Issue/Introduction

We just upgraded Endevor to v18.  In v17, when we change the value of the 'Build Using Map' option in Quick Edit to 'Y', exit Quick Edit, when go back in, the option would reset back to 'N'.  It does not do that in v18.  How do I make it reset back to 'N'?  

Environment

Release : 18.0

Component : CA Endevor Software Change Manager

Resolution

This variable QE_BUILD_USING_ MAP was changed to be saved and restored for V18 so that it is "sticky". V18 Quick Eidt use the value from user profile (saved from the last Quick Eidt session). 


A possible solution is to customize the primary Quick Edit panel to match site's ENDICNFG setting, this is panel ENDIE110 in CSIQPENU.  Site's system programmer can add something like this if/else statement after the commented out setting of "EEVPRMOD" in the delivered panel:

/* &EEVPRMOD = B        */                                
IF (&FIRSTIME = 'N')                                      
else                                                      
    &FIRSTIME = 'N'                                       
    &EEVSRCHM = 'N'        /* set build using map to n */ 


This will set the field to "N" the first time but not change it for the rest of the session.
