Back ForwardCurrent application and Application Summary

Current ApplicationThe Application menu on the left end of the Designer Studio header displays the description (not the name key) of the current application. The menu references the application rule defined in your operator access group.

To see the entire menu name if it exceeds 25 characters, hover the cursor over it.

When creating an application rule, be careful to enter a meaningful, unique name in the Description field. Include the version number if operators have access to multiple versions of an application sharing the same description.

The Application Explorer includes only rules that belong to the application's RuleSets. The rules that are displayed depend upon the selected work pool, Application Explorer preferences, or Best Bets settings.
