Test the customization
In this lesson, we will test the customization by creating the new workspace, new task groups, and new tasks using the Workspace Administration Tool.
SQL queries under workspaces can suffer performance issues. There are several techniques that can help improve the performance of SQL queries under workspaces. See Techniques for improving the performance of SQL queries under workspaces in the Data Service Layer for more information.

select * from XWARRANTY;
In the results, look for the row matching the CATENTRY_ID from the previous step"
CATENTRY_ID WARTERM WARTYPE OPTCOUNTER Varies according to installation 30 'LIMITED' NULL You can see that the results are different, as the write schema changes have not yet been committed.
