Value (Create Change Request)

The following changes are possible for a value:
 

1. Browse
2. Change text
3. Create Value
4. Remove Value
5. Reactivate
6. Replace
7. Create CVA
8. The change requests for the relation of values to value lists/properties (Assign Value, Withdraw Value) are to be found in the change request chapter of value lists

The textual information of a value is edited without changing the concept, but rather to correct mistakes. If the concept of the class is changed, in most cases a new clas has to be created instead.

• NOTE: Change Textual Information is possible in any release.

In order to create a CR for changing the textual information of a CC proceed as follows:

1. Select menu entry Change Text under User/Change Request/Value.
