I've got a problem that appears to be related to my global tables. In my DEV pathcode my Receiving App (P4312) works fine. In my CRPB733 pathcode, receiving does not update the Quant Open or the Cardex. I used the OW Cross Reference Facility to determine all of the objects used by this app and Object Transferred every last one of them (all object types) from DEV to CRP. I rebuilt a full package, deployed it, and it still DID NOT work in CRP.
Because it did not look like a code problem and we used the exact same data, I was baffled. I copied spec files over pair by pair (ie GBRSPEC.DDB & .XDB, FDASPEC.DDB & FDASPEC.XDB, etc.) and a pair at a time from the DEVB733 pathcode to the CRPB733 pathcode. I COPIED GLBLTBL.DDB & .XDB from DEV to CRP AND IT FINALLY WORKED.
WHAT I HAVE ALREADY TRIED:
1. Deleting GLOBAL TABLES: DID NOT WORK!
2. Deleting Data Dictionary: DID NOT WORK!
3. Object Xfered Table Objects & Data Structures: DID NOT WORK!
4. Contacted Support Line: Wha'dya expect?
MY QUESTION IS:
1. What's in those damn global tables spec files anyway? In your response you cannot use the term specs or tables, ie USE PLAIN WORDS. What do these do and why?
2. What in global tables would cause an app to work in one environment but not another given that I am just using one Data dictionary?
