THE DIRECT ANSWER

Migrate active engagement scope, accepted milestones, unresolved obligations and the reviewed financial position together. Reconcile prior billing, approved changes, subcontract commitments and unbilled effort using an agreed cutover boundary. Preserve technical references without importing every closed issue as live work or treating all recorded development hours as recognized revenue.

Understand the decision

A project can be deployed but awaiting customer acceptance, or accepted while a limited support obligation remains. Legacy time codes may mix project and support activity. The opening snapshot should explain those distinctions so project managers and finance do not draw different conclusions from the same imported status.

Work through the requirements

  1. Map project and support time categories.
  2. Reconcile accepted milestones and prior invoices.
  3. Carry unresolved obligations with named owners.

Watch for this failure

Using deployment date as the universal cutover status can conceal acceptance and support obligations. Reconcile the engagement terms with technical evidence and finance records before the imported project position becomes authoritative for reporting or billing.
