The following default asset types are created directly in the ATG Business Control Center:

Other asset types are created elsewhere (in the ACC or in a third-party application such as a graphics editor). They can then be added to ATG Content Administration through the Asset tab interface in the ATG Business Control Center.

The following table shows where you create, edit, and add different types of ATG Content Administration assets.

Note: Your system might include custom asset types not shown here.

Note: Nested content groups and profile groups are not supported by ATG Content Administration, as the deployment system cannot detect that the “containing” group depends on the “contained” group and so deploys them together.
