Information about Application Engine Program Type 'Import-Only'


What is 'Import Only' Program Type in Application Engine ?

This is a specific program type, that only get set when your generated an Application Engine program from a File Layout.


This is a program type for a simple peoplesoft import job only. After the Application Engine program was generated or modified, it is recommended to change the type back to Normal, not using the 'Import only'. 


But so far, we don't see any big difference for sample File layout import job when using this Application Engine program type and the Normal type.


Does it affect commit points, and if so, how?

No, it work the same as Normal Application Engine program type.


How would a program inserting rows into a table, and reading them from a flat file be affected?

As explained earlier, this program type is only set when using File Layout to generated AE automatically in app designer, the generated AE should be strictly used from this purpose, it would affect the other program.

What would happen if this process failed, and was restarted?

The Application Engine program restartability is controlled separately by the 'Disable restart' checkbox, and this Application Engine program type will follow the same rule as Normal program type.
