Publish Utility

The Publish utility automates the process of copying the contents of an entire table into a remote database or legacy system. Use the utility to synchronize data from an existing system when a new PeopleSoft system is installed. The data is chunked based on the maximum size set for a message. You can control the size, number, and frequency of these data messages by using a series of data publishing rules and:

• Whether to create header and trailer records.

• Where the data comes from.

• Whether to chunk the message.

• Which related languages to publish.

The publishing rules include pages for full table publishing rules, batch publishing rules, record mapping, languages, and batch programs.
