Exporting a VFix entity to a service pack

This option is selected by default to help you determine if an action log that you want to export contains entities that have been modified and included in other action logs. See Exporting entities.

Select one or more action numbers to export to a service pack.

This lists the files in the VFix folder connected to the selected Action number.

This lists the files waiting for export. If the same physical file is connected to more than one action log, it is added once in the list and in the resulting service pack zip file.

Select this if you want to export using base format. The resulting zip file will be formatted so that it can be installed into the base structure of a component. An exported base zip file only contains entities from one component.

Selecting this check box will automatically disable the Existing SP and Suffix fields.

If you want to export files to an existing SP file, click the browse button to select the particular SP. In this case, there is no need to provide the Destination and suffix details.

Specify or browse for the folder where the resulting zip file should be created.

The first time an Export VFix to Service Pack is performed for a particular project, the target location is empty. For subsequent exports for the same project, however, the previously selected target location is set as default path.

Specify the component name as suffix

Select this check box to keep the files in the VFix folder after export; otherwise, the files are removed.

Fill in the fields to provided information used in the PDF file, which is created along with the SP file. A calendar option is provided to select the export delivery date.
