How to copy changes from development/test database into the production database?

We have an operational production version.

In order to be able to develop and test, we have created a development/test copy of the production database. When the changes (views, layout, ...) in the test version are completed and tested, how can I copy these into the production database without overwriting the existing records?

 

thanks,

Henk

    Henk... I asked a similar question many moons ago..   I have come up with a few different strategies.. 

    1.  Manually recreate the wheel.. :( 

    2.  Export prod data and import into stage version .. then make stage production. 

    At least with MS Access... I could separate code database from data ..   Theoretically ... you can do this using the REST/API... but there are issues there too. :(

    thanks,

    Not very hopeful...

    Will investigate your REST/API suggestion

    @Henk... Yeah.. to move to the next level .. Ninox needs a SDLC strategy... be it ability to link to base tables.. or export / import design configuration..
