During PeopleSoft implementations it’s a fairly common task to need to move Configuration (i.e. setup data) between environments. Larger implementations may even have a separate Config environment which serves as the master for config data, and from where you’d need to migrate out config into other environments on a regular basis.
There are a number of tools you could use to achieve this, be it data mover, raw SQL or even an SQR or App Engine. All of these would need to be custom written.
