Upgrading or Copying Related Content Data Using Prior Methodologies

Rather than using Add to Project links and ADS definitions, you can use prior methodologies when your situation warrants their use.

Copying Related Content Data

You can use PeopleSoft Application Designer to create upgrade projects that contain these types of related content data:

• Related Content Definitions (that is, services defined on the Define Related Content Service page)

  Also select the Application Package related definition when the service type of the selected related content service is Application Class.

• Related Content Services (that is, service assignments made through the Manage Related Content Service menu item).

  • Always select the Related Content Configurations related definitions.

  • Also select the Related Content Layouts related definitions when the service was added to or deleted from a menu, or when the menu order was changed.

You can save these projects to files or copy them directly to other PeopleSoft databases.

See Application Designer Developer’s Guide: Inserting Definitions Into Projects.
