Sample Build Commands

FNDLOAD $FDEBS_DB_USER/$FDEBS_DB_PASSWORD 0 Y DOWNLOAD $FND_TOP/patch/115/import/afcpprog.lct "$SOURCE_FILE" PROGRAM APPLICATION_SHORT_NAME=XXHR CONCURRENT_PROGRAM_NAME=XXHRCP01

Sample Deploy Commands

cp $SOURCE_FILE $XXHR_TOP/patch/115/import/;
FNDLOAD $FDEBS_DB_USER/$FDEBS_DB_PASSWORD 0 Y UPLOAD $FND_TOP/patch/115/import/afcpprog.lct "$XXHR_TOP/patch/115/import/XXHR_Second_CP.ldt" - UPLOAD_MODE=REPLACE CUSTOM_MODE=FORCE ;

Examples

Request group name is actual name and not code. Unit Name is Code instead of Name. This is due to how FNDLOAD command works.
