Migration Strategy

Phase 1: Data Preparation

1. Analyze current data: Map existing sector/subtype combinations to new categories
2. Create migration mapping table: Document how each organization will transition
3. Update database schema: Add new categorization fields while keeping legacy fields

Phase 2: Icon System Updates

1. Update icon mapping function: Modify getLucideIconForSubtype() to work with new system
2. Create fallback logic: Ensure backward compatibility during transition
3. Test icon rendering: Verify all combinations display correctly

Phase 3: UI Updates

1. Update filter interfaces: Implement new filtering based on service categories
2. Modify search logic: Support multi-dimensional filtering
3. Update admin interfaces: Allow categorization using new system

Implementation Code Example

// New categorization interface
interface OrganizationCategory {
  primarySector: PrimarySector;
  businessTypes: BusinessType[];
  serviceCategories: ServiceCategory[];
}

// Migration function
function migrateOrganizationCategory(legacySector: string, legacySubtype: string): OrganizationCategory {
  const mapping = LEGACY_TO_NEW_MAPPING[`${legacySector}/${legacySubtype}`];
  return {
    primarySector: mapping.primarySector,
    businessTypes: mapping.businessTypes,
    serviceCategories: mapping.serviceCategories
  };
}

// Updated icon selection logic
function getIconForOrganization(category: OrganizationCategory): LucideIcon {
  // Priority: Service Category > Business Type > Primary Sector
  const serviceCategoryIcon = getServiceCategoryIcon(category.serviceCategories[0]);
  if (serviceCategoryIcon) return serviceCategoryIcon;

  const businessTypeIcon = getBusinessTypeIcon(category.businessTypes[0]);
  if (businessTypeIcon) return businessTypeIcon;

  return getPrimarySectorIcon(category.primarySector);
}

Backward Compatibility

During Migration

• Keep legacy sector/subtype fields in database
• Add new categorization fields alongside existing ones
• Icon function checks new system first, falls back to legacy mapping

Post-Migration

• Legacy fields can be deprecated after full transition
• Update all data entry points to use new categorization
• Clean up legacy mapping code

Testing Checklist

• All current organizations display with appropriate icons
• New categorization fields work correctly
• Filtering by service categories functions properly
• Search results include relevant organizations
• Admin interface supports new categorization
• Performance impact is minimal
• Mobile responsiveness maintained

Rollback Plan

If issues arise during migration:

1. Immediate rollback: Switch back to legacy icon mapping
2. Data preservation: Keep new categorization data for future migration
3. Staged approach: Migrate in smaller batches to isolate issues
4. User communication: Inform users of temporary categorization changes
