Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Export / Import Question
Princeton have definitions for ClarifyCRM, Oracle Apps and PeopleSoft indicated on their website. I'd strongly suggest talking to their rep's if you are interested though...
They have excellent support staff and have always been helpful. Plus I have been told, but don't specifically have figures, that their pricing is very good.
In terms of configuration I defined all relationships for about 150 tables and then defined an access path - Which explains where to start doing the extract and then how to traverse up and down relationships to get all required data. I spent a week or two setting this up but at the time I was new to the system and didn't understand the relationships. Ongoing maintenance as the application evolves is always quick and easy.
Other bonuses include the ability to move data between different DBMS technologies (DB2, Oracle, SQL Server, Informix, Sybase, etc), and is aware of native tools such as SQL Loader to speed things up.
Can you tell I was impressed when I was introduced to this product? It was one tool I didn't mind being forced to implement.

A tool such as this would be much more useful if it were to come preconfigured for use with well known apps, such as SAP for instance.
It doesn't per chance have such an option does it?
Most ERP systems have far too many tables to try and do this on your own, unless you are working for a rather large company that can spare the expense.
