Managing Versions, Items, and Paths › Rules for Creating Item Paths › Create an Item Path

Create an Item Path

You can create item paths in existing data views.

Follow these steps:

1. Navigate to the data view.
2. Right-click a view path, and select create item path process from the shortcut menu.

   The create item path process dialog appears, and the Parent field displays the view path you selected.

   Note: The lowercase italic text indicates the process dialog name by the process type, since the process execution dialog names differ to each site.

3. Enter a name for the new path in the Name field.
4. Specify a placement option:

   Trunk

   Creates a trunk version for refactoring changes.

   Note: This option is identical to the check-out for update process.

   Branch

   Creates a branch version for refactoring changes.

   Note: This option is identical to the check-out for concurrent update process.

5. Use the Package drop-down list, or click the Package button and use the Select a Package dialog, to select a package in the current state to associate with the new path.

   A package association is selected.

6. Click OK.

   The item path is created.
