Export and Import of Page and Data Access Configuration

You can export page and data access configuration from one environment and import into another environment to complete page and data access configuration more efficiently.

Before You Begin

Before migrating your page and data access setup data, you must export and import all other product setup data.

Learn how to export and import the setup data. For more information, see the Setup Data Export and Import Using an Offering or a Functional Area and Setup Data Export and Import Using Implementation Project chapters of the Using Functional Set up Manager Guide.

What Gets Exported and Imported

Move your page and data access setup data from one environment to another using an implementation project in the Functional Setup Manager. Create the implementation project by selecting the Student Management Security task list, and then create a configuration package file from the implementation project to export and import the setup data.

Alternatively, use the Application Access functional area to export and import only the page and data access setup data. Define page and data access using the Manage Application Access task, which is mapped to the FSM business objects that store those page and data access definitions. Then, using the Application Access functional area inside the Student Management offering, create a configuration package file to easily export and import the setup data.

These business objects help in the packaging of page and data access definitions:
  • Security Role Group
  • Security Role Group Member
  • Application Page Group
  • Application Page Group Member
  • Page Access Role Assignment
  • Role Page Permission
  • Page Access Role Group Assignment
  • Role Group Page Permission
  • Data Security Profile
  • Data Security Profile Field
  • Data Profile Role assignment
  • Role Data Condition
  • Role Data Condition Value
  • Role Data Privilege Grant
  • Data Profile Role Group Assignment
  • Role Group Data Condition
  • Role Group Data Condition Value
  • Role Group Data Privilege Grant

Let's closely examine each business object to know what it contains.
