possible changes needed to mapped IDs at Cutover | Comments from Feb. 18 and later at: https://3.basecamp.com/3765443/buckets/23965261/messages/4562399045#__recording_4655064532. Andrea Bainbridge (Unlicensed), Let’s stick with the existing ID mapping. We definitely need UNIV_ID = USER ALT_ID and ADDL_ID_1 = USER_ADDR1.EMAIL, but the other values maybe be useful too, for accounts that we bring over that aren’t part of our SIS load. I don’t think it can hurt. College
