Components that you export might be dependent on other components to function as intended. For example, if you want to export a job resource and the job resource references an action to be performed when the job completes, OpenEdge Management automatically includes that action in the exported file.
An explicit component is one that you select. An implicit component is one that is also exported because a selected component has a dependency on it. On the OpenEdge Management Step 1: Select Resources for Export page, the implicit components under Components selected for export look disabled to identify their dependency. The Exported components list differentiates the explicit and implicit components in a similar manner.
