Log onto a workstation or to the deployment environment on the deployment server.
From the Advanced Operations (GH9611) menu, select Specification Merge Selection (P98401).
On Specification Merge Selection, complete these fields:
Location
Type the name of the deployment server that contains the central objects specifications.
Path Code
Type the name of the associated path code (prototype or development).
On the QBE line, type C in the Mod Flag field to list the changed objects, then click Find.
For each object that appears in the grid, verify that the Mod Flag field is set to C, and the Mrg Opt field is set to 1 (merge), which ensures that the modifications are merged when the specification merges run during the update workbenches.
Do not set the Mrg Opt field to 1 unless you want objects merged or saved.
When you finish reviewing or modifying the records, click Close.
To verify the accuracy of modifications, some additional queries are strongly recommended to avoid missing any modified objects. For example, SY = 55 - 59.
