HCM Extract Migration

HCM Extract provides export and import options. For any new development work, migration approach should be export/import.

Export Extract Definition
My Workforce >> Data Exchange >> Manage Extract/ Extract Definition >> Search Extract  and Click export icon ( 3rd one having up arrow key symbol)  

This will download the XML version of Extract definition. 

Import Extract Definition 

My Workforce >> Data Exchange >> Manage Extract/ Extract Definition >> Click on Import Icon ( opposite of export and available at top left corner , beside +) 

It will prompt to Give Extract Name and file Import. 

Limitation - Extract Name must be unique during Import. This is why this method doesn't really helpful if change is in existing extract. 

It also doesn't allow to delete extract  if it did ran in past. So you can't delete and reuse same name. 

For Operational Support, all changes to existing extract need to be done manually.
