TeamCity : Release branch checkout rule for different environment against Perforce repository

Question

We are working on CI project to auto build and deploy application, database (schema and data), autosys and etl components using TeamCity and Nolio.

We are using Perfoce and having below branch structure

main.br ==> for developer work

• core
  • application ==> for .Net and Java applications
  • database ==> for schema objects
  • scripts ==> for config files (e.g. .ini, .bat)
• branchX
  • autosys ==> for jil file
  • etl ==> for workflow
  • data_sql ==> for data sql script

releases ==> for release

• Build
  • tranche_1.0
    • core ==> with all subfolder as per main.br
    • branchX ==> with all subfolder as per main.br
  • tranche_2.0
    • core ==> with all subfolder as per main.br
    • branchX ==> with all subfolder as per main.br
• SIT
  • tranche_1.0
    • core ==> with all subfolder as per main.br
    • branchX ==> with all subfolder as per main.br
  • tranche_2.0
    • core ==> with all subfolder as per main.br
    • branchX ==> with all subfolder as per main.br
• UAT ==> same as DEV structure
• PROD ==> same as DEV structure

We have setup releases branch as VCS root in TeamCity.

Queries:

- how to structure TeamCity jobs for different environment and tranche release.
- how to define check-out rule for different environment and tranche release.

Thanks in advance for your help and advice.
