Purpose	Use this page to display a banner announcement on each page of the space. Create the Space announcements page in the master space, outside of the Home branch. You can version the Space announcements page to enable different banners to be published into different target spaces, however, the banner that is displayed in the versioned (master) space itself only displays the most recently-published banner. If you find errors in the banner area of your versioned space and you are sure the Space announcements page is set up correctly, try publishing the page to the same space. For more information, see Space-announcements-banners.
Removing	When an announcement is no longer needed, remove the BMC Space Banner macro.
Translation	Localized spaces using the L10n Viewport theme must change the name of this page to Space announcements l10n. See Configuring-the-Scroll-ViewPort-theme-for-translated-spaces.
Usage	Choose one or none of the following BMC Space Banner macros. If your space requires another kind of announcement, you can use this page in coordination with your team lead and editors. When should I use a space announcement banner? Use the space organization announcement after you change the content from a book-like organization (such as User Manual, Configuration Manual, and Administration Guide) to the product model. Use the latest version announcement to push traffic to later versions. You do not need to add this to every previous version, but if you have a specific reason that you want users to be aware—for example, Google searches show content for an obsolete version—use the banner to help users find a relevant version. When an announcement is no longer needed, remove the BMC Space Banner macro.

Criteria menu - associated mode

The File-AID/Data Solutions Criteria Menu - Associated Mode screen shown in the following figure is displayed when you create or modify an associated disguise rule. The menu is specifically designed to accommodate disguise criteria creation for File-AID/RDX extracts. This menu cannot be accessed from the stand-alone BMC Compuware File-AID/Data Solutions product, only via the bridge from File-AID/RDX.

Here you select the desired disguise option(s) and identify the associated rule with a meaningful description as you can change the generated name to a more descriptive associated rule name.

Important

When specifying criteria in associated mode, only the associated field is displayed in the respective criteria screen (see File-AID/Data Solutions Data Generator Criteria for an example).

Column Name

Identifies the name of the columns/fields of the object you selected in the Data Disguise - Column/Field List.

Associated Rule

Identifies the disguise rule member name in the Disguise Criteria file. When creating a new rule File-AID/RDX assigns a unique name (Annnnnnn) in the current disguise criteria file. You can change the generated name to a more descriptive associated rule name. This field only displays when criteria is stored in the Disguise Criteria file.

Description

Displays the disguise rule description as entered during the disguise creation. By default, it includes the word ASSOCIATED for associated mode, followed by the column/field and object name. You can change the generated description to better reflect your disguise criteria.
