Enable fields in OpenText Application Quality Management entities
This section describes the initially disabled fields in OpenText Application Quality Management defects and requirements that you may need to enable to support the integration with PPM request types. Fields in OpenText Application Quality Management that are related to PPM are not initially enabled.
Note: The integration automatically populates these OpenText Application Quality Management defect or requirement fields from data in PPM. These are not mappings you establish between fields in OpenText PPM and ALM. The integration updates some ALM fields on an ongoing basis as indicated.
In addition, the Attachments tab in ALM lists URLs for all of the attachments to the OpenText PPM request. Clicking one of the links opens the OpenText PPM request (after login).
