Replication - Export Data

Export Data is a feature to export or download data from the replication queue. Data exported then can be manually imported.

Export feature is used when replication setup is down where the configured servers are unable to connect to each other.

Note

  1. Data is to be exported from the branch and imported to the Head Office Server.
  2. The "POS Replication Data Export Process" should be running for the system to export data.
  3. Folder path to export files should be set under Configurations. Flag to set is "REPL.Export.Path".
  4. The exported file naming convention is  {DestinationServer}_{DestinationDatabase}_YYYYMMDDHHMMSS.xml
  5. Once a batch has been exported it cannot be deleted. Delete is only allowed on files that fail validation.
  6. Do not change the name or contents of the exported file.
