The Web-based ATG Business Control Center is intended to supersede the ACC interface used in earlier versions of the ATG platform. In ATG 2007.3, the ACC is still available and can be used to edit the ATG Personalization components described in this guide. However, please note the following:
Content targeters and content groups that you created in the ACC can be opened and edited in the ATG Business Control Center. However, once you edit these items in the ATG Business Control Center, you cannot subsequently use them in the ACC.
User profiles, organizations, and roles can be created and edited in either the ATG Business Control Center or the ACC. The ATG Business Control Center is the recommended interface. Note also that the ACC references the external user profile repository by default, so any changes you make through the Users menu in this application apply to external profiles (live profiles on your production site). For information on how to use the ACC to edit internal profiles, refer to the ATG Services documentation.
The ATG Business Control Center requires ATG Content Administration. If your ATG product suite does not include ATG Content Administration, you must continue to use the ACC to create and edit the components described in this guide. See the ATG Personalization Guide for Business Users.
Slots, scenarios, and workflows must be edited in the ACC. Important: if you want to use the ACC on the management server to edit these items, you are required to run your application with the Preview layer enabled. See Running the Application with the Preview Layer.
