Creating Customization Repository

The customization repository resides on the PUM Source. In order to create the repository, you must first identify all of the customizations that you want to track in the target databases and then upload the customization projects to the PUM Source. The customization projects apply across all your target databases. There are 2 types of customization projects, Managed Objects projects and ADS Managed Objects projects.

Managed Object Customization Project

To create a managed object project:

1. Create a project on the customer database that includes your customizations.

   Note:

   You can create as many customization projects as required.

   The following methods are available to create the customization projects:

   • In Application Designer create a project by manually adding the managed objects you have identified as customizations.

     You can use the UPGCUST project from your last upgrade.

   • Create the project using PJRCUST, using one of theses options:

     • In Change Assistant use the step Create Customization Project to create the project.

       See Step Types

     • Create the project using the command line PJRCUST.

       See Lifecycle Management Guide: Creating Customization Project Using the Command Line

     Important:

     Your target database must be on PeopleTools 8.55 or above to use PJRCUST.

   • Create the customization project in Change Assistant using the Create New Database Project option in Upload Customer Data to Image.

2. (Optional) Copy the customization project to file.

   Note:

   PUM Automatic Merge only supports the project from database.

3. Use Change Assistant to upload the customer data to PUM Source.

4. Review the upload on the PUM Source.

5. Run the Customization Calculation on the PUM Source.
