Wrap Up: Summary and
Implications of Changing the
Data Model
2019 Deloitte
Implications of Data Model Changes
Consider the Following
Interfaces
When changing the
data model, make
sure this is
considered in any
relevant interfaces
and mapping tables.
:
Data Migration
Extraction Programs and
Migration templates may need
to be updated after data model
Field Uniqueness changes.
Custom fields cannot be
used twice within an
object or element. Also
make sure the particular
field is supported for the
portlet in question.
HRIS Mapping
When Changing the
HRIS Sync Mapping,
note that you may
need to manually run
an HRIS Sync to
refresh data in the
Employee Profile.
