Export Version Dump (tgbrg1235m000)

Use this session to export version data to an ASCII file.

You can use the ASCII file for these purposes:

  • Copy data from one system or company to another system or company.
  • Translate descriptions and texts.
  • Convert data from the current Infor LN release to a previous release ( Baan5.0 or BaanIVc) or next release.
  • Create backups of your DEM data.

All data in the selected version that falls within the selection parameters will be exported. Select the Include Previous Versions check box to export data from versions from which the version you select is derived.

Remarque

When you export a range of business processes, the components and corresponding application that are used within the business processes are not exported. Use the Export Component Model Data (tgbrg5257m000) session to accomplish that.

This table lists the options you can use when you export a version dump:
