When Unifier is the source provider in a master data business flow, there are no parameters to set for any of the delivered business flows.
When Unifier is the destination provider in a master data business flow, set values and attributes for the following parameters:
- Business Process Name
Use this setting to enter the name of the business process to which the data should be associated in Unifier. This information is used in the Save step of the flow.
- Business Process Detail Tab Name
Use this setting to enter the Detail tab name of the business process to which the data should be associated in Unifier. This information is used in the Save step of the flow.
- Line Item Identifier
Use this setting only when you need to update line items. Enter the name of the data element (not label) that is to be updated in the Detail tab of the business process. This information is used in the Save step of the flow.
- Delete data that no longer exists in the source application?
Use this setting to determine whether data that no longer exists in the source application is to be deleted in the destination application. This parameter must be used in conjunction with the Compare flag selected in the Business Flow wizard.
Note: When you run a project data flow, it will delete only project level data in a business flow, but not the master data. This will prevent you from deleting master data elements such as resources, roles etc., that may be used in another project. However, if used in a master data flow, it will delete all relevant objects and fields.
- Only delete data that has been linked previously with the source application?
To use this parameter, you must also select the parameter, Delete data that no longer exists in the source application? During a synchronization, when the data is compared between the source and the destination application, data that has been added only in the destination application will not be deleted. However, if you deleted source data that was previously synced in the destination application, it will also be deleted from the destination application.
