Data Exchange

Initiating Import and Export Processes

Data to be exported with the Data Exchange module must be selected with the Edit > Replication function. Selected data objects are added to the EER "Send To" mask with the status W ("wait for replication").
 

The import and export of files can be initiated with the menu options of the Manager menu or by means of a batch process.

Data import or export processes which are not executed with a batch process must be initiated interactively with a menu option. To initiate a data export process, select Manager > Tools > Replication > Data Exchange (EER) > Replicate data > Export Process.

To initiate a data import process, select Manager > Tools > Replication > Data Exchange (EER) > Replicate data > Import Process.

The data is now exported or imported.

Once a record has been sent, its status is altered to S ("sent"). A receipt file is generated and evaluated for data that is successfully received at the target site. Status entries of successfully received files are deleted. The status of unsuccessful export processes is changed to A ("again") and the record is exported once again when a new export process is initiated.
