Differences between statements in Instances and Profiles
The page that opens once the profile Statements tab is selected looks very similar to the page that opens when the Statements tab is selected in Instances.
Profile Statements tab:
Instance Statements tab:
As you can see, some text is different, and the Statements tab under Instances allows you to select a profile within your instance to which these model statements will apply. Otherwise, the layout and information on the Profiles Statements tab and the Instances Statements tab are the same. They both allow you to add new statements, edit existing statements, set defaults as desired, and more. You can also select statements in the table, which displays up to 100 statements at a time, to delete statements or add more information.
