Administrators

Administrators with register type S or A (Site administrator or Administrators, respectively) that also belongs to an access group must have their profile type set to B (Business user).

This is because all future administrators created in Organization Administration Console will have profile type B. This can be done with the following SQL:

update users set profiletype='B' where registertype in ('A','S')

and users_id in (select users_id from accmbrgrp)

Refer to Migration Guide for Windows 2000 and Windows 2003 - migrating from WebSphere Commerce Suite V5.1 for more information on the details regarding role migration.

The recommended approach to the roles, that are not included in WebSphere Commerce V5.6, is to replace them with roles which have the same function.

If a role is found by the migration script, and not found in WebSphere Commerce V5.6, it is migrated as a user-defined role.

Our application had two users with the following roles which needed to be changed:

1.Order Clerk

2.Merchandising Manager
