements for the rule (what conditions need to be met for users to start the business process).
2. Determine if the workflow associated with the rule can be started based on a condition or schedule.
   1. If it can be started based on a condition or schedule, create a condition or schedule starting event in Laserfiche Cloud.
   2. If it needs to be started manually, Laserfiche Cloud offers a few options:
      • Create a business process that starts with a generic start event and contains a Workflow service task that starts the workflow.
      • Begin configuring a Connector profile, using the Start workflow action, that embeds a button in whatever application you want users to start the workflow from. You will need to connect the profile to the workflow after migration.

After Migration

• If you created a condition or schedule starting event to start the workflow, edit the starting event to invoke the migrated workflow.
• If you created a business process to start the workflow, edit the Workflow service task to connect to the migrated workflow and publish the business process.
• If you created a Connector profile to start the workflow, edit the profile to connect to the migrated workflow and finish the profile wizard. Then deploy the profile to the users you want to be able to start the workflow.

LFMIG-1001, 1002, & 1003

Route Entry to Folder, Route Entry to Group, and Route Entry to User activities are not currently supported in Laserfiche Cloud, but your workflow can be redesigned to achieve similar functionality.

The components of the Route Entry to Folder, Route Entry to Group, and Route Entry to User activities need to be replaced with individual activities.

Preparing to Migrate

• If you are migrating a Route Entry to Group activity, ensure the group you are routing to has been recreated as a Team in Process Automation.
• If you are migrating a Route Entry to Group or Route Entry to User activity, create a business process in Laserfiche Cloud that emails a link to the routed document or assigns a task to the user or team.

After Migration

1. Replace the routing activity with the following activities (as needed), and ensure they are all acting on the same entry.
   • Move Entry
   • Assign Field Values
   • Assign Tags
   • Email
   • Invoke Business Process: If using, configure the Invoke Business Process activity to start the business process you created in the Preparing to Migrate section.
   • Wait for Entry Change
2. You may want to put all these activities in a Sequence activity to keep this section of your workflow organized.

LFMIG-1004

Assign Geographical Location activities are not currently supported in Laserfiche Cloud.

Related Options

• Business Process Forms have a geolocation field option that can automatically retrieve and store the location where the form is being filled out.
• Replace the Assign Geographical Location activity with a Wait for Entry Change activity and have a user manually enter a geographic location.

•  Use the link next to each option to go to the list of lookup tables or data sources configured in Laserfiche Cloud. If the lookup table or data source you want to insert data into isn't already added to those lists, add it now. The following external databases are supported: SQL, PostgreSQL, MySQL, and CSV.
• To run queries on a database behind a firewall, you will also need to configure a Remote Agent so that Laserfiche Cloud can securely communicate with the database.
6. Configure and publish your query.

Retrieve Business Process Variables activities are not currently supported in Laserfiche Cloud.

Update the workflow to accept input parameters from business processes.

Preparing to Migrate

Determine if you want to retrieve form content in Laserfiche Cloud using input parameters or using the Save to Repository task.

• If you have a business process that starts a workflow, then the best way to pass information from the business process to the workflow is by configuring input parameters on the workflow to receive the field values.
