Delivering changes to your team

After you share a change set with the current workspace, you can deliver your changes to a flow target so that they are available to other team members. The other team members can then accept your changes into their workspaces.

Before you begin

  • You should be familiar with project areas, configuration spaces, snapshots, workspaces, and change sets, which are described in Management of shared resources.
  • You must be logged in to a project, and you must be in a workspace that is associated with the current configuration space.
  • This content applies to version 4.0.3 or later. In the Configuration Management application, you must have permission to merge configurations. For more information about setting permissions in the Configuration Management application, see the link to the related task at the end of this topic.

Procedure

  1. Open the workspace that contains the changes to deliver. On the toolbar of a lifecycle management product, click Configuration Management and click Edit configuration_name to open the current workspace, or click Explore to open a different workspace.
  2. In the workspace editor, on the toolbar in the upper right, click the Deliver Outgoing Changes icon.
  3. On the Deliver Outgoing Changes page, verify the changes to deliver. In the Result pane in the upper right of the page, note the name of the flow target, which is the configuration to which your changes are delivered.
  4. In the Result pane, click Share merged result.
  5. Optional: Verify that the flow target for your current workspace contains the changes that you delivered: click Configuraton Management, and select the flow target.
    Tip: If the flow target name is not in the list, select Search for More from the menu, and in the Select a Configuration window, specify the change set name, partial name, or the wildcard character (*).
  6. In the Configuration Explorer view, find the flow target and verify that your changes were delivered.

Results

The changes are now available in the flow target of the current workspace. Other team members or project teams can now accept these delivered changes into their workspaces.
