• The Problem: An easy way to start configuring a business object such as a content app is to model it off of an existing content app. However, when there is a lot of configuration, it is difficult to tell what configuration one one has that the other doesn't and whether these differences are on purpose or by accident. One must also either scroll a lot to do the comparison or go through the annoyance of placing two windows next to each other.
• The Solution:
  
  • Select In the Compare Config App, select the root node for the baseline business object on the left of the split view and the root for the new business object on the right
  • Easily Use the colored rows to easily tell what nodes and properties the baseline business object has that the new business object does not
  • Quickly Use actions supplied by the Compare Config App to quickly migrate these differences from the baseline business object to the new business object using actions supplied by the app
  • Use the colored rows to Easily review the differences between the baseline and new business objects in the end to make sure all differences are on purpose
  • Use sample business objects supplied by Magnolia to get started quickly
