Setting the application view

BMC Change Management is configured by your application administrator. The following procedure provides information about setting the view.    

To set the view

2. From the Application Administration Console, click the Custom Configuration tab.
3. On the Custom Configuration tab, choose Foundation > Advanced Options > View Selection Framework - Deploy View, and then click Open.
4. In the navigation pane on the left side of the form, select the following items:
   • Application name: BMC Change Management or Release Management
   • Role:
     • (Classic view) Change Classic View User or Release Classic View User
     • (Best Practice view) Change Best Practice View User or Release Best Practice View User
     • (VLM view, if applicable) Virtualization Administrator
5. To deploy the view to a company, perform the following steps:
   1. On the Company Mapping tab, select the company to which you are mapping the view.
   2. If necessary, change the sorting order number.
      The sorting order is used when a support group or an individual belongs to more than one company. A company with a lower sort order value takes precedence over a company with a higher sort order value.

   1. On the Support Group Mapping tab, select the company and organization to which the support group belongs.

      The sorting order is used when a support group or an individual belongs to more than one company. A company with a lower sort order value takes precedence over a company with a higher sort order value.

      Note

      If you need to change the sort order after you save the deployment, you must first delete the deployment by using the Remove button, and then re-create the deployment with the new sort order number.
