Have you checked this article Migrating from Microsoft SQL Server and Access to MySQL[^].

Could you please help me to get an idea of this


If you want to create a tool, one way is that:
- you get the schema information from MSSQL and create ddl scripts using MySQL syntax (or execute ddl against MySQL)
- you dump the data from MSSQL and import it to MySQL

If you need, there are several tools to use. For example, you can use SSIS in MSSQL and transfer data with it also bcp can be used to dump the data in MSSQL. Or you can do everything in code (depending on your needs).

Do I need to use transaction


Well, since this is a conversion tool it's not necessary since you can always start again from the 'beginning'. Just take care that you don't have to do everything again. For example, if you have imported data to 100 tables and then table 101 fails, you just delete that table's contents and start loading it again.

How to avoid foreigh key conflicts


First load data and after that create foreign keys.

The need to optimize rises from a bad design.My articles[^]
