Project Settings(Synchronization) (OracleToSQL)

  • Article

The Synchronization page of the Project Settings dialog box contains settings that customize how SSMA loads and refreshes database objects, such as tables and stored procedures, into SQL Server.

The default actions options specify default settings for refreshing objects from the Oracle database and for synchronizing objects with the SQL Server database. For more information, see Refresh from Database - Oracle.

You can access two different Synchronization pages that contain the same settings:

  • To specify settings for all future SSMA projects, on the Tools menu, click Default Project Settings, and then click Synchronization at the bottom of the left pane.

  • To specify settings for the current project, on the Tools menu, click Project Settings, and then click Synchronization at the bottom of the left pane.
