Copy site data process

You can copy the Factory Track master data from one site (environment) to another using the Export and Import process. This process is used to copy the development setup to production during the implementation process.

You can use the Export Site Data form to extract the data in an XML file from the source environment. Also, the Import Site Data form is used to import the XML file to the specific environment.

The data that is copied comprises of these categories:

  • Technical Master Data: The database table that consists of technical data such as parameters, menus, groups and account authorizations .
  • Factory Track Application Master Data: Includes Factory Track Application Master data such as shifts and employee types that are set up for the Time Track functionality.
  • ERP Application Master Data: Includes the data related to employees, departments and work centers. This data is downloaded from the ERP. The data that is not specified in ERP but collated using the data in ERP, such as Worksets is also exported.
  • User Data: Includes user account information that is stored in the site.
