MIS Migration Guide: Are you considering switching your Management Information System (MIS)?

This article will outline the steps and considerations for a successful MIS migration.

When changing your MIS, it’s crucial to follow a structured process to ensure seamless integration of the new MIS with your Admissions+ System. Our MIS Migration Manager will oversee the process and provide guidance.

We have established guidelines to streamline the migration and minimize risks. Please review this document thoroughly.

Process:

Note Important Dates: Inform Applicaa by completing the MIS Migration Form. If you are migrating multiple schools, kindly complete a separate form for each school.
After Submitting the Form:

- The MIS Migration Manager will open an internal support ticket for email correspondence. You will receive a Shared Tracking Sheet detailing the steps that both Applicaa and your school need to complete. Please note to always update the Shared Tracking Sheet.
- Create a CSV for internal applicants and any already exported to SIMS to ensure you have a backup file.
- Link your new MIS credentials to the Admissions+ Integration page.
- Wait for Applicaa to validate the MIS, reconfigure the form, and provide you with the Mapping list.
- Complete the mapping list.
- Review form questions, lookup visibility, and order.
- Once Applicaa confirms that all back-end tasks are completed, create a Test Application and export it to your new MIS.
- Inform Applicaa whether the test was successful.

Note: Avoid MIS migration during enrollment. Follow all provided guidelines for each form and share this information with relevant staff.

Plan time to prepare communications for parents/applicants and other staff.
