Issue/Introduction

Since upgrading , developers are unable to sign in elements that are signed out....a C1U0900E message is generated, with APPROVAL REQUIRED, even though we have never been set up to require approval for a signin.  

This was discovered when someone needed to sign out a program that was signed out to someone else, but it also happens when a developer attempts to sign in a program that is signed out to himself/herself.   

Environment

Release : All 

Component : CA Endevor Software Change Manager

Resolution

Part of the the upgrade process is to review the ENCOPTBL  to  ensure that all the options you had set in a previous release are set in the current table

  The option below if enabled allows actions to be performed without a package.

*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------* 
* ENHOPT ALLOW_NON_PKG_ACTIONS=(ON,00) * 

 

To allow the SIGNIN action without packages, then you need to set the option to:

       

                  ENHOPT ALLOW_NON_PKG_ACTIONS=(ON,16) 

 

  Once the table has been reviewed and updated, re-assemble and re-link.
