There are two ways to perform a feature analysis of an application:
-
Use the Unsupported Features Analysis tool. This option enables you to do a feature analysis of the whole application, or PBL(s) in the application, or objects in the application.
-
Use the first two tasks in Appeon Deployment Wizard. When you use Appeon Deployment Wizard to deploy an application, the first task the wizard performs is a feature analysis of the whole application.
This section mainly gives instructions on the first option (using the Unsupported Features Analysis tool). For more information about the second option, refer to the section called “Deployment process”.
Step 1: Select the File > New Report menu in the UFA Report window. The New UFA Report dialog box appears, as shown in the following figure.
