Merging ER in the Entire Application

The Auto Merge Application command resides under the Edit menu. It lets you copy ER lines from all events in the source application to the corresponding events in the target application. It works like the Copy All command, but it works on all events at once. The command will not delete lines from target ER that do not exist in the source location. The command also attempts to avoid copying lines that would result in invalid ER.

As with any JD Edwards ER Compare command, you might create invalid ER by using the Auto Merge Application command. As of version 8.98, JD Edwards ER Compare attempts to protect you from this by disabling unsafe operations. For example, JD Edwards ER Compare prevents the accidental creation of references to undefined ER variables. However, it does not recognize references to other kinds of undefined objects. Follow the steps recommended earlier to ensure that your ER remains valid.

Regardless of how you modify the ER, you should validate event rules prior to saving. This command is found under the File menu. If any ER violations occur, delete the offending lines and use Edit Event Rules to reenter them after you have exited JD Edwards ER Compare.
