Packing list names must be unique on each BMC Remedy AR System server. Although there are no naming conventions, create names that provide meaningful descriptions of the packing list. Names can be a maximum of 80 characters, including spaces. Names can include double-byte characters, but avoid using numbers at the beginning of the name.
Names are shared across packing lists, active link guides, filter guides, web services, and applications, so each name must be unique.
Directly related objects that are added to a packing lists
If you select Directly Related Objects when adding objects to a packing list, the packing list includes related objects as described in the following table.
Related objects in a packing list
For | Packing list includes |
|---|---|
Forms | All related menus, active links, filters, escalations, active link guides, filter guides, web services, and distributed mapping definitions. In addition, menus from the Change Field action of the active links are included. Any other forms referenced in workflow actions, guides, and menus are not associated as related objects. |
Join forms | All forms that were used to create these join forms as well as their related items (as defined in the operations included in the Forms above). |
Active links | All menus that are referenced in the Change Field actions, and all guides that are referenced in the Call Guide action. The guides should see the same form to which the active link refers. The active links that are referenced in the guide also fall within the same scope; therefore, the associated objects of those active links are included. This cycle continues until it reaches a form. |
Filters | All filter guides referenced in a Call Guide action and all DSO mapping definitions referenced in a DSO action. Filters that are referenced in the guide also fall within the same scope; therefore, the associated objects of those filters are included. The guides should see the same form to which the filter refers. Escalations do not have any of the above actions, so there are no associations for escalations. |
Active link guides | All active links referenced in the guide as well as all associated objects for those active links. |
Filter guides | All filters referenced in the guide as well as all associated objects for those filters. |
Applications | All associated forms and the list of related objects associated with those forms. |
Web Services | Included as an independent object. |
Menus | No related items included. |
Groups | Included as an independent object. |
Flashboards | Included as an independent object. |
Images | Included as an independent object. |
