Editing an existing action

Compliance actions can be remedial (invoking a commandset in ITNCM - Base) or informational (e-mail) by nature. Use this procedure to edit any of the types of compliance actions.

Before you begin

Use the Edit Action window of the User Interface to edit an existing compliance action. You use this window to edit the following types of compliance actions at any time:

  • E-mail compliance action
  • Remedial compliance action

About this task

When all changes have been saved, the user can activate the Policy Component as a new version. The previous version becomes inactive.

Follow these steps to edit an existing compliance action.

Procedure

  1. Access the Policy Actions tab, and select Actions.
  2. Right click on the Action you want to edit, and select "Edit Action". Alternatively, select the Action and click the Edit Action icon on the toolbar.

    The Edit Action window displays.

  3. Make any necessary edits to the compliance action.
  4. Click Finish to complete the modifications.

What to do next

The Revision Number on the modified compliance action increments by 1. The modified compliance action can now be activated.

It is not necessarily the compliance action with the highest Revision Number that is active, as the user can choose to activate a previous version .
