Apply the Add-In

Perform the steps described in this section if you have an existing installation of the add-in, or if you have previously configured CA Clarity PPM Studio objects.

Follow these steps:

  1. Log in to CA Clarity PPM.
  2. Open Administration, and from Studio, click Add-Ins.

    The Add-Ins page appears.

  3. Click the Accelerator: Program Management Office add-in (ID: csk).

    The Add-In Details page appears.

  4. Review the items in the list and select the items that are “Upgrade Ready” or “Not Installed.”

    Note: By default, when you upgrade to the current add-in version, the items that are new or modified are pre-selected. If you do not want to apply all items, from the Add-In Details page, unselect all pre-selected items by clicking in the box at the top of the page to the left of the Name column heading one time to select all items and a second time to unselect all items. After that select the items you want to apply. Selected items with dependency on other items are also selected.

    For a list of the items updated in PMO Accelerator Release 3.1 and a description of the updates, see the PMO Accelerator Release Notes.

  5. (Upgrade Only) For all active process instances with the "Upgrade Ready" status, cancel and delete the process instance.

    Contact your CA Clarity PPM administrator or see the Administration Guide for more information.

  6. Click Apply.

    Note: Selected items with dependencies on other items are also updated.

    A list of updated items displays on the confirmation or install page.

  7. Click Yes to update or install the items.

    If a user has previously changed an item listed on the confirmation or install page, publish the item before displaying the update to the users.

    See the Studio Developer’s Guide for more information.
