Use this checklist before turning an APEX prototype into an enterprise application.

B.1 Delivery Readiness#

  • Define the business owner, success criteria, user groups, and release scope.
  • Confirm data model ownership, migration path, and rollback strategy.
  • Verify that pages, reports, forms, and workflows match the target business process.

B.2 Security and Operations#

  • Use authentication and authorization schemes rather than menu hiding alone.
  • Review session state protection, file access, REST credentials, and audit needs.
  • Prepare monitoring, debug procedures, backup strategy, and environment separation.

B.3 Maintainability#

  • Keep business logic in packages where reuse, testing, and review matter.
  • Export applications and database objects into source control.
  • Document operating assumptions, integration contracts, and release steps.
