Prerequisites

Before you use the table conversion process, ensure that you:

• Set up a data source and environment for any foreign tables from which you might be importing data.

  See Preparing Foreign Tables for Table Conversion.

• Create a joined table business view if you are converting data from multiple tables.

  See "Table Joins" in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Tools Business View Design Guide.

• Create a business function to perform validation if you want the data items within a table to validate against the data dictionary as part of the conversion process.

  The Table Conversion tool does not provide automatic data dictionary validation for inputs or outputs.

  See "Using Business Functions" in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Tools APIs and Business Functions Guide.
