Why am I not able to discard changes sets

Thanks I started the paper trail. Ranted in each of the work items the open Enhancement 20814 which is 7 years old by the way. Which is associated to an original defect 2198 which you did point out is 2006 8 years old. That was closed as resolved by the enhancement which is not assigned to anyone and sits in backlog. I am sorry but this is not an enhancement it is broken functionality that has plagued the application since the start. I opened an RFE and PMR since have to in order to open an RFE. They will both I am sure get closed out as functions as designed and maybe some day will be fixed. But at least I tried..... This would go along way to resolve angst for developers and good will all along...... Thanks

Thanks for starting the RFE process.   WRT the age of the original request, that just means it never got enough support from the user community yet to have it make it into plan.  Also WRT defect vs. enhancement, that has a formal definition ... a defect is functionality that is not working as documented, while an enhancement is everything else (by that definition, this is an enhancement request).   The severity of the work item indicates how important it is to the submitter ... and there are high severity enhancements that have higher plan priority than low severity defects.
