Adding a dependent project to a decision service

To add a dependent project to a decision service, you must add it in Rule Designer and synchronize the decision service with Decision Center.

Procedure

  1. From Rule Designer, connect to the branch or release of the decision service you want to modify.
  2. Add the dependent project in Rule Designer:
    1. If the project exists in Decision Center, import this project into your Rule Designer workspace (see Creating projects from Decision Center).
    2. If this project does not exist in Decision Center, create a new project in Rule Designer and publish it to Decision Center (see Publishing decision services to Decision Center).
  3. Add the dependency to this new project in the properties of the decision service.
  4. Synchronize the decision service. You do not need to disconnect because you are already connected to it.
  5. Publish the change to Decision Center. The .ruleproject file should be identified as changed.

Results

If an error occurs during publishing to Decision Center, the Problems view displays a message, but the publishing completes. Publishing to Decision Center only copies the information. It does not notify Decision Center users of the changes.
