Deployment Guide

After compiling a rule in ERP Logic Studio, you’ll receive a deployment package containing everything needed to install the rule in Prophet 21.

Deployment Package Contents

• Compiled DLL — The .NET Framework 4.8 compatible business rule assembly
• Configuration XML — P21 business rule configuration in the DynaChange format
• Field Mapping Documentation — Reference for all P21 fields used by the rule
• Installation Guide — Step-by-step instructions for your specific rule

Installation Steps

1. Download the deployment package from ERP Logic Studio
2. Extract the package contents
3. Copy the DLL to your P21 DynaChange rules directory
4. Import the configuration XML into P21’s business rule manager
5. Test the rule in a development environment
6. Deploy to production when verified

Best Practices

• Always test rules in a development or staging P21 environment first
• Keep a backup of existing rules before deploying new ones
• Use version control in ERP Logic Studio to track rule changes
• Document any custom configurations or field mappings
