Data Migration Workbench

Data Migration Workbench is the interactive user interface used to:

• Define ADS project content.

• Launch copy, compare and validation operations for projects.

• View compare and validation results, and modify the copy options of data sets that will be copied.

Data Migration Workbench shows the current status of a project and prevents inconsistent actions. Once you have defined the ADS project, you can copy the data to a file that can later be compared or copied from file on another PeopleSoft database.

The Data Migration Workbench uses a Project Repository as a place in the file system where project files can be copied to and from. The Project Repository is defined in the data base as a repository name, an associated file path, and one or more areas (sub folders) that can contain project files. The purpose of Project Repository is to avoid manually copying project files from one system to another by promoting common definition of shared file locations and providing better security for administrative control of the places that project files can be copied to.
