Retrofitting Custom Modifications for a Report

To retrofit custom modifications for a report:

1. From OMW, use Report Design Aid (RDA) to re-create all custom report objects in the target UBE (universal batch engine).

2. Within RDA, select Edit and Event Rules.

   This option enables you to use EditER to reenter all ER statements that reference custom objects other than custom ER variables.

3. Save your work.

4. Use the JD Edwards ER Compare tool (ER Compare button in OMW) to compare the updated local specifications (target) with the original, customized (source) specifications.

5. Copy ER variables and then ER statements from source to target.

   Do not copy any statements that reference objects that existed only in the source (customized) environment. Those should have been created in step 2.

6. Validate the resulting ER. Save and exit JD Edwards ER Compare.

7. When you finish retrofitting and testing the modifications, check them back in and rebuild the package.

8. Test and fix the modifications, and then rebuild and redeploy the corrected package. Repeat this step until all the modifications are functioning properly.
