Remarks
Business data projects created through the Commerce Server Staging (CSS) Microsoft Management Console (MMC) generate business data configuration XML files. These files are located in %COMMERCE_SERVER_ROOT%/Staging/Projects. Business data configuration files are defined for both the source staging server and the destination server. These files define how data is exported from the source database and imported into the destination database.
