Need to extract the data for Media Object from another environment

[jdepgmmer]

We are using the bsfn B7430040 to extract the information in the media object. I need to run this bsfn in one production environment but have it pull the data from another production environment to update the data. How would I do this?

Hi jdepgmmer,

Is it a one-time or a normal business requirement?

If it is for a one-time action, then simply override the OCM setting of the table for a specific user, who will execute the task.

If it is a normal business requirement, then I found B9800201 "Set Active Data Source" BSFN on XE, which states in its attachment "This function will set the active data source for a given table".
NOTE: I have never used this, but you can make a try with it.

There is an other BSFN - B9800104 "Set Table Data Source" - without attachment at BSFN level.

You can check also:

B9840G - "Copy F00165 records from a source to a target DS"

maybe it fits to your task.

On your 8.10 platform, check the BSFNs, filtering for "*DS*" and "*Data Source*" in the Description field.
NOTE: not on BSFN object level, but on Function level.

Maybe you have more DS manipulation BSFN on your 8.10, which fit to your task.

Please, let us know your results. Thanks.

Regards,

Zoltán
