Use this tab to specify the fields in this profile that you want propagated to all records that currently reference or will later reference this profile.
Force Propagation (checkbox)
Instructs CASP to reset all target record values back to the
profile value, even if you have overridden them in some individual
target records. It does not, however, replace an actual value with
null if null would be invalid. For example, if the target record
specifies a queue manager, and the profile record does not specify a
queue manager, but specifies that the queue manager field be
propagated, the existing queue manager is not replaced with null.
Field Name
Lists all the fields you can propagate to records that reference this profile.
Propagate Value
A value of true means this
value will be propagated; A value of false
means this value will not be propagated. You can specify which
field values you want to propagate individually by clicking on the
value in the right window to toggle it between true
and false, or you can click
the Propagate All or Propagate
None buttons if you want to specify them all.
Note: If you have modified the profile record and you are propagating values to existing target records (that is that is, the business element, client, node, or bridge records that already reference the profile), the propagation proceeds as follows after you click on the OK button:
Any fields marked False on the Propagation tab are not propagated to the existing records.
For those fields marked True, the CASP Directory Administrator compares the original profile values (before you updated them) for each profile field with the values in the target record, and one of the following occurs:
If a value in the target record matches the original profile value, the new profile value is propagated.
If a value in the target record does not match the original profile value, the new profile value is not propagated, unless you check Force Propagation, which is explained above. This enables you to use profile records to quickly change the values of a group of records while still preserving any customized fields those records currently have.
