Can I use the same Oracle Repository for the new FDM App

JaiMay 9 2011 — edited May 9 2011
Hi All,
I have to uninstall FDM and install and re-configure FDM again and then restore FDM Apps present previously.

For this, Can I resue the same Oracle Repository for restoring the FDM app on newly installed instance.

As far as I know, I need to take the backup of that repository and then drop the Repository and create again and use it for new application

Please suggest, are there any other ways to do this/..

thanks in advance

J

Yes, you can do this. you need to create empty batch files with the name in the correct format (as with the normal flat file batch process). Generally i expect you would know the location and Category to be used in creating the empty file name so these could be hard-coded. the issue is the Period to be used, and there are various options. If you are using the 'Global' POV setting then you could use the global period setting, which would have to updated each period by the administrator. Another option might be to maintain a seperate file with the current period held in it. Another option might be to utilise a filed on the locaiton which again would need maintaining. Another option might be that the period is held in the SQL table holding the data you are importing so you could do a read of the table first to get the period
