Platform SDK: Team Productivity Update

Configuring the Application

The Expense Report application collects information during configuration. This information is collected at the time you apply the registered application to a Team Workspace. One way of applying the application is to use the Microsoft Management Console (MMC).

To apply the application using MMC

  1. From the TPU Management Console, select Manage Team Workspaces.
  2. Next, select a Team Workspace and click Modify Team Workspace.
  3. Start the Team Workspace Creation Wizard to add the Expense Report application.

When you add the Expense Report application to a Team Workspace, the TPU calls the Publish URL. The Publish URL begins the configure and deploy process. The Publish URL tells the TPU to call the Configure URL first. This .asp file collects the global configuration information for the application, as shown in the figure below.

Once the global configuration information has been entered, the user must click Submit. After the Submit button has been clicked, the global configuration information is saved. Next, the Publish URL tells the Team Productivity Update to call the Deploy URL.
