Customize the product rule to specify contents, dependencies, deployment options, and history entries.

1. Specifying the content of a product rule

   Specify the applications, rulesets, instances, .jar files to include in the product rule.

   To ensure that your product rule will import correctly, list the products and hotfixes that are required to deploy the product. Pega Platform verifies that these dependencies are installed on your system before importing the product rule.

   To automatically revalidate and save the product rule on import, to provide a file with post-import information, and to specify classes to bypass during an update, configure the deployment options.
