 When you no longer need a project, you can delete it from its database. You can leave this task to your administrator. However, if the instance of the project is yours and you want to do this tutorial again, you can do the cleanup yourself. If you want to keep your changes, you can export a compressed file of the project from Decision Center before deleting the project.

-Business experts develop and deploy decision services in Decision Center. Distributed business teams can collaborate through the web-based environment to create and maintain decision logic. They can modify rules to meet changes in policies without changing the applications that call the rules. They can apply business decisions immediately without developers having to recode production applications.
