Lifecycle Management FeaturesTaking Advantage of Enterprise
PeopleToolsLifecycle Management FeaturesThis document provides an
overview and briefly describes these PeopleSoft Enterprise
PeopleTools features: Application Designers compare features.
Change Assistant. Change Impact Analyzer.Understanding Lifecycle
Management FeaturesEnterprise PeopleTools provides a variety of
tools and utilities to aid in maintaining your PeopleSoft
investment. These tools are designed to enhance installation,
upgrade, and the application of software updates, or bundles. By
providing a rich user interface and by automating many of the
steps, the administrative tasks involved within an installation,
upgrade, or update require less time and effort, all while reducing
potential errors.The features discussed in this document focus on
the tools and features that would be most useful while applying a
PeopleSoft application update, or bundle.Note. The features
described in this document have become available in different,
incremental Enterprise PeopleToolsreleases. Whether you can use a
feature described in this document depends on your Enterprise
PeopleTools version.Application Designers Compare
FeaturesPeopleSoft Application Designer enables you to compare the
contents between two databases or between a databaseand a file.
Viewing the status of each definition in each location gives you
the information for deciding which definitionsto keep during an
application update. The following table describes some of the key
features you can use whenperforming definition
comparisons.FeatureDescriptionPeopleTools ReleaseGenerate compare
and reports.These reports appear in the PeopleSoft Application
Designer workspace immediately after the compare process completes,
highlighting differences between two data sources.8.xGenerate
browser reports.These reports are written to HTML and XML files
enabling you to open the report in a browser, share the report with
coworkers easily, and store report data in an industry-standard
format.8.46Visually compare page definitionsEnables you to view
source and target page definitions side-by-side, with differences
clearly marked.8.46Visually compare and merge page definitionsAdds
to the visual page compare by providing the merge
feature.8.48Visually compare and merge text definitions.This
feature enables you to view PeopleCode, HTML, SQL, and XSLT
definitions side-by-side, with differences clearly marked. It also
enables you to merge source PeopleCode with target
PeopleCode.8.48See AlsoEnterprise PeopleTools 8.46 (and later)

AssistantEnterprise PeopleTools 8.44 introduced PeopleSoft Change
Assistant to improve the process of finding, analyzing,downloading,
and installing application patches and updates. The Environment
Management hub gathers informationabout your environment (including
licensed products, maintenance history, and so on) and uploads this
informationto the PeopleSoft product support website. Based on your
specific environment information, Change Assistant: recommends only
the necessary software updates. verifies prerequisites and
post-requisites and determines the order to apply software updates.
applies software updates with minimal user intervention. maintains
a complete history of all software updates applied to each
environment.See AlsoEnterprise PeopleTools 8.44 (and later)
PeopleBook: PeopleSoft Change AssistantEnterprise PeopleTools 8.46
(and later) PeopleBook: PeopleSoft Software UpdatesChange Impact
AnalyzerEnterprise PeopleTools 8.48 introduced Change Impact
Analyzer, a change analysis tool that enables you to exploreand
understand the downstream effects of taking patches or making
changes to an applicationall before acceptingor making the change.
Change Impact Analyzer can be leveraged in conjunction with Change
Assistant to reduce thetime required to analyze and implement
changes to your system.Change Impact Analyzer is an interactive
utility through which you can view the relationships of PeopleSoft
definitions(such as fields, records, or pages) in a hierarchical
view. Based on a set of configurable rules, Change ImpactAnalyzer
determines the relationships between definitions so that you can
assess various types of potential changeimpact, such as those
described in the following table, with a quicker, more
comprehensive approach.Impact TypeDescriptionStructuralThese could
be impacts such as how a change to a field type or its properties
could affect the structure of a record. Making changes to a field
without considering its effect on associated records may cause
runtime errors.BehavioralThese could be impacts such as changing a
common library PeopleCode program that is called by numerous other
PeopleCode programs. This can affect the behavior of the calling
program. Or, suppose a PeopleCode program that writes to fields has
changed. This can affect the behavior of the fields. In these
cases, Change Impact Analyzer lists all the affected programs or
fields for your analysis.Being aware of all the relationships
between definitions and the potential structural or behavioral
impacts associatedwith a change helps you determine what other
modifications need to be made and helps you create a
testingstrategy.See AlsoEnterprise PeopleTools 8.48 (and later)
