Adding "fields" to RRC artifacts
Is there a way - through modifying either process templats, artifact templates or other means - to add required fields to an artifact?
I see where, by convention, a field can be created in an artifact template, but I can't see a way to make that required. Nor can I see a way to expose the data in that field to use outside of the artifact. |

1. You can create an attribute group (on the admin tab in the rich client), then apply that admin group as part of an artifact or a template. That will make the field visible in the sidebar
2. The field and its values can be included in the project dashboard list view, which is customizable; by default only artifact name, author, last modified date, etc are shown. I should point out the following: * (1) is relevant to RRC v1 and v2; and (2) is relevant to RRC 2.0 beta 2. * in RRC it's not possible to require that a field be given a value -- only that the field exist. |
Actually it is possible to require a value. When editing a specific attribute in the attribute group editing dialog, there is a checkbox for "The attribute must have a value". (If this is checked, you must provide a default value).
