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