Additional Information


Field

Description

User ID

The target user to whom you are moving history and settings; this is the new user.

Copy roles and attributes from source user ID’s to target user ID’s?

When migrating to a new user for the purpose of a name change, check this box so the new User ID will have the exact same permissions as the original User ID.

Enable the target account’s status if needed?

Leave unchecked to retain control of when this new user account can be used.  This allows other user detail to be addressed prior to activating the account.  Check this option if the new user account should become immediately available after the migrate history step is complete.

Disable the source account’s status if needed?

When migrating to a new user for the purpose of a name change, check this box so the original user account is disabled while the final migration steps are completed.

Copy user master fields from source to target record (if they are missing)?

When migrating to a new user for the purpose of a name change, check this box so the new User ID will have the exact same account attributes as the original User ID.

Move e-mail address from source to target record (if it missing on target)? 

If the new user has the same email address, select this option. E-mail addresses must be unique on Munis user accounts.

Move employee number from source to target record (if it missing on target)?

If the new user has the same employee number, select this option. Employee numbers must be unique on Munis user accounts.


  • The Move History tool should only be used to move history between user accounts that belong to the same individual person

    • Example:

      • An individual has changed their legal name and has a new User ID. Move History can be used to move the transactional history from the old User ID to the new User ID.

  • The Move History tool should NOT be used to move history from a previous individual to a new individual

    • Example:

      • Sara Smith, with User ID ssmith, has retired from their Accountant position. Bonnie Joe, with User ID bjoe, has been hired as a new Accountant. History should NOT be moved from ssmith to bjoe. When transactions are audited, the transactions should remain under the individual who executed them.

  • If a new user needs the same roles/permissions as an existing user, use the Copy tool: Copy Or Duplicate Roles To A New Or Existing User
