Change FileNames in Table Conversion or Business View in UBE

By Deepesh M Divakaran, on July 1st, 2011

Many a times we need to change the Business view of a Report/UBE, which requires re-validating the event rules code. Worse, if you had to change the input file name in a Table Conversion? You will have to actually re-write the whole code.

Usually, for such table conversions, what we do is write wrapper UBE’s which would rename the input file to the path/file name of the table conversion, and then trigger the TC to run. All these options take huge amount . . . → Read More: Change FileNames in Table Conversion or Business View in UBE

The path’s to the environment install directory will be entirely different in each case.

Typically for an JDE EnterpriseOne Windows based Local installation will have path – “C:\Exxx\DVxxx\” or “C:\Bxxxx\PDxxxx\”,
For UNIX/Linux it may be – “/usg/filespace/exxx/dvxxx/” etc.
