Add a Status/Entity Association

Use this option to associate a user with an existing Change Log Entry. This does not change the data stored for either the user or the Change Log Entry; instead, it creates a junction between the two.

This function might be useful, for example, if an entity was changed by a user who was not signed on to CA Endevor/DB, to relate the change to the appropriate user within the CCDB.

To use this option, follow these steps:

  1. Specify option 6 on the User Functions screen (NDVRU700).
  2. Identify the user you want to associate with an existing Change Log Entry, and the entity for which the Change Log Entry was recorded. You can provide full user and entity identification, or you can leave any or all of the identifier fields blank (and supply them in the Detail screen).

    You can further identify the specific Change Log Entry by providing the start date, start time, and action code.

  3. Press Enter.

    CA Endevor/DB returns the User/Change Log Entry/Entity/CCID Detail screen (NDVRM720), which contains the information for the user, entity (entity descriptor), and any change log selection criteria supplied on the User Functions screen.

  4. To identify the user and Change Log Entry being associated, enter the user name; Change Log date, time, and action code; and entity name, type, and version.
  5. Press Enter to join the user and Change Log Entry.

    Note that the CCID Information at the bottom of the screen is for display only and is only filled in if the Change Log Entry is uniquely defined (and is associated with a CCID).
