What are the steps for developing a custom workflow in CLM to enforce attributes based on conditions?

Hi All,

We are running IBM CLM version 5.0.0 and I have been tasked with developing a custom defect workflow that looks that the value of 2 custom fields and if the values of those 2 fields match specific values then a 3rd field will become required. I am an expert HP ALM admin / user and this task would be simple to complete in HP ALM but I'm having difficulties figuring out the exact process in CLM.

Through my research I have found some resources which point me in the right direction but I'm still having gaps in my understanding of the actual steps I need to take.

Resource Links:

• Forum question: Do you have a script for enforcing attributes based on conditions?
• Attributes customization: Cusomizing work items

Im sure these tasks would be simple for an experienced CLM administrator however I'm having trouble finding the end to end steps to complete this process.

My Questions:

• In order to develop custom workflow scripts do I need to install eclipse and use an eclipse client?
• If I do need to run eclipse and the eclipse client where do I find the versions and setup directions?
• Is there any configuration that needs to happen on the CLM Jazz server?
• From my research I've seen JavaScript as what looks to be the language on a few scripts, is there a workflow developers guide?

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
