Loading Data into the Directory
This section provides an overview of how to load the directory and discusses how to load the directory with PeopleSoft data.
Use the Directory Load process when no existing data is in the directory. The process overwrites any data in the directory.
If you have data in your directory, use the Directory Audit process instead of the Directory Load process. The audit process compares the PeopleSoft data to your existing directory data and enables you to review and resolve any possible conflicts.
Note: For PeopleSoft Human Capital Management (HCM) customers only, an alternative process named DSMAPINPUT FullSync is available that you can use in place of the Directory Load process. This new process does not replace the Directory Load process; it is provided as an alternative to load the data if performance becomes an issue.
See PeopleSoft HCM: Application Fundamentals
Use the Directory Load page (EO_RUNCTL_DS_LOAD) to load directories with PeopleSoft data.
