There are many reasons Cleo Clarify customers want to migrate their existing Clarify set-ups to Version 2 (V2)

Part of the process of migrating to V2 is manually upgrading the ruleset(s)

In several posts, we will review the steps required to move from V1 to V2.

• Initial Steps.
• Replacing Rules and Conditions
• Create V2 Aars (Dars)

INITIAL STEPS

Step 1: Copy V1 Ruleset to a New Name

Step 2: Add header text

1. Open the ruleset, using the Ruleset Text based-text Editor

2. Add the following to the beginning of the ruleset

#content/*ruleset 2 */

Step 3: Update RDO

If the ruleset is using a Ruleset Data Object (RDO), add the following to the beginning of the RDO

#content/*rulesetDataObject 2 */

Step 4: Clean-up Variables

Ruleset variables should convert easily for V2 rulesets. However if there are variables with predefined lengths, the lengths should be removed.

A sampling of the variables, with pre-defined lengths are highlighted (below)

Step 5: Update Connector Options

All rulesets have connectorOptions, and at minumum a sourceConnector.

These values need to be updated for V2. Below is a V2 example

Below are the V1->V2 conversion examples

EDI to Database
V1
sourceConnector = new ConvertEdiToDocument
targetConnector = new ConvertDocumentToDocumentTgt

V2
sourceConnector = new X12Connector
targetConnector = new DatabaseFileConnector

Database to EDI
V1
sourceConnector = new ConvertDocumentToDocumentSrc
targetConnector = new ConvertDocumentToEdi

V2
sourceConnector = new DatabaseFileConnector
targetConnector = new X12Connector

EDI to Flatfile
V1
sourceConnector = new ConvertEdiToDocument
targetConnector = new ConvertFileDelimitedToDocument

V2
sourceConnector = new X12Connector
targetConnector = new DelimitedFlatFileConnector
