2.10. The Global Area
When assets are created in the JBoss Enterprise BRMS user interface, they can be created and stored in specific packages or the global area. Assets stored in the global area must be imported into the packages that make use of them before they can be used.
The global area has been provided as a storage location for assets not yet in use or as a central location for assets used in multiple packages.
Exercise caution when editing assets that are located in the global area. Assets that have been edited in the global area will need to be imported again into the packages that make use of them. Old versions of the previously imported assets will need to be removed.
