Prepare to Migrate
The Noah ES Data Migrator tool will copy and securely transfer data to Noah ESThe Migrator tool uses nhax files exported from Noah System, you can have one file or several files from different computers and different offices
The export MUST come from Noah version 4.13
Before exporting data from Noah 4.13, check the setting for patient numbering in the Noah Console under Server Administration, Patient Numbering Tool. The default setting in Noah ES is automatic patient numbering. If you are using manual patient numbering in Noah System, change the patient numbering in Noah ES to Manual BEFORE migrating data to Noah ES. The setting for patient numbering is found in the Noah ES Portal under Settings, Patient Numbering.
For locations with large Noah databases, you will be warned when exporting if you are trying to export more that 5000 patient records. If you have more than 5000 patient records, break down the export to multiple enhax files where each export is under 5000 records. More information is found here:
When you export the files from Noah System, choose the secure option of encrypting with a password, the same password should be used for each export that will be moved to the Noah ES account
