Why each option
For a phased migration of master data and opening balances from AX 2012 R3 to Dynamics 365 Finance, the Data Import/Export Framework is the recommended tool.
The Data Import/Export Framework (DIXF) is the native Dynamics 365 Finance tool designed specifically for structured data migration using configurable data entities that map source fields to target tables. It supports a phased approach by allowing master data and financial opening balances to be imported incrementally with staging, validation, and error correction at each phase.
The Microsoft Dynamics AX Intelligent Data Management Framework (IDMF) is a database health monitoring and archiving utility used to analyze and purge aging transaction data, not to migrate master data or opening balances to a new system.
Usage profiler is a performance diagnostics tool that records user activity and system load patterns to support performance analysis, not data migration between environments.
Business process modeler is an LCS tool for documenting and mapping business processes against standard industry templates, and has no data migration capability.
