Or, if the existing items have not been changed, the error can be disregarded because the rest of the migration will complete successfully. |
204168 |
·When migrating items with versions from an Issue Tracking list the version numbers are not preserved. While all of the versions and metadata are migrated, the version numbers are slightly off. NOTE: This is due to a current bug in the Import Pipeline. |

WORKAROUND: Use the Import Pipeline.
|
232176 |
·Map missing user Option is not updating metadata for Member list of Community Site when mapping multiple source users to a single target on Community Sites. NOTE: Should multiple source users be mapped to a single target user when migrating a Community Site, the metadata values of that user in the target Member List will not concatenate the total metadata values from the source. This will only reflect the user with the most recent migration. |
233345 |
·Metadata will always get copied with Member List with Community Sites. NOTE: When migrating ONLY the members list from a source Community Site to the target, the metadata for the list is set (even if the relevant Discussion list is not migrated). This is a narrow scenario. The workaround is to migrate the Member List as part of a larger migration. WORKAROUND: migrate the Member List as part of a larger migration. |
233278 |

179750 |
·Permissions for items in an Access Request list are duplicated when running a Paste Site > All Site Content migration for the second time. WORKAROUND: When running a Paste All Content migration, set the Migration Mode tab to use the Custom Copy option with the Preserve existing checkbox selected, instead of using the Full Copy option. |

General List, Folder, and Item Migration
Description |
Issue ID |
---|---|
·Content Matrix Jobs get inconsistently stuck in the "copying document" action for migrating documents and document libraries. NOTE: This is typically caused by a corruption in the document itself. If you try to manually upload the same file to the new SharePoint environment, you will also see a delay in the upload. For Content Matrix, it looks like the migration job is stuck but the job is actually waiting for SharePoint to respond before continuing the rest of the migration. |
245657 |
·When trying to migrate a folder with the Copying Folder option, the message Unable to add folder 'This operation can only be performed on a file' error is returned. NOTE: This is an issue with "_files" which are special folders in SharePoint. These types of folders get created when you export an HTML page using IE. IE will save all the dependent files in a "_files" folder. If the user then uploads the HTML page to SP, IE will also automatically pick up the dependent files in the _files folder. These folders become hidden and you cannot access the files via the SharePoint OM calls. |
171550 |
·'Copy Folder Permissions' is disabled in the List Content Options when copying/pasting a custom SharePoint 2007 list via the Paste List Action. WORKAROUND: §Run the migration using the Copy/Paste Site action. OR §Run a separate permissions copy action after the "Paste List" action has been completed. |
181170 |
List item versions created before the approved version are missing after migration from 2010 using a Database connection to 2013 using a local object model (OM) or client side object model (CSOM) WORKAROUND: Use an OM or MEWS connection for the source. |
176588 |
·When migrating from SharePoint 2007 (using the MEWS connection) into SharePoint 2013/2016 (MEWS or CSOM connections) or SharePoint Online (SPO) there are some cases where version metadata values can be lost. This mainly seems to occur when the items/documents are using a custom content type and have versions. WORKAROUND: Ensure that the custom content type that is used on the exists on the target before the item/document migration has been run. (You may also need to select the 'Apply new content type during copy' option in the in the job configuration.) |
181383 |
·Custom List Forms created in SharePoint Designer are not being migrated on list or site copy when using a database connection. WORKAROUND: Use an OM or MEWS connection. |
179625 |
·Document versions fail to migrate when author/editor are not mapped (DB to tenant). NOTE: The user accounts that populate the 'Created By' and 'Modified By' fields for document versions must be mapped to the appropriate target SPO user accounts in order to migrate these values correctly. If the user accounts are not mapped to the target, the values will not be preserved. |

Task List Migration
Description |
Issue ID |
---|---|
·Unable to migrate a Task list from SharePoint Online (SPO) to SP 2013 when a child Task has an earlier ID than the parent Task. NOTE: While not directly restricted to SPO > SP 2013 migration, the issue is that in the task list there is a Parent Task that has a higher ID then its child Task. This isnt possible through the normal SharePoint UI and is the result of either a modification or a custom template change. For example, If the parent Task has an ID value of 7 but the child Task has a ID value of 4. The parent typically needs to exist before the child, so users should never be able to create this scenario without direct modification. When a migration of Tasks in this state occurs it returns the error message: |
194778 |
·After migrating a SP 2010 Tasks list to SP 2013, users are unable to select the Task list in the drop down for Timeline Web Parts. NOTE: In SharePoint 2013 there are two types of Tasks lists, and each uses a different Template value. They are: Tasks (template = 107) and TaskWithTimelineHierarchy (Template = 171). In this case the SP 2010 Task list is migrated using the 107 template, but on the target, the users is trying to use the 171 template. WORKAROUND: It is possible to use a Transformer to catch and convert the template type that is being used, so the Task list is added as the TaskWithTimelineHierarchy template instead.

·Wiki Pages and Web Part Pages that have been customized using SharePoint Designer (SPD) are not displaying their Page contents on the target after migration. NOTE: When migrating Wiki Pages, Content Matrix use the WikiField sub-section to migrate content, and for Web Part Pages the Web part zones sub-section is used. Both of these are inside the PlaceHolderMain section of the page. If the PlaceHolderMain section, or the WikiField/Web part zones sub-section(s) are removed from the page during the customization, then Content Matrix will not be able to migrate the page contents to the target. |

512354 |
·Empty MMD Field value in versioned list migrates as non-empty value for all open xml file formats. WORKAROUND: This is due to property promotion behavior in SharePoint for MMD columns. This can be bypassed by checking the option Disable SharePoint Document Parsing under List Content Options. |
124696 |
·Migrations return different results for document migrations with the Managed Metadata and GUID Mapping options enabled, when migrating using the CSOM adapter or the Import Pipeline options on the target connection. NOTE: When migrating Managed Metadata (MMD) over a CSOM connection, SharePoint will return information to Content Matrix if the terms are valid or not. When migrating MMD using the Import Pipeline, SharePoint doesnt have a way to return information on if the terms are valid or not to the container. This means that the logging and end results of migrating MMD using the Import Pipeline or CSOM will look slightly different, and can sometimes result in the terms migrated using the Import Pipeline having a red line under them, indicating that the terms may not be valid. |
