Environments

An environment connection is needed in order for the Rules Palette to communicate with the database that stores the application configuration.  

Note:  If you need to install the Rules Palette application, you can do so using the installation instructions provided in this help system.

There are two types of environment connections that can be created: an Internal Version System (IVS) or a non-IVS.  The environment you create depends on the type of database your company is using.  

IVS is Oracle's versioning system for the Rules Palette.  It allows you to store versions of the configuration so that you can revert to a previous version if necessary. Your Build Manager will give you the information you need in order to set-up an environment connection.

Note:  Once you launch the Rules Palette, make sure to delete any old/existing environments before creating new ones.
