Transporting Data Objects
This chapter describes how to invoke the transport and then resolve any discrepancies in these topics:
Overview
When object differences have been resolved using mapping rules, data objects can be easily transported. For Jobs, if
some differences between the data objects still occur during the transport process, these differences can be resolved
on-the-fly via the Interactive Job Definition Mapping dialog.

Warning:
Changing the default Effective Date (current date) from the current date while transporting job groups may
cause severe disruptions in the production schedule. Do not modify the Effective Date option to resolve this issue.
Instead, use one of two methods to transport a job group with a future effective date. Either disable the job group
and then transport it with the default Effective Date (current date) or select the Disable Copy and No Compile
options in the Configuration Options dialog before transporting job groups. After the job group transport is
complete, enable the job group and schedule it as needed.

The Transport Process
Once an object’s referenced data objects have been optionally mapped between the designated source and destination,
you can begin the transport process for that object. After selecting the data objects to be transported, you can start the
transport between the source and destination in one of four ways:
you can begin the transport process for that object. After selecting the data objects to be transported, you can start the
transport between the source and destination in one of four ways:
Click the Start Transfer button on the toolbar.
Select the Start Transfer option in the Transport main menu.
For Jobs, drag and drop a single selected data object (or job group) from the Source side to job group on the
Destination side.
Destination side.
Press the F9 key
Note:
When dragging and dropping job/job groups to the Destination side, be careful that you do place them in the
intended location. Verify that you are not inadvertently placing the items into the wrong job group.
If there are no problems during the data object transport process, an information dialog displays to notify you that the
selected number of data objects was successfully transported to the destination
