08 — ATF Testing (Studio From Scratch)

How ATF objects relate

Rule 0 — Before any object (Application + Update Set + Studio)

Repeat these checks before creating or editing any application file. This section is also section 00 Update Set — create the capture set first.

1. Application picker — top-right globe / application menu → select HR Leave (x_786686_hr_leave). Never leave Global selected when creating scoped artifacts.
2. Update Set — All → System Update Sets → Local Update Sets → New:

   Field	Value
   Name	HR Leave – Build
   Application	HR Leave
   State	In Progress
   Description	Captures all HR Leave lab artifacts

   After submit: open the record → click Make Current. Direct list: {BASE}/sys_update_set_list.do
3. Open Studio — {BASE}/$studio.do → confirm header shows HR Leave.
