EIM Interview Questions

Q 1 : When I tried to set the primary employee for the position through EIM, it is not getting updated. Why?

Ans :
While updating the primary employee for position, apart from setting the POSTN_PR_EMP column in the EIM table, you should also define the MISC SQL parameter in your IFB file.

Q 2 : Although setting the trace flags, I’m not able to see log information in the log file. Why?
Ans :
You should configure your component event levels as described below :-

                               Event Type                                                  Log Level
                            ----------------------                                              ---------------
                            SQL Tracing                                                          4
                            SQL Summary                                                      4
                            Task Configuration                                                 4
                            Component Tracing                                                3

Q 3 : What does IFB stands for?
Ans :
IFB stands for InterFace Builder.

Q 4 : Can I use more than one IFB file for an EIM process?
Ans :
No, it’s not possible. You can use shell process in case if you want to do more than one operation in a single EIM task.
