Workspace managed assets

Managed assets are WebSphere Commerce components or resources that are enabled for workspaces and allow content to be written to separate workspace database schemas. Workspace Content Contributors can modify managed assets in the context of a workspace.

WebSphere Commerce provides the following managed assets:

• Product management assets: catalog, categories, products, attributes, and prices

• Merchandising management assets: merchandising associations and sales catalog

• Marketing management assets: campaigns,
  Web activities, eSpots,
  promotions, and marketing experimentation (except for e-mail campaigns)

• Attachment assets

Other assets such as contract assets, member management assets, store management assets, file assets such as JSP files or HTML files, and Product Advisor metaphor assets are not managed assets. You can only work on non-managed assets in the production-ready data.

If your planned site updates include a mix of managed assets you want to update using workspaces and non-managed assets, ensure that your planned workflow handles any dependencies between the managed and non-managed assets.
