Populating business data


The CDB Population Tool is a command-line utility that extracts, reads, and translates the business data in a CSV file.

The population utility sends the translated data to the Population Services, which stores it in the Capacity Database Web Services database.

You specify parameters for the population utility in an XML file. The name of the XML file is passed to the population utility as its only argument.

The structure of the CSV file that contains your business data must correspond to a business data extension that you defined. For more information, see Creating-and-managing-business-data-extensions.
