Upgrade Custom Applications

Migrate your existing custom target application to data export to file applications.

Use the Upgrade Custom Applications option to migrate your existing custom target application to data export to file applications. The migration converts existing file format from the custom target application to the file formats used in the data export to file option and retains all the existing setup. When the custom target application has been converted, you can run same data rule as before. You can run the migration for one custom application or all.

Before using this option, reconcile the differences in the file formats. For example, the header row in the Data Export to File contains the name of the dimension and not UD1, UD2 etc.

For more information about the Data Export to File option, see Registering a Data Export File Application.
