Reviewing Object History (Release 9.2.1)

When you perform and action on an object through OMW or when package build creates a modification, OMW will create history records. You can export different versions of objects to restore and compare using ER Compare. You use the Work with Repository History (P98780H) application to manage the object history records. You can track the history of the following objects:

  • Business Function

  • Table

  • Business View

  • Batch Application

  • Interactive Application

  • User Defined Objects

JD Edwards EnterpriseOne utilizes the following two central object tables for object history:.

  • Repository (F98780R)

  • History (F98780H)

The central object archive (.par) files are maintained in the Repository (F98700R) table. A copy of each archive file is inserted into the History (F98700H) table for object comparison, exporting, and restoring.

To access the Work with Repository History application:

  1. Enter P98780H in the Fast Path

  2. Click Find

You filter search results by entering criteria for Object Name, Project Name, Path code, or a date range. You can add comments by selecting an object history record and entering text in the comment field.

You export history records in-order to compare with a different version of the object.

To export a history record:

  1. Enter P98780H in the Fast Path

  2. Click Find

  3. Select a history record

  4. Click Export form the Row menu

Exporting a history record allows you to save a .par file of the object. The .par file can be used for comparing different versions of the object and restoring to the same or different pathcode.
