Exporting Individual Object Definitions
Only top-level object types—the object types that are visible in the Object List Editor when you click an object type in the Types tab of the Object Explorer—can be exported. Child object definitions are exported and imported along with their parents.
To export individual object definitions
- In the Object Explorer, navigate to the object type of the object you want to export.
- In the Object List Editor, select the object or objects you want to archive.
- Select Tools > Add To Archive from the menu bar.
The Export to Archive File dialog box appears.
Status messages appear showing which child object definitions are being included. When the process completes, the selected top-level object definition or definitions appear in the Objects to Archive list table in the Export to Archive File dialog box.
- If you need to add object definitions of another object type, navigate to that object type in the Object Explorer without closing or saving the Export to Archive File dialog box.
Move the Export to Archive File dialog box out of the way, if necessary.
- If you want to remove an object definition from the list, select it and press DEL.
- When you are finished adding object definitions to the list, enter in the Archive File box the path and filename of the archive file to create. Alternatively, you can browse to an existing archive file using the Browse button and the resulting Save As dialog box.
- Click Save. If a file of this name and location already exists, you are prompted to overwrite it or cancel.
Figure 238 shows the Account Business Component ready to be exported.
