Import a case type from a built-on application to reuse resources and reduce the
complexity of your application.
-
On the Class form for your current work pool, in the Parent class
(Directed) field, enter the work pool of your built-on application.
This step is necessary if this is the first time that you are importing a case
type.
-
In the explorer panel of Dev Studio, click Cases
.
-
From the top-level menu, select Import case types.
-
Review the list of top-level case types that will be added to your application.
Case types with the same name as an existing case type in your application are not
available in this list.
- Optional:
To exclude a case type from the import process, clear the check box next to the name
of the case type.
-
Click Submit.
The case type and its child case types are added to your application. Supporting rules,
such as the starting flow for a case type, continue to reside in the built-on application.
You can leave them there or create specialized versions in your application.
