    Yes, you have to manually migrate data. There is no tool for migrating since big changes have been done.
    Afterall, you have to migrate five or so tables. I prepared code in excel (old fileds, new fileds, and then paste result in C/SIDE). It took few hours to do that.
    Major problem were open orders. So to avoid problems, post and finish as much as possible and manualy reenter open orders (in case of few dozen open orders).

    First, change the migration tool not to check if any data is in "old" tables.
    Then import old tables in new version. Perhaps you should delete some code on triggers and some variables. All you need is to have data in that table.
    Upgrade database.
    Run a report to transfer history to new tables.
    Delete old data and tables (forms, reports etc. to make sure you can't reference to old objects).
