Field Description
Create User Profile Field Descriptions: Panel 2
Defaults for check out and create request
The following fields define the check out and promotion defaults for the user. The Chg field allows you
to define whether the user can override the default value in the corresponding function. For example,
specify a default target environment for promotion and specify Y in the Chg field allows the user to
change the target environment when creating a request.
NOTE When using a standard or emergency path to identify the check out or
promotion location, the path values have precedence. The path value *USRPRF
defaults the development environment or library from the user profile. This
provides user-specific development locations, allowing you to control the default
promotion locations.
Check out from env Specify the default environment this user checks out from (usually a
production environment).
Development library Specify the default development library this user checks out to and
promotes from. The library must not be defined to an Implementer
environment. Development library and development environment are
mutually exclusive (personal development libraries are used when
environments are not). MKS suggests using environments in place of
personal libraries.
Development env Specify the default development environment this user checks out to and
promotes from. The development library and development environment
are mutually exclusive.
Crt rqs target env Specify the default primary environment this user promotes to (usually
production or QA environment.) Mutually exclusive of Crt rqs tgt env grp
field.
Crt rqs tgt env grp Specify the existing default target environment group when this user
creates a promotion request. Mutually exclusive of Crt rqs target env field.
Project reference Specify the name of the default project when checking out or creating a
promotion request. For example, when a developer is assigned to a
general project or a single project for a long period, the developer does
not have to repeatedly specify the project value.
If the project has a defined application path, that path is the default when
this user performs check out and create request. For details, see “Projectbased
Application Paths” on page 142.
Remove obj in from
library
Specify whether to automatically delete or retain objects in the from library
after successful promotion.
Y: Deletes objects after promotion. This is the default value.
N: Retains objects after promotion. Authority to override this default
when creating a request is defined in the User Controls fields on the
previous panel.
