Introduction

Schema can be imported from the IDVault or deployed to the IDVault in Designer 3.0. We cannot compare the Schema between IDVault and Designer like we have for Configurations.

The view differences button in the import dialog box lists only the classes and objects present in the IDVault but not in Designer.

This appnote is aimed at understanding the Schema Compare UI.

Launching

To Launch the Schema Compare Window from IDVault, right click the Menu and browse to Live > Schema > Compare

Click to view.

The Schema Compare dialog box, displaying Unequals.

Click to view.

The Schema compare dialog box, updating Designer.

Click to view.

The Schema compare dialog box updating the IDvault.

Click to view.

Note:

  1. We have the “show all and show differences” option in the drop-down list. Show differences will be the default option.
  2. The differences are highlighted in the bottom pane.
  3. The bottom portion of the dialog box can be used to display the selected Class/Attribute in the SCH format.

It was contributed by a community member and is published "as is." It seems to have worked for at least one person, and might work for you. But please be sure to test, test, test before you do anything drastic with it.

You have not missed it. It is an prelook into the Schema Compare UI which will be available in Designer 4.0.

You can see it in another few days in the nightly builds of Designer 4.0

Thanks & Regards
