About integration packages, configuration, and testing
Before integration, you must ensure that the data from the integrated application is compatible with the code page for the Compass database. If you add additional record types after adding a package, you can enable the package functionality for those record types using the Designer.
Enabling record types for integrations
Some packages enable existing record types in a schema. When you install these packages, you can select the record types to enable for the package. If you add a new record type after adding the package, you can use the Designer to enable the new record type with the package functionality.

Enabling record types for integrations

Some packages enable existing record types in a schema. When you install these packages, you can select the record types to enable for the package. If you add a new record type after adding the package, you can use the Designer to enable the new record type with the package functionality.

See Compass integration packages for a list of packages and the record types that they modify.

To enable package functionality for a new record type:

Start the Designer.
Right-click on a schema version in the HCL Compass Schema Repository Explorer view and click Packages > Setup Record Types for Packages.
Select a record type from the Record Types list.
Select the packages that you want to enable for the record type from the Available Packages list.
