Deliverables after Data Mapping Phase of a Migration Project

Hi

I wanted to know from experts whether they can suggest any other deliverables apart from ones listed which should come out as part of Data Mapping phase of a data migration project

1) Field Level Mapping Document(including gaps identified and decisions)
2) Migration Approach Document
3) FS-Staging Area Development

Also do share inputs on how should a field level data mapping activty kick off..whats the ideal step by step way to do this exercise

To my opinion, a very important deliverable is one that match every entity of the migrated and imported structures stating whose keys and rules (Merging rules may apply) are used to match them.

Although, most of the times I try a scenario where I switched from an old app to a new one slowly using bi-directional interfaces that allows for an easy roll-out of my new app. I hate the "big bang" way as it is very tough to handle the mandatory change mgmt. In fact, you can not big bang for more than a few thousands users otherwise your primary trained users would have been trained 2 years ago...
