Associating Inventory with Requests across Projects

Code Insight 6.14.2 SP2

In some cases, there may be a need to associate an inventory item to a request located in a different project such as the Global Request Project. This type of association can be made if you have Product Catalog configured and the inventory item and request are both associated with the same Product Catalog item.

To make the associate a request to an item in another Product Catalog product, do the following:

1. Associate the Product Catalog Item with the given project.
2. Associate the Product Catalog item with the request.
3. From the associated project, create an inventory item that matches the request component, version and license.
4. Schedule a Full Review for the inventory item and select the option to Associate the Request.
5. The request is available in the search results based on the Product Catalog association.
