This utility for finding strings anywhere in the database might help you show 
how difficult that task would be:

It won’t change the data for you but if you enter run it twice (once for a 
login ID and once for a corporate ID) you may be surprised at how many places 
such data might be squirreled away. I would run it against a non-production 
server if at all possible though since I don’t know what kind of performance 
hit it might cause.

ITSM 764 sp2, Oracle, Weblogic

We have been asked to determine the difficulty/feasibility in converting all 
Login IDs and Corporate IDs to new values. The unique values currently used 
must be eliminated from "every" field in the application: Submitter, Last 
Modified By, contained within a notes/description field and all custom forms. 
We have over 1 million HPD records and millions of other ancillary tables; 
audit, work log, assignments, searches, etc. I looked at the Data Wizard 
Console (DWC) and it does allow Login IDs to be changed; it appears to search 
across 408 tables in ITSM. But it does not handle corporate id, can only be run 
for a single ID, does not search inside text fields and does not handle custom 
forms. It also looks like a process that will take a very long time to run.

Looking for any thoughts on performing such a task; maybe some tricks other 
have come up?

Thank you.
