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 generally used to copy the development setup to production during the implementation process. The Export Site Data form is used to extract the data to an XML file from the source environment. The Import Site Data form is used to import this XML file into the destination 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, account authorizations, and so on.
  • Factory Track Application Master Data: Includes Factory Track Application Master data such as shifts, employee types, and so on, which is set up primarily for the Time Track module.
  • ERP Application Master Data: Includes the data related to employees, departments, work centers, and so on. 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.
