To function properly, certain UI functions require a Business Services installation on the Natural server. For example, the Business-Services root node in the Natural Server view can be used to download Business Services resources from a Natural server to a local Natural project, but only when there is a Business Services installation on the server. By default, these UI functions will be made visible based on the installation of Business Services on the Natural server. To accomplish this, a server call determines which products are installed on the server and the results are cached until Designer shuts down, which allows for only one server call per host|port|session parameter.
You can set installation preferences in the Preferences window for Business Services Installation.
To set installation preferences:
Select on the menu.
The Preferences window is displayed.
Select .
The Preferences window for Installation options is displayed. For example:
Using this window, you can:
| Task | Procedure |
|---|---|
| Make all UI functions visible, even when Business Services is not installed on the Natural server. | Deselect Make UI functionality visible based on Natural server installation. No server calls will be made to determine which products are installed on the server. |
Select to save the preferences.
