Streamline Data Migrations

Outlook Computing Releases FileTrack V2.0

November 19, 1998 -- Outlook Computing announces Version 2.0 of FileTrack, its AS/400-based data conversion tool designed for companies migrating data from existing applications when implementing new software systems.

The FileTrack system streamlines data conversion projects by providing a powerful set of tools to automate conversion work. While FileTrack is AS/400 based, it works with data from any hardware platform once brought to the AS/400 in the system's native EBCDIC format.

At FileTrack's core are the system's intuitive data mapping options, which let users define how data will be transferred between files. The system also contains powerful conversion testing, project management and documentation tools to help ensure conversions are completed accurately.

The latest release of FileTrack features the addition of conversion streams to the system. Conversion streams allow the grouping of multiple conversion tasks into a single job. The feature allows users to build entire system conversions (including non-FileTrack job steps) that can be run, and repeated, with a single screen selection.

According to Outlook Computing president, Mitch Cohen, "The conversion stream feature provides a lot of flexibility in completing a data conversion. It lets users incorporate non-FileTrack processes into a FileTrack conversion and eliminates the need for extensive CL conversion programming."
