Excluding tables and feature classes

Although all the tables and feature classes can be included in a product class version, you can choose to exclude them from the extraction process when data is loaded into the production database. When a table or feature class is excluded from extraction, none of the records or features are extracted from it when data is loaded into the production database. When a table or feature class is excluded from extraction, none of the records or features are extracted from it when data is loaded into the production database.
