User Interface Changes

In CA APM Release 11.3.4, relationships and links are displayed and modified in separate sections in the user interface. In Release 12.8, relationships and links are combined into a single entity that is displayed and modified in the same section in the user interface.

Some of the menu items for relationship names in Release 12.8 are different from Release 11.3.4. The following chart lists each supported Release 11.3.4 relationship and its associated Release 12.8 relationship menu item. Some relationship menu items have a different label when viewing the relationship from the reverse direction. For example, the Company Entitlement relationship is displayed as Company Allocation when viewed from the software asset and Software Allocation when viewed from the company.
