Using Zero Copy Connector for ERP content packs

Learn how to use Zero Copy Connector for ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) content packs, from cloning a model to working within a scope. Content pack models and process extensions are examples.

Before you begin

Role required: sn_erp_integration.erp_admin

Follow these steps to create an application in a new application scope and clone a content pack model within that same scope. Using this process packages the application with its own scope and a cloned model that you can edit. Working in a scope creates ownership of the application and cloned model. The owner can give access to others to edit the application and cloned model as needed.

Before completing the procedure, it may be helpful to review the list of Available Zero Copy Connector for ERP content packs and to Explore a Zero Copy Connector for ERP content pack to review its contents.

Procedure

  1. Create an application.

    Use a builder application, such as Creator Studio or ServiceNow Studio, to create an application in a new scope. For detailed information and steps, see:

    - Create the foundation of an app in Creator Studio

    • Application scope
    • Confirm that an update set was created for the new application.

    • Navigate to All > System update sets > Local update sets.

    • Find the default update set created for the new application and select the name to open the record.

  1. Select a content pack model to clone.

    Models that are part of a content pack have DP at the beginning of their ERP model name.

  2. Confirm that you're still in the scope of your new application.

    Two messages in blue are displayed. The message in the record states the application in which the model resides and that the record can't be edited. Remember that models in a content pack are read only and that you must clone the model to take ownership and make changes.

    A second message states the current application scope, which should be the application you created earlier in this procedure.
