Initial Setup for Change Packages

In order to create a Change Package that will process and migrate STEP configuration changes, the basic change package configuration must first be in place as defined below.

Change Packages functionality was introduced in version 7.4.

1. On System Setup, select Object Types and Structures > Basic Object Types, and verify Change Package exists.

2. Under Setup Group type root right-click to create a New Object Type.

3. Under Basic Object Types node, return to the Change Package object.
4. On the References tab, click Add Parent link. Select the folder you created for change packages under Setup Group type root and click the Select button.

5. On the Maintain menu, navigate to Insert, and select Setup Group Root to open the 'Create Setup Group Root' dialog.

6. Select the Change Packages object type that you created above, enter an ID and Name, and click the Create button. This creates a folder in System Setup where you can then create individual change packages.
