Viewing Status Summary

To view the status summary, click Status Summary.

The status summary is a high-level view of the compare results showing the definitions compared and the occurrence of differences. The summary table indicates whether the difference occurred because of additions, modifications, or deletions that were the result of activity at your site, or whether the difference occurred as a result of an addition or modification made by PeopleSoft. This summary can be useful for managers and executives who are scoping and budgeting for an upgrade.

Each of the columns in the status summary indicate the number of items found to differ by definition type. The columns represent the "Source" and "Target" status values set during the compare process. You can click on any of the cell values to view the items filtered for each particular status result. You can also click the value in the Definition Type column to view further status information.

The following table shows how each column in the status summary table equates to the status in the source and target locations.

Field or Control	Description
Customer Added	Source: Absent Target: *Changed or *Unchanged
Customer Modified	Source: Changed or Unchanged Target: *Changed or *Unchanged
Customer Deleted	Source: Absent Target: Changed or Unchanged
PeopleSoft Added	Source: Any Target: Absent
PeopleSoft Modified	Source: Changed or Unchanged Target: Changed or Unchanged

Note:

If you have generated composite reports, two tabs appear for the status summary: Compare Report and Composite Report.

Note:

The compare report values reflect the assumption that the source is the delivered PeopleSoft demonstration database and the target is a customer's production copy of a database.
