Manage CI Transactions

The CI Transaction Detail page displays all nonblank attributes in the transaction. If you clear the Hide Empty Values check box, all CI attributes are displayed. For additional attribute information, point to the attribute name.

You can do the following:

• View a transaction
• Create a transaction
• Edit the transaction
• Save or Cancel transaction changes (Edit mode)
• Reset the original transaction data (Edit mode)
• Show or hide data (Attributes tab)
• Set the target CI (Reconciliation tab)

After you save a single transaction, click the Reconciliation tab for that transaction to verify that there is no ambiguity in its intended target CI. If there is ambiguity, you can specify a target CI. When all data entry is complete, you can simulate loading the data to validate the data and check reconciliation.

Important! Data that you enter into the TWA using this web interface must follow the rules described in the section "How to load data into the TWA Using GRLoader".

The web UI does not validate case-sensitive data in the TWA, verify that the values you enter exactly match the lookup values. Alternately, when you run GRLoader, you can specify the –I option to enable case insensitive lookups.

Note: Even though the tgt_id or superseded_by are stored as UUIDs in the transaction, they are displayed as CI names in the web interface.
