The Edit CR Process Properties dialog box opens.
A placeholder, named _New_Attribute_, for the new attribute are displayed in the Change Request Attributes list and in the Name field.
See the Rational Change 5.2 Known Problems technical document for naming restrictions.
In releases before 5.3.1, the attributes of web type CCM_NUMBER were stored as strings in the database. For 5.3.1 and later, you can set their DB Type as integer. When the DB Type is set as integer, they can hold only integer values and users can query on them using mathematical operators such as =, !=, >, < >=, or <=. If you want your attributes of web type CCM_NUMBER to be treated as integers, create the attributes of web type CCM_NUMBER and select integer in the DBType list. Then, recreate and reinstall the process package. When the attributes display in the CR dialogs, users can enter integer values and run queries using mathematical operators.
Do not update the DB Type of the old CCM_NUMBER attributes to integer. Doing so will result in inconsistent query results.
To create a list box, click CCM_LISTBOX in the Web Type list.
If the web type is CCM_LISTBOX, you can make the attribute dependent on another attribute by clicking an attribute in the Parent list. For example, make the browser_version child attribute dependent on the browser parent attribute.
