You can export a plan design to a file and then import the data into another database instance. Use this feature to transfer plan design data between your test and production environments.

Use the Submit Request window.

   To export a plan design to a file:

1. Select Plan Design Copy - Export in the Name field.

2. Enter the Parameters field to open the parameters window.

3. In the Data File field, enter the absolute directory path and file name in your applications environment to which you want to export your plan design data.

   If you do not enter the full directory path, the application writes the export file to the location specified in the environment variables APPLCSF/APPLLOG.

4. Enter a Display Name for this plan design data.

   The display name appears in the list of processes when you import the plan design back into Oracle HRMS.

5. Enter the Effective Date of the plan design data that you want to export.

6. Choose the OK button.

7. Complete the batch process request and choose Submit.

   You can now run the import process to import the plan design data into a new database instance.
