Identifying Filter Selection In Project selection dialog there is no way to tell if user has selected filter on Global, Product, Process & Resource TAB. Only way is to click on tab and check value in selection combo. If this is empty means no filter selected, otherwise some filter is selected.

In V5R20 SP1 we introducing icon along with TAB name to identify filter selection, so that there is no need for user to click on TAB to check filter selection as shown below image



If there is active filter selected for TAB then icon with check mark will be displayed, otherwise if no active filter is selected then empty icon will be displayed. In example above Global & Process TAB has active filter selected, where as for Product & Resource no filter has been selected.
Saving detailing on Released or Integrated Process & Resource Prior to R20 GA if user load Released/Integrated Process and Resource in DPM, a warning message will be displayed indicating user cannot save a detailing. In R20GA it is now possible to save a detailing on a Released/Integrated Process and Resource. For this functionality to work correctly user needs to do the necessary customization on DPE side to allow save in 'Released' or 'Integrated' state. Following is the minimum DPE configuration changes needed.

DPE Customization for Blob type

  • Change the property “Change in integrate state” and “Change in release state” to “Yes” for BLOB object.
  • Change the property “Change in integrate state” and “Change in release state” to “Yes” for following attributes of BLOB object. If the attribute does not exist directly below the blob type then it is recommended to overwrite the attributes from base type and apply modification.

DPE Customization for Process type

  • Change the property “Change in integrate state” and “Change in release state” to “Yes” for Process object.
  • Change the property “Change in integrate state” and “Change in release state” to “Yes” for following attributes of process object. The recommendation would be to overwrite attributes on the plantype (through plantype editor) and do the modifications.
