    Default Importing customer datails into 9.0.1.3

    We are going to upgrade the to 9.0.1.3 from 8.0.1.2.

    I would like to import only the customer details and loging passwords etc..

    Is it possible? would the customer be able to login into their account with the password they already have?


    We are looking to setup the product separatly for the start.


    Thank you

    How about this approach? Upgrade your database to version 9 using the provided upgrade script. Your customers and passwords will be preserved. Then run delete statements on any tables you want to clear out. e.g. delete all rows in Product, ProductVariant, etc. tables

    You could do some kind of custom import. However, the way we typically work is we'll take a snapshot of the live database at a point in time. We'll script any subsequent database changes including AppConfig and StringResource changes. Before go-live we'll take a final copy of the live database and apply our script.

    It's not clear from your post exactly what you're trying to accomplish but hopefully this helps.
