Lifecycles Main Window

From the Lifecycles main window you can:

- Create, copy, or delete lifecycles, or edit the name of a lifecycle.

- Relate a lifecycle to one or more object types.

- View and manage the image files associated with a lifecycle.

You edit the states, transitions, and associated roles and rules for a lifecycle using the Edit Lifecycle dialog box. This is described in more detail in The Edit Lifecycle Dialog Box.

The Lifecycles main window consists of the following:

- Menu area: Displays a toolbar with buttons to carry out various functions. See Lifecycles Menu Area.

- Navigation pane: Displays a list of all the lifecycles for the base database, optionally restricted by a filter that selects only lifecycles for requests, items, or baselines. See Lifecycles Navigation Pane.

- Content pane: If no lifecycles are selected, this contains a table listing details of all the lifecycles. If a lifecycle is selected in the navigation pane, it displays various details for the lifecycle and a diagram showing its normal states. See Lifecycles Content Pane.

- Status area: Displays login details. See Status_Area.
