A quick Step by Step guide on how to use the Cloudbridge Bulk Tool
Prerequisites
- Create or import Entities on the Cloud environment, these will need to exist before migrating as they are mapped in the tool
The steps to import can be found here, but it’s important to do this together with someone of our Support Team if they want to import all entities at the same time to ensure that nothing gets created incorrectly.
Engagements will be automatically mapped to entities based on the Operating name/Entity name respectively. If they are not similar, this will need to be done manually. - It’s recommended to migrate the Engagements in groups of max 50 per upload.
You will select one folder in the tool, all Caseware files in this folder and all subfolders will be selected for upload so placing and grouping the WP Engagements on a separate local folder is recommended.
Issues can arise when trying to migrate from a server when the connection is slow. - Only Engagements with a standard fiscal year are possible for migration currently.
Extended fiscal years are not possible to upload through the tool, they will need to be created manually in the cloud.
In an update which will be released in March 2026 this will be possible. - To limit the amount of licenses used in the cloud it’s only necessary to migrate the latest engagement for one client, not necessary to upload old fiscal years (But it's still possible if needed)
- If you want access to the tool, please contact our Support Team at support@caseware.be
