In this tutorial, you learn how to create a classic application profile, how to create a classic application by using Classic Application Administration, and how to open the application and view the metadata.
Your company wants you to create a stand-alone application that will be used for training purposes. The application's language is English, and it is based on a standard calendar year, divided into quarters and months. The start month is January 2011, and the duration is 10 years.
