8.2. Set up an Attribute Maintenance List for your RCO Configuration
About this task
Make sure SQL Server/MSDE is running before starting the RCO Configuration application as RCO configuration uses a SQL Server database to store its information.
You need to lock RCO configuration to allow you to edit the configuration.
This ensures that the RCO configuration is copied locally before configuration changes are allowed.
Procedure

Right-click the CIMPTRACK folder.

You will use the COLOR attribute the most. However, you will include other attributes in scripts. You will also see where you can access them in the Tracker system.
