1. Preparation
For Source Store:
Please ensure you have the right permission to upload files into your Source Store
It must not block access from Target Store to the connector.
Source Store can operate normally during migration as it requires a very limited resource for
the process.
For Target Store:
Target Store should be placed in a stable hosting or in local host.
It also must not block connection to Source Store.
Webserver (mostly apache) should have full permission to write on /media folder.
PHP Compatibility: PHP 5.3 or later.
Magento Compatibility: 1.9 or later

2. Setup
After downloading the product zip file from our Store, please extract it into a folder.
The module consists of two main parts: Magento Data Migration Module
(“leCartMigration” folder) and Source Cart Connector (“magento_connector” folder)
2.1 Magento Data Migration Module Setup
Magento Data Migration Module is a Magento Module which acts like a hub at
Magento side to receive data and import it into Magento database. It can be installed
just like all other Magento Modules:
Using your FTP software, place the folder in your Magento /modules folder.
Go to Back Office >> Modules.
Locate the new module in the list, scrolling down if necessary.
In the row for the new module, click Install.

2.2 Source Cart Connector Setup
Extract “magento_connector” into Source Cart root folder. After finished please
make sure Migration Connector can be reached at:
http(s)://yourstore.com/magento_connector/connector.php

You will get a message “Connector Installed” once it is installed properly.
If you have any problem reaching the link please ensure you have htaccess
configured correctly and the file has execution permission
For security, please open connector.php, find this very first line:
define('LECM_TOKEN', '123456');

3. Plugins Setup
 Custom Fields Plugin: help migrate custom fields from Source Store to
Target Magento Store. This is useful in case customers have customized their
store, for example: adding fields to database tables, and also want to migrate
these fields into Magento Store.
