Synchronize Extensions
An app may contain business rules, and both the app and the business rules have an indicator of whether they are active or inactive. These indicators work as follows:
• For an app: This status reflects the app's overall state (active or inactive).
• For business rules: This is a setting configured in Field Definer > Business Object > Details > Extensions step, under the field Activated.
The combination of these statuses determines whether a business rule will be executed:
• If an app is Active and the business rule is Activated = Yes, the rule will be executed.
• If an app is Inactive and the business rule is Activated = Yes, the rule will not be executed.
• If a business rule is Activated = No, it will not be executed regardless of the app's status.
Use Case
Apps can have multiple business rules. For convenience, you can enable or disable all related business rules simultaneously:
• When the app is Active: Clicking Synchronize Extensions in the action panel enables all related business rules (Activated = Yes).
• When the app is Inactive: Clicking Synchronize Extensions in the action panel disables all related business rules (Activated = No).
This feature is particularly useful for apps with numerous extensions. For example, you can disable all extensions and activate a single extension to test it individually.
