Defining a new ASG Zena project

This topic describes how to define a new ASG Zena (Zena) conversion project. You can analyze the complexity of the conversion project by viewing the assessment report. You can either import the data by extracting the files manually or automatically extracting the files from the Zena database into the Conversion Tool without having to configure your environment.

Before you begin

Ensure the following:

• (Manual import only) Export your Zena data, as described in ASG Zena data extraction.
