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 LN release to a previous/next LN release (Baan5.0 or Baan IV)
  • Make backups of your DEM data
Note

Keep in mind that 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.

Use the Import Version Dump (tgbrg1245m000) session to import data that is exported with the current session.
