Migrating from Wauton Samuel

When migrating to Arbor a member of our onboarding team will be in touch to confirm key dates, for example, your migration date. Please do not upload us your back up data until the agreed migration date.

Please note the following can vary for a GroupCall API migrator, we are working on adding the GroupCall Migrator specifications to this guide. If you need to raise any data discrepancies post migration please contact Arbor support or your dedicated partner and we will be advised of the next steps.

1. Generate a backup

Locate a backup file. This will be on either the school's main computer or server/shared drive.

The file is saved as WSData.mdb.

2. Upload your backup

Following your scheduled kick-off call, your Arbor contact will have sent you a secure link where you can upload your backup file to us securely. If you don’t have the link please contact us.

3. Wait for further instructions

As soon as the backup is uploaded via the secure portal, Arbor will check the file to make sure it's correct. When the checks are complete, we will start migrating your data.
We start the migration process as soon as the backup is received; this can take up to 5 working days.
 
As soon as your new Arbor MIS is ready, we will send your SLT a welcome email with confirmation your migration is complete and instructions on how to log in to your site.
