    you may use SQL Server's Business Intelligence Tool . You may create SSIS Package to move data from one source to destination.

    What ever the database type or table types, always think about compatibility. There are also TOOLS out there might be useful (with payment or free) in some ways they are not compatible with your created system made from scratch by your own hands.

    The best method is to create a script or program to REGENERATE the SQL scripts command from the MSSQL application database. Your aim is to REGENERATE DATA SQL COMMANDS into POSTGRESQL.
    Create a file called. postgresql_new.sql <--- text file, contains sql commands.


    Execute the sql file command into the postgresql manually and wait for it. If there is COMMAND LINE tool available in it then use it. It is very useful if you have very large data without worrying about TIME LIMITATION.

    Trust me, this really works. bwahahahahaha
