Change baseline attributes

Applies to User Roles:

System Administrator

You can change the attributes that make up a baseline record by selecting different fields from the device type join table. You cannot change a baseline record's device type after you create it. If you want to select a different device type, you must create a new baseline record.

Note You can only modify attributes of baseline records in the Analysis, Design, and Develop states.

To change baseline attributes, follow these steps:

  1. Click Configuration Management > Resources > Baseline.

  2. Use search or advanced search to find one or more records.
  3. Select the baseline record that has attributes you want to change from the list of search results.

  4. Click Modify Attributes. Service Manager opens the Baseline Attributes wizard.

  5. Follow the onscreen instructions to complete the wizard. Service Manager updates the baseline record to use the new attributes you select.

    Note Service Manager only displays fields from the device table and the associated device type.
