Change classificationsChange classificationsChange classifications identify and characterize similar changes. In addition to changes, you can classify several objects, such as assets, locations, items, and sales orders.
You can add a classification to a change on the Specification tab of the Changes (SP) application.
There are two types of classifications; global classifications, and customer-specific classifications. Global classifications can be added to any change, including changes with no customer associations. Customer-specific classifications are relevant only to certain customers. A change can use customer-specific classifications only if the customer (or parent of the customer) on the change is associated with the classification.
Attributes define the characteristics of a classification. When you classify a change, attributes of the classification are copied to the Specification tab as determined by the customer of the change.
There are two types of attributes; global attributes and customer-specific attributes. All changes can use global attributes, including changes with no customer associations. Customer-specific attributes are relevant only to certain customers and are copied to the Specification tab when the customer (or parent of the customer) on the change is associated with the attribute.
