Update Replace Component Version
The Replace Version dialog box allows users to update the replace version to override strict version control, saying that the current version is allowed to replace a version above it in the life cycle. The value it is changed to must correspond to a valid internal version from a different version of the same component that is active and has an environment of either HOLD or PROD. Update Replace Version allows users to promote a component “out of order”; hopefully after careful investigation of the versions involved. The use of this operation can be independently secured to limit its use.
To access the Replace Version dialog box
From an applicable view, right-click a component version and select Update Replace Version. The Replace Version dialog box appears.
To change the “replace version”
- From the Replace Version dialog box, select the entry in the New replace version list that will be used as the replace version for the task in the Name field.
- Click OK.
Revise the fields as necessary, based on the field definitions.
