Review the Add-In Before Applying

After installing the PMO Accelerator add-in, review the add-in items before applying them.

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 changes to installed add-in items and new add-in items.

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.

If you have previously configured views, the configurations are preserved and are not overwritten during installation. You can decide which new or updated views to apply. Use the details page of the add-in in Studio to select new or modified items and apply them. Applying a Studio object overwrites the existing configuration of the Studio object views.

For more information about how PMO Accelerator configures views, see Object Views.

The Studio Add-In Details page lists all of the items that are included with the add-in. The following fields display on the page:

Name

Indicates the add-in name in a hierarchical relationship determined by dependencies among the items.

Status

Indicates if the add-in item is applied or not in CA Clarity PPM.

Values:

• Not Installed. Items that are new to the add-in version, items that you did not apply from a previous add-in version, or items that produced an error upon install or apply.
• Upgrade Ready. Items that you applied from a previous add-in version that have an update to the item in the current add-in version or views updated via the add-in that you have also modified via Studio.

  Important! Consider the configurations you have made to items before applying them. Applying modified items overwrites your configurations.

• Installed. Items that are installed.

Values: Object, Lookup, Page, Tab, Portlet, Query, Custom View, Menu, Group, Project, Process, Role, and Report/Job

ID

Displays the add-in item code, which is the identifier of the applied add-in item.
