PeopleSoft Data Mover Overview

PeopleSoft Data Mover enables you to:

  • Transfer application data between PeopleSoft databases.

  • Move PeopleSoft databases across operating systems and database platforms.

  • Run Structured Query Language (SQL) statements against any PeopleSoft database, regardless of the underlying operating system or database platform.

  • Control database security and access.

  • Create, edit, and run scripts.

    These scripts may include any combination of SQL commands and PeopleSoft Data Mover commands for exporting and importing data.

Note:

Data in PeopleSoft databases generally can't be transferred directly between major releases using PeopleSoft Data Mover. For example, you can't import data from a PeopleTools 7.x database into a PeopleTools 8.x database.
