Defining Change Packages
There are 4 types of change packages that can be created:
Update Package
The Update Package component is a wizard that will lead you through the process of selecting updates and defining a custom change package for your environment. It provides a wide array of search options for selecting the updates to apply to your environment. It lets you review the details of the changes for each update before creating the change package definition, shows you what has already been applied to your environment, and automatically includes requisite updates based on what you selected and what is already applied to your environment.
Note: Required for Upgrade (RFU) bugs are included in the Upgrade package.
Upgrade Package
The Upgrade Package component is a wizard that will create an upgrade package based on the upgrade path specified. When you select this option 2 change package definitions are created the upgrade package (UPG) and the Required for Upgrade package (RFU).
Tools Delta Package
The Tools Delta Package component is a wizard that is used after a PeopleTools upgrade to create a Tools delta change package that contains attributes or objects that were stripped away when the updates were applied in the old release.
Translation Delta Package
The Translations Delta Package component is a wizard that will lead you through the process of selecting the languages and translation fixes and create a translation delta package.
