You can edit the effective period of a record version. You edit the effective period value if you saved an incorrect value for a record version. You can change the effective period of a record by changing the start date and end date of a record version.
When you edit the effective period of a record version to start later or to end earlier than the date you specified, you decrease the effective period. When you edit the effective period of a record version to start earlier or to end later than the date you specified, you increase the effective period.
You can edit the effective period of a record version when contiguity of records is enabled in the associated base object. The
MDM Hub
extends or decreases the effective period of any record version that is adjacent to the record version that you edit to maintain contiguity. If noncontiguous effective periods can exist in a base object, the record versions that are adjacent are affected when you extend the effective period.
To edit effective periods of record versions during a load batch job, perform the following settings:
TIMELINE_ACTION. Set the value of the TIMELINE_ACTION staging table column to
2
. When you set the property to
2
, the
MDM Hub
can edit the effective period of a record version. The TIMELINE_ACTION column is mapped from the corresponding landing table column.
TIMELINE_FILL_ON_GAP. Ensures that contiguity between the effective dates of record versions is maintained when you edit the effective periods of record versions. Set the property in the C_REPOS_TABLE of the Operational Reference Store or in the Staging Table properties of the Hub Console.
If set to
true
, when you can add a new record version to the base object, the
MDM Hub
maintains the contiguity between effective periods of record versions. If set to
false
, the
MDM Hub
rejects any addition of record version that breaks the contiguity between effective periods of record versions. The default is
false
.
You can effect edits to effective periods through data from a state management override system or through the source system in which the record originated.
