Configuration

The Configuration can be selected and included in the component list required for creating configuration packages. The selected Configuration overwrites, or gets inserted, in the destination environment. Overwrite only occurs if the Replace in Destination checkbox is selected for the component. If the component does not exist in the destination environment, the configuration package will always insert the component into the destination environment.
