CA Clarity PPM Stoplights Available in CA Clarity PPM List Web Parts

In CA Clarity PPM, you can define a display mapping for numeric attributes. Display mappings can define an icon mapping or a color mapping. Icon mappings map values or ranges of values to a certain iconic image that can then be optionally shown in CA Clarity PPM lists and forms instead of, or in addition to, the value. The set of available images is fixed in Clarity. Color mappings are icon mapping where the configuration declares the colors that represent a certain range of values. The system uses a standard set of images with the corresponding color. These images can be shown in lists and forms in CA Clarity PPM.

To make these images available in lists in CA Clarity PPM List Web Parts, all numeric attributes in CA Clarity PPM are represented twice in CA Clarity PPM. The attribute shown with the attribute name (for example, “MyAttribute”) is the value and the attribute shown with the trailing asterisk. For example, “MyAttribute*” is the iconic image. Columns for some stoplights appear by default in CA Clarity PPM List Web Parts. Modify the list view to display additional stoplight columns.
