Exporting Extended Rule Libraries

Before export, resources must be converted into the proper format for storage and transference. The Export option converts a group of resources that you specify into one of the following formats:

  • XML – Enables you to transfer data or resources between two existing systems.
  • Installable bundle – Optionally enables you to load during an Sterling B2B Integrator install on a new system.

In the export process, after you have defined the file format to use for the export, you select the version of the resources to export:

  • The Standard export copies non-versioned extended rule libraries and the default version of versioned resources.
  • The Advanced export copies non-versioned extended rule libraries and enables you to choose to export just default versions or all versions of versioned extended rule libraries.

You can export extended rule libraries that are associated with a particular resource tag or resources not associated with a resource tag. For instructions, see the appropriate topic:
