EIM Export Processing To export data, EIM reads the data in the Siebel database tables and places

the information in the appropriate EIM tables. You can then copy data from the EIM t ables into another database. The export process generally populates the applicable EIM table with a row for every Siebel base table row encountered. As a consequence, where EIM tables have mappings to multiple Siebel base tables, one export operat ion can generate multiple rows within the EIM table governing the rows encounter ed within the Siebel base tables. EIM performs the following tasks: Preparing the EIM Tables for Export Processing Editing the Configuration File for Export Processing Running an Export Process Checking Export Results Extracting Data from the EIM Tables During the first step of export processing, EIM inspects each EIM table involved in the process.

EXPORT ALL ROWS: It implies that all rows in the target base table and data from

the related child tables in a specific batch section are to be exported. Valid values are TRUE and FALSE (the default). When it is set to TRUE, the EXPOR T MATCHES parameter is ignored, as it is selective export process. [Export Accounts] TYPE = EXPORT BATCH = 2 TABLE = EIM_ACCOUNT EXPORT ALL ROWS = TRUE EXPORT MATCHES: This is used for filtering the base table rows to be exported. T he value is in two parts: the Siebel interface table name and the filter express ion that goes against the target base table.
