Promoting a Defect Action to Open

When you promote a defect action from the Evaluate to the Open state, you define a candidate model or committed model version where the fix will be implemented, and who needs to make and verify that fix.

You also use this dialog box when demoting a rejected defect action to the "Open" state.

Required access roles:

  • App-specific: Defect Engineer
