Generate a Package

  1. Click the Projects node from the Console Tree. The list of all Projects will appear in the View Pane.
  2. If you do not want to generate all items from the Project, open the Project and select items you want.
  3. Right-click the Project you want to generate and select Generate Latest Changes..., Generate All Changes... or Generate Everything... (you can also select these options from the Action menu when the Project is selected). See Generating a Package.
  4. It is recommended to use the Generate Latest Changes... option as it results in lesser package sizes and thus allows to avoid potential out of memory problems.

    The first step of Package Wizard appears, containing a list of items that will be packaged.
  5. Click Next. A screen where you can add a comment and a case tracking reference to the generated package appears.
  6. Click Finish to initiate the package generation.

Before each generation, system automatically verifies dependencies of the Project and its contents and checks for changes. This is similar to what happens when using "Detect Changes" function, but without checking for new revisions of the entities.

If the Project contains items in the Missing status, the generation is blocked. In this case, deliver or ignore missing entities. If the issue is related with Project definition mismatch, using the Synchronize PB Project command may be helpful.
