Can we create actions from one prod model to the other prod model?

In my organization, we have two prod models and one dev for both of them. Can we create an action in this case? The user asks to reflect the data from one UI page to another, but they are from two different models and a common dev. Is this doable?

Hi @keerthikancharla ,

Suppose the requirement is to pull data from Prod A to Prod B, create an import action in DEV to pull data from Prod A. Once you sync this to both the prods, you must verify and edit source model mapping setting in Prod B, and set it as "Prod A". When ran from Prod B, this action will import data from Prod A.
If you also need to import data from prod B to prod A, just edit source model mapping setting in Prod A model, and set it as "Prod B".

Cheers!

Thanks for your quick response@AjayM. I get what you are saying but in our case the common dev model, In that the source and target is from the same module and same line item. It should fetch the data from Prod A to Prod B in the same module and same line item. How can we do this?

My approach would still work, you just need to handle the mapping between dimensions (of source module in prod vs those of target module in DEV), while creating the action.

I answered your question in the other thread you started.

Go to Dev Model and create an action to pull data from Prod A into Dev.
Deploy the action to Prod B.
Run the action in Prod B—this will pull data directly from Prod A.
