Migrating BIP Definitions

The following definition types can be added to projects in Application Designer:

  • BIP Data Source Definitions

  • BIP File Definitions

  • BIP Report Definitions

  • BIP Template Definitions

If the data source for the BIP report is PS Query or Connected Query, then the query or connected query definition should also be included in the project.

Note: Because BI Publisher is based on managed objects, all updates to your data need to be performed using the PeopleSoft BI Publisher Pure Internet Architecture pages, PeopleSoft Application Designer, or BI Publisher PeopleCode APIs.

Note: As with other PeopleTools-delivered features, BI Publisher for PeopleSoft Enterprise uses managed object functionality, and you cannot use the switching feature of multilanguage data entry. You can populate Related Language tables by signing in and establishing a different session language. Then you can populate the Related Language table for that session.
