Everything is in place to begin Conversion #3 on Wednesday. Over the weekend Pete created a new conversion environment, leaving the conversion 2 environment around so that we can continue testing, training, and report writing there. Also over the weekend, we refreshed the data in bentest.
Today all the pre-processes were completed - doing any file manipulations we've learned are needed to get some old records to convert, creating all the BENCA files in the new bentest, and setting up the L1 groups.
While we aren't running this conversion as a mimic of live, we are using it to help us figure out timings and division of labor for the fourth - and thus, live - conversion. Todd is going to move her computer into my office for this run to reduce the time we spend wearing out the carpet between our offices and aid communication. If you happen to pass by Murray 105 in the next week or so, don't be surprised to see Todd and I feverishly running conversions with a stopwatch running in the background!
