Importing the channel configuration data

The Payment Feature Services base configuration data workbooks include channel configuration data. Some channel configuration data is stored in multiple database tables. When the configuration data in the workbooks is updated, make sure that the data is changed for all of the tables that are used by the channel type.

The following channel configuration data is stored in multiple database tables:

File channel. This configuration data is in the channel import worksheet.
File transfer protocol (FTP) channel
Distributed traffic agent (DTA) channel

The following table shows the database tables that contain the channel configuration data and whether the tables have columns that contain environment-specific values.
