Issue/Introduction

On an Objective Blueprint, when attempting to create an 'Attribute Update' Rule, and using the UI Action 'Required Attributes', the option to select the Description attribute is missing.

This attribute is selectable for every other Object that's been checked, this seems isolated to Objective.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE - 

1. Create an Objective object Blueprint.

2. Go to the Rules tab, and create a new Rule.

3. For the Rule Type select 'Attribute Update'

4. Select a Target Attribute, and for UI Actions select 'Requiring Attributes'. 

 

EXPECTED RESULTS:

 

Description would be an attribute that can be selected

 

ACTUAL RESULTS:

 

Description isn't available for this specific Object

 

WORKAROUND - A Process could be used to enforce this rule

Environment

Clarity 16.3.1, 16.3.2

Resolution

By design an attribute that is long string/Rich Text attribute will not be an option for requiring on the blueprint.
