Setting general project options

1. Choose Tools > Administration > Project Options.

The Project Options dialog box opens with the General category selected.

2. Enter a Project name and Description.

3. Select any Login Options to give TestTrack Pro, TestTrack RM, and TestTrack TCM users access to the project.

4. Select any Workflow Options.

• Show inactive states and events in reports, filters, list windows, etc. displays inactive states and events in the Add/Edit Report dialog box, the filter Restrictions dialog box, and the list window column shortcut menu.
• Only show active events in the activities menu and workflow toolbar displays active events in the activities menu and events toolbar. Only events that can be entered for the current items are displayed. Select this option if there are a large number of events in your workflow or you want to decrease user confusion. This option also applies to the TestTrack Web workflow links.
• Generate system comments for automation rules automatically adds system comments for automation rules to items. These comments take up additional storage space on the TestTrack Server, which can result in slower performance. Disabling this option does not stop generating all system comments, such as comments for escalation rules marked to be applied once per item, but substantially decreases the number of comments saved to the server.

5. Select Enable stamping to allow users to insert stamps in multi-line text fields, such as the issue description. Stamps help users identify comments added to fields. See Inserting stamps in text fields.

Enter the Stamp format. You can enter any value or use the following field codes:

• %LGDT%—Current date using the long date format defined in the operating system
• %SHDT%—Current date using the short date format defined in the operating system
• %USNM%—User’s last name, first name, and middle initial defined in TestTrack

6. Click OK to save the changes.
