Controlling the Reuse of Elements Published to CentraSite
You can control whether or not assets you have published to CentraSite can be reused in BPM processes or CAF projects. You do this by designating an asset as public or private.
In Designer, when an element is public, you can drag it from the CentraSite Registry Explorer view to a BPM process or CAF project. When an element is private, you cannot drag it from the CentraSite Registry Explorer view to a BPM process or CAF project, or any other location.
Use the public setting for assets you want to be reused more widely within your organization, beyond the bounds of the current project.
All published assets are available for Impact Analysis, whether they are private or public.
Although changing the public/private status will immediately change whether or not you can drag an element to a BPM process or CAF project, the element's status in CentraSite will not change until the next publication of assets to CentraSite.
To control the reuse of the published asset for an element
1. In the Package Navigator view, select the element you want to work with.
2. In the Properties view, next to the Reuse property, do one of the following:
To... | Select... |
Allow the published asset to be dragged from the CentraSite Registry Explorer view to a BPM process or a CAF project | Public |
Prevent the published asset from being dragged from theCentraSite Registry Explorer view to a BPM process or a CAF project | Private |
3. Click File > Save.
