Classic ASP keeps retired machines in the machines table as history (isactive=0); every other stage already filters isactive=1, but the assets hub, metrology, locations and the verify count read machines unfiltered, so ~240 retired units (incl. all G-prefix hostnames and 61 dead metrology PCs that each synthesized a phantom measuring tool) landed as live assets. Add the isactive=1 filter to those four queries. Downstream stages resolve via the id crosswalk, so warranties /comms/relationships/installs for retired machines now drop automatically.
WJ classic-ASP import loader (reference implementation)
This is site-specific reference glue, not product code. It maps West
Jefferson's classic-ASP shopdb / cmmc_usb / wjf_employees schema onto the
maintained, schema-agnostic import contract in docs/IMPORT-API.md.
Every adopting site has its own source database. Nobody else runs this loader. Instead, copy the pattern:
- Point the harness at your source DB(s) (edit
harness.Source). - Write per-entity stages that read your tables and POST to the same
docs/IMPORT-API.mdendpoints withAuthorization: Bearer <admin PAT>andX-Import-Mode: true. - Persist legacy-id -> new-id crosswalks (see
harness.IdMap) so later stages resolve foreign keys and a crashed run resumes.
The import API is the stable contract; loaders are per-site. The mapping itself can be produced with the agent-assisted workflow (point Fable/Opus agents at a source DB + this contract -> they emit the mapping + a loader skeleton).

Prereqs: a fresh target DB built with flask db upgrade + flask plugin upgrade-all + flask seed permissions/settings/reference-data, and the three
source dumps loaded into scratch DBs (shopdb_src, cmmc_usb_src,
wjf_employees_src). See scratchpad/IMPORT-PLAN.md for the full mapping,
resolved decisions, and remaining stages.
Status
Complete - all 15 stages built and verified end-to-end against a fresh scratch
target (zero endpoint errors): reference, employees, catalog, assets
(the hub + machineid->assetid crosswalk), locations, printers,
communications, applications (+ installs), warranties, notifications,
knowledgebase, relationships, subnets, usb, verify.
Last full run: 983 assets (computer 663, machine 76, network 58, measuring-tool 136, printer 50), 24 locations, 415 employees, 850 installs, 461 primary IPs, 464 warranties, 261 notifications, 341 KB, 93 relationships, 37 subnets, 18 USB devices + 232 events. UI spot-check passed (computer list + shop-floor map).
Known follow-ups: general asset locationid is null (no source column outside
printers); the ~146 duplicate machinenumbers are first-wins-skipped by decision.
