Include all service level global variables |
Includes all global variables for which you clicked the Service check box. Note: This check box is provided for some adapters that do not properly report all their properties.

4. | Create one or more Process Archives and add them to the Enterprise archive. This is described in Creating a Process Archive. |
5. | Build the archive by clicking the Build Archive button. When you click the button, TIBCO Designer creates an enterprise archive (.ear ) file that you can then deploy from TIBCO Administrator. |
