Changes with the Entities in OpenText PPM Version 9.20 and Later
This section describes changes with the entities in OpenText PPM version 9.20 or later.
Caution: If you already deployed an older version ALM content bundle on an earlier version of OpenText PPM, do NOT deploy the new version ALM content bundle. Otherwise you may risk losing data of your existing integrations after you upgrade Quality Center from version 10.00 to ALM 11.x.
The following two request status are added to the workflow template:
-
3-Test Lab Setup Completed
-
5-Test Execution Completed
Caution: Do not use the ALM - Request for Change workflow template provided in the ALM content bundle directly. The workflow template provided aims to act as a template to minimize your workflow creation effort.
To create your own workflow based on the workflow template,
-
Customize the ALM - Request for Change workflow template by adding the following two request statuses to appropriate workflow steps as needed:
-
3-Test Lab Setup Completed
-
5-Test Execution Completed
If the two request status do not exist, go to the Request Type Workbench and add two request status to applicable request types. For detailed instructions, see the Demand Management Configuration Guide.

-
Add necessary access grants and user groups to each of the modified steps.
The following entities were renamed since OpenText PPM version 9.20 to reflect its support for Quality Center's new version, the standard edition of Application Lifecycle Management (ALM):
-
The QC/ALM Defect Information field group and its fields (see Table 6-4)
-
The QC/ALM Info field group and its fields (see Table 6-5)
Although the two field groups were renamed respectively since OpenText PPM version 9.20, upgrading an existing integration configuration does not upgrade the names of the field groups and their field names. They still remain the same as before. The new field groups and their fields apply to new integration configurations you add in OpenText PPM version 9.20 or later.
