DEPLOYMENTDeployment Planning and Version Control

Plan your Deployment

Using the Version Control Repository*, you can combine search terms and filters to compare the meta data related to your objects in DEV / QA environments to those in your PROD environments.

Using a flexible multi-selection you can choose objects that you want added to your release / migration package. You can also add comments as needed.

Clicking Add Deployment will bring you to the next screen where you can finalize you’re the details and contents of you package.

*Version Control Repository: This is where you can access all the versions of documentation you have saved to date)e your package details.

Deployment

Edit your Deployment

Before saving your deployment package, you can continue to add or remove objects by clicking Edit Deployment and returning to the version control repository.

Clicking Save Deployment will enter the package into the list of saved deployment packages and make it available for execution (saves objects to a staging location where they will remain until you overtly migrate them to production).

Deployment
