Hi List,
I always considered a GET in OWM a relative safe action. Not so for UDCs.
Here´s what happended.
A programmer was logged into PY9 and did a Get on an entire project. This project contained a UDC. The activity rules for UDCs say to copy from "Control Tables - Test" to "local". But "local" for UDCs seems to be the place where UDCs are (OCM) in PY9, that is "Control Tables - CRP". So the OMW copied the UDC in question from "Control Tables - Test" to "Control Tables - CRP", which did a lot of damage. I repeated the same situation as a test and it happended again. In other words, a Get does actually PROMOTE UDCs from one environment to the other.
Has anybody seen this before?
Thanks, Gerd
