2. It is required to select a Dimensions Host (corresponds to a cms-host as defined in PKitConfig.xml).
3. The Server, Database name and Database connections fields are read-only. They refer to the corresponding cms-property definitions of the selected Dimensions host.
4. Enter the name of the Dimensions Product to use. The product must exist on the selected server in the specified database.
5. Enter the name of the Dimensions Project/Stream to use. A project or stream with the entered name must exist for the Dimensions product.
6. The fields Username, Password are required for authentication of the Stages system account. They can be predefined in PkitConfig.xml.
