Cannot Locate a Definition of a Tree Object

Symptom:

I want to find the definition of a tree object and understand why I would use it. I cannot easily find a topic when I access the Knowledge Center from the Investigator.

Solution:

Each discipline-based User Guide includes topics to define tree objects and explain why and how you would use them.

To narrow your search and Knowledge Center results, complete the following steps:

  1. Open the Investigator.
  2. Select a discipline from the drop-down list.
  3. Navigate to and select a tree entry.

    Object data appears in the center pane.

  4. Highlight the object name from the center pane, and then click the question mark icon.

    The Knowledge Center opens with topics that match the highlighted text.

    Note: Customer-added content appears at the top of the search results. So, scroll down to see CA Chorus documentation topics, if necessary.

Example: Search for a Security Object

As a new security administrator, you want to learn how you can use the Investigator to manage your daily tasks. As you maneuver through the Investigator, you see the CA ACF2 Scope XREF field under Definitions. You are not certain how to use this specific object so you click the item. The center pane displays data for this object. You then highlight the CA ACF2 Scope XREF heading above the table, and click the question mark. The Knowledge Center displays several topics specific to this object.
