I was migrating my multiple stores, but customer IDs were not preserved. Why?

Unfortunately, during multi-store migrations on Magento, OpenCart, and PrestaShop, the following additional options are not available:

  • Preserve customer IDs on the Target Store
  • Preserve order IDs on the Target Store
  • Preserve product IDs on the Target Store
  • Preserve category IDs on the Target Store

This is why your customer IDs, along with these other entity IDs, weren’t carried over during your multi-store migration.

One exception: for Magento multi-store migrations specifically, the “Preserve order IDs on the Target store” option is available, even though the other three ID-preservation options are not.

If you have other questions or inquiries, please contact our Support Agents via live chat or email us at [email protected].
