The tool that should be used for cleaning up data, reviewing and configuring SQL optimizations, and identifying deprecated features in the code during migration from Dynamics AX 2012 R3 to a Dynamics 365 Finance environment using Lifecycle Services (LCS) is the Upgrade analyzer.
The Upgrade analyzer is a tool provided by Microsoft to assist in the upgrade process from Dynamics AX 2012 R3 to Dynamics 365 Finance. It analyzes the Dynamics AX 2012 R3 codebase and identifies deprecated features, potential issues, and code conflicts in the code. This helps to reduce the risk of code issues and streamline the upgrade process.
The Upgrade analyzer also provides recommendations for improving performance and stability in the Dynamics 365 Finance environment. It reviews the SQL optimization and recommends best practices to configure SQL for optimal performance. It also identifies data quality issues that need to be addressed before migrating data to Dynamics 365 Finance.
Microsoft Azure DevOps is a collaboration tool that enables team members to plan, track, and collaborate on work across the development lifecycle. While it can be used to manage the migration process, it is not specifically designed for data cleanup, SQL optimization, or identifying deprecated features in the code.
Code upgrade estimation tools help to estimate the amount of time and effort required to upgrade code from one version to another. They do not provide data cleanup, SQL optimization, or identify deprecated features.
The Data Import/Export Framework (DIXF) is a tool designed to import and export data in bulk to and from Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance. While it can be used to clean up data, it is not specifically designed to identify deprecated features or optimize SQL.
In summary, the Upgrade analyzer tool should be used for cleaning up data, reviewing and configuring SQL optimizations, and identifying deprecated features in the code during migration from Dynamics AX 2012 R3 to Dynamics 365 Finance using Lifecycle Services.
