Changing User Filtering Configurations

If your customization of SSSE does not involve synchronizing fields from a new table or a new joined table, then no user filtering configuration changes are required.

If your customization of SSSE does involve synchronizing fields from a new table or a new joined table, then the application developer must make sure that the user filtering configuration is adequate for detecting data changes in any new fields that SSSE will synchronize. For more information about the user filtering process, see About SSSE User Filtering.

This task is a step in Process of Customizing SSSE.

The following procedure briefly describes how to change the user filtering configuration to detect changes made in new fields to be synchronized.

To change the SSSE user filtering configuration

1. Make sure that the table that contains the field to be synchronized has a DB_LAST_UPD column that records the true database update time.
2. Generate a script to populate the DB_LAST_UPD column when data in the table changes.
3. Modify an existing user filtering business component or create a new user filtering business component to include the DB_LAST_UPD column.
4. Navigate to the Administration - PIM Server Integration screen, Configuration, and then the PIM Server Integration Configuration view.
5. In the PIM Server Integration Configuration list, select User Filter.
6. In the Configuration Parameters list, perform one of the following actions:
   • For an existing user filtering business component, select the record where Parameter is set to the Business Component name, and add any new DB_LAST_UPD column to the Value field, using commas to separate multiple values.
   • For a new user filtering business component, click New and complete the fields in the new record, as shown in the following table.

     Field	Comments
     Section	Enter the name of the Business Object for the new Business Component.
     Parameter	Enter the name of the new Business Component.
     Value	Enter DB_LAST_UPD.
