Dependencies View

Edition:Application Manager is included with AdminStudio Professional and Enterprise Editions.
The Dependencies View, which opens in the Application Manager Home tab when a package’s Dependencies node is selected in the tree, varies by deployment type:

Dependencies View / Windows Installer Package
On the Dependencies View, you can view a list of all of the files of a selected Windows Installer package that have dependencies with files used by other packages or operating systems in the Application Catalog. This view is displayed for Windows Installer .msi packages in which file dependency information exists.
