Configuration Package with Custom User Attributes (Exporting)

Even if the configuration package components have references to custom user attributes, as an administrator you can export (and import to the destination environment) a configuration package that includes all types of custom user attributes without the need to include the source user attribute design in the configuration package. This includes shell data pickers, BP data pickers, and so forth.

Note: The export process applies to both the configuration packages and the add-on configuration packages.

The following lists the referenced user attributes in a component package that can be imported to the destination environment:

Data elements that are data pickers and shell pickers and do not exist in the destination server.
Data elements that are user data pickers and display elements and do not exists in the destination server.
Data elements that are data pickers, shell pickers, along with referenced data sources and display elements that exist in the destination.
Data elements that are data pickers, shell pickers, and the referenced data sources that do not exist in the destination.
Note: If the custom user attribute is a user data picker, then both the data picker element and its associated display element will be included in the configuration package.

Unifier will display messages if custom user attributes such as data pickers are referenced in the following components of the configuration package:

Workflow setup filtering conditions
User Data Picker query conditions
User Defined Report or Data Cube query conditions
Auto update Status Setup query conditions
Auto populate and reverse auto populate definitions referencing User Data Picker in any design
Any design that has custom user attributes referenced through User Data Picker
