Understanding Object Configuration Management Reports
This chapter provides and overview of Oracle's JD Edwards Object Configuration Management reports and discusses how to:
Run the Job Master Deletion by Days Old report

Understanding Object Configuration Management Reports
This section provides an overview of Object Configuration Management reports and discusses how to use a batch application to set processing options for running the reports.
Understanding Object Configuration Management Reports
Batch Versions provide batch processes that produce reports that helps you track your object mappings.
Some of these reports are called when you select that report from the Oracle JD Edwards EnterpriseOne menu while other reports are called from a batch application. Although the result is the same, you set processing options and data selection differently for a batch process than for a report called from a batch application.
Any data selection for a report must be entered for the specific report and not from the batch application. When you finish entering processing options and data selection, if any, you can run the report from the batch application.

Running Job Master Deletion by Days Old Report
This section lists the prerequisites and discusses how to set up and run the Job Master Deletion by Days Old report.
Understanding the Job Master Deletion by Days Old Report
This batch application lets you produce a report listing obsolete print jobs submitted to servers. You have the option of generating the report only, or generating the report and then deleting obsolete records from the Job Control Status Master table (F986110).
This batch application is launched by a report driver. Enter any data selection from the batch application, but enter processing options from the report driver (R9861101), not from the actual application (R9861102).
Prerequisites
Set up processing options for the report from Batch Versions, not from the actual report.

In Solution Explorer, navigate to Report Management, Report Management Advanced and Technical Operations, Job Master Deletion by Days Old Report(P98305). |
Used to produce a report listing obsolete print jobs submitted to servers. |
Running the Job Master Deletion by Days Old Report
Access the Work With Batch Versions - Available Versions form.
|
Versions |
A user-defined set of specifications that control how applications and reports run. You use versions to group and save a set of user-defined processing option values and data selection and sequencing options. Interactive versions are associated with batch jobs or reports. To run a batch process, you must choose a version. |
|
Version Title |
A description of the version that appears next to the version number. The version title is different from the report title. This field should describe the use of a version. For example, an application for generating pick slips might have a version called Pick Slips - Accounting and another version called Pick Slips - Inventory Management. |
|
User |
Identifies the use ID of the user who last modified the application or version. |
|
Last Modified |
Indicates the last time an application or version was modified by the specified user. |
|
Security |
This field allows you to restrict user access for a report version. Values are: 0 - No security. Anyone can design, change processing values, change detail values, check in, check out, install, transfer, copy, delete, or run the version. This is the default when adding a new version. 1 - Medium security. Only the “Last Modified By” user can design, change processing values, change detail values, check in, check out, install, transfer, copy, delete, or run the version. This is how JDE Demo versions are delivered. 2 - Medium to full security. Only the “Last Modified By” user can design, change processing values, change detail values, check in, check out, transfer, delete, or run the version. Anyone can install or copy the version. 3 - Only the “Last Modified By” user can design, change processing values, change detail values, check in, check out, install, transfer, copy, delete, or run the version. 4 - Medium security-extended. Only the “Last Modified By” user can design, change processing values (including runtime processing options and data selection), change detail values, check in, check out, transfer, delete, or run the version. Anyone can install or copy the version. |

Running the Object Configuration Mapping Comparison Report
This section lists prerequisites and discusses how to set up and run the Object Configuration Mapping Comparison Report.
Understanding the Object Configuration Mapping Comparison Report
Run the Object Configuration Comparison report to compare Object Configuration Master tables (F986101) from two different data sources and display the differences between them. For example, you might compare the F986101 table in the system data source to the F986101 table for a given server map data source.

Running the Object Configuration Copy Report
This section lists the prerequisites and discusses how to set up and run the Object Configuration Copy Report.
Understanding the Object Configuration Copy Report
This process copies Object Configuration Manager records from one data source to another and automatically deletes any duplicate records. For example, if you create a new environment by copying an existing one, Object Configuration Manager records are created for the new environment in the system data source.
You use the Object Configuration Copy batch process to copy those records to the appropriate server map data source. After copying the records, use the Object Configuration Global Update program (R986110) to change, at the minimum, any mappings for LOCAL to the appropriate server location.
Prerequisite

OCM Modes
These processing options let you add or delete OCM mappings for all members in the same category rather than adding or deleting them individually.
|
Proof or Final Mode |
Enter 1 to run the report in Proof mode. The report will print and the Object Configuration Manager table will not be updated. Enter 2 to run the program in Final mode. The report will print and the Object Configuration Manager table will be updated. |
|
Add or Delete Mode |
Enter 1 to add OCM mappings for objects in the category or 2 to delete mappings. |
|
Override Mapping |
Enter 1 to delete OCM mappings for objects that already have mappings for the environment and user. Enter 2 or leave this field blank to deactivate but not delete mappings for conflicting OCM records. |
OCM Settings
These processing options enable you to specify whether to add or delete mappings, as well as the appropriate path code, environment, and data source to use.
|
Path Code to use when adding or deleting OCM mappings |
When you enter a path code, mappings are added or deleted for all environments with the path code you enter. You do not need to enter a path code if you entered an environment name in the Environments processing option. If this field is blank, OCM mappings will be added or deleted regardless of the path code. |
|
Environment to use when adding or deleting OCM mappings |
If this field is blank, OCM mappings are added or deleted regardless of the environment. If you entered a path code in the Path Code processing option, that path code is used. If both the Environments and Path Code processing option fields are blank, OCM mappings will be added or deleted for all environments in the Environment Detail table (F00941). |
|
User Class/Role |
If you are deleting OCM mappings and this field is blank, all OCM records will be deleted regardless of the user class or role. If you are adding OCM mappings, you must enter a value in this field. |
|
Data Source |
If you are deleting OCM mappings and this field is blank, all OCM records will be deleted regardless of the data source. If you are adding OCM mappings, you must enter a value in this field. |
