On the Attributes page of the Configure menu,
you can create attributes and update information about existing attributes.
When you modify attribute settings, click the module that
the attribute is part of and click the attribute. You can enter the
following information about the attribute:
- Name
- Alias: You can use an alias when you integrate
with other tools through Web Services 2.0. The default value is a
random auto-generated Universally Unique Identifier (UUID), which
you can use instead of your Rational® Focal Point™ ID.
You can change the alias, but it must be unique.
- Description: This text is visible when
you hover the mouse pointer over the attribute title and when users
edit the attribute.
- Administrator Notes: In this field, you
can enter tips or information for other administrators. For example, "This
attribute must not be editable in any views." The administrator
notes are displayed in the attribute setup when you configure access
levels in views and when you add global attributes to modules.
- Position Before: This setting determines
where the attribute is placed.
