About Application rules

Note In most cases, as a best practice use the Application Overview landing page, rather than this rule form, to update information on the Details tab. See Application Overview landing page.

Use the Details tab to review, add, and update application detail including business objectives, work types, supporting use cases, and actors. This information is initially entered in an Application Profile and created by the Application Accelerator. proj-831 5.4 5.5 GRP-203 TASK-777

NoteIf your application includes a composite portal that incorporates the standard @baseclass.NewWork section (that allows users to enter new work objects), the Work Types area is required, not optional. List all work types in all work pools (class groups) of the application. See How to create a composite portal.
