# Action baseline items

You can action items in a baseline to a new lifecycle state.

PRIVILEGES: Action item to next state to action the items to a valid next state. Action items to any state to action the items to a lifecycle state without a valid transition.

To action baseline items:

1. In the web client, select a baseline.

2. Click the Action Baseline Items button.

3. In the Action Baseline Items dialog box, change the Item Specification Filter, if needed. You can use the following wildcards:

   - Use an underscore (_) to match a single character. For example, `d_g` matches `dog` or `dig`.

   - Use an asterisk (*) or percent sign (%) to match any number of characters. For example, `d*g` matches `dog` or `drag` or `dreaming`.

4. From the New Status list, select the next status for the items.

   Note: If you do not have the Action baselines to any state privilege, the new status must be reached from the current status by a single normal lifecycle transition. If you leave the New Status field blank, Dimensions CM automatically selects the next normal lifecycle status.

5. (Optional) For Action description, enter a comment.

6. Click OK.
