Object Configuration Manager

The Object Configuration Manager (OCM) program (P986110) is a tool that configures distributed processing and distributed data at runtime without requiring programming. Using the Object Map table, the OCM points to the correct data, batch process, or business function for a given environment and user. The OCM is the control center for the runtime architecture. EnterpriseOne always uses the OCM to locate the data and platform needed to execute the distributed logic.

Every environment has an associated set of OCM mappings that indicate the distributed data and distributed processing locations for that environment.

This equation represents the relationship among the OCM, a path code, and an environment:

ENVIRONMENT = PATH CODE + OCM MAPPINGS

Where:

Path Code = what directory contains the object being processed

OCM mappings = (what database stores the data) + (where should the logic object execute)
