Manage Unlicensed Users in CRM Using KingswaySoft
While migrating from CRM to CRM, or any other Source system to CRM, in an ETL, records will need to be associated with users. And since the Source and Target Systems are different, there may not be a guarantee that some users may still exist in the organization. And in such cases, such users become either unlicensed, or stub users. These type of users have restrictions when it comes to being set as an owner of records, and in this blog post, we will see how this can be handled efficiently.

In this blog post, we will discuss this scenario and how to work with our DES deprecation replacement solution.
