There is an issue where deleting a field named “A” within a specific tracker and then trying to recreate a new field with the same name results in an error. How can I recreate a field with the same name? Current Version : 3.0.0.2

Hi,The default text format of the description of release items is "Plain".  How can I set the default format to "Wiki"? I could not find any tracker configuration or application configuration entry to address this topic. Thank you in advance. CB version: 2.2.1.1

Has anyone migrated from Polarion to Codebeamer? I've had success with the ReqIF export-import flow, but I don't get any history with that import.

Hi, we are using the "Import Status" to identify between releases of the supplier what has changed between two deliveries. Unfortunately the import status is not automatically cleared when importing a new ReqIF.What does this mean? We have to go through 50k items (26 trackers) and clear the status. We also tried this via script but this takes longer then doing it by hand. Is there any best practice on how to do this smarter/faster? Is there even any update planned on improving this in the import mechanism directly? Thank you,Manuel 

I have a report where I am using the historical view to show trackers at a specific baseline. Currently, I have only been able to display one baseline at a time. Is there a way to show multiple baselines in the same report? Thanks,Brian Kampling - Source Allies

Hello community,Is there a way to share users across multiple projects?We have several projects where trackers are connected via reference fields. However, if a user is not a member of both the source and target projects, they either cannot see the referenced items or encounter errors when editing trackers — even in the project where they do have access.Ideally, we would like to avoid manually managing the same users across multiple projects. While we understand that not all users should have access to every connected project, it would be acceptable if broader access is required for reference resolution to work properly.Is there an option or configuration that allows tracker references to function regardless of project membership? I’ve looked through the settings but haven’t found a solution.Thank you in advance for your help!

Hi all,I was searching in the documentation but couldn´t find it. I´m trying to have a computed field which takes the ID of the referenced items that are linked through an association with the type "derived from". Is this possible and if yes, how? https://support.ptc.com/help/codebeamer/r3.1/en/index.html#page/codebeamer/user_guide/ug_suspectedref_funcs.html 

Hello team,Is there a way to improve the "Access Denied" message shown to users who do not have access, by providing clear contact information for support?For example, a user receives a link from a colleague, but it doesn't work. The user then struggles to find out whom to contact, especially if the colleague also doesn't know.Currently, the message only advises the user to check if they are signed in with the correct account or to contact the project administrator — but it doesn't specify who that is.Improving this message with a direct contact (e.g., key user, support team, or distribution list) could help reduce confusion and support requests.

Hello PTC community,We were performing the Codebeamer and Azure DevOps integration using the "New External Repository".After doing the configuration when we clicked on the Validation it got validated and we were able to create the new external repository.  Everything went well. But after trying to "Scm repository update synchronization" we are facing the "Error while running repository synchronization job, For: Azure-repository". We are using the Codebeamer version 2.2.0.2 but i have not found any article in the knowledge base addressing this issue.

I am working on a computed field in Codebeamer and need to fetch the item ID from the Default Working Set using a formula.I have tried a few approaches (like this.id, this.globalId, and filtering workingSets()), but they are not returning the expected result. My goal is specifically to retrieve the item ID that corresponds to the Default Working Set.Could you please share the correct formula or suggest the right way to achieve this?Thanks in advance for your support.

# Detailed Explanation of Upgrading to CodeBeamer 3.0 On April 1st, PTC released the CodeBeamer 3.0 version, and many users are eager to try it out. However, whether upgrading from an older version or performing a fresh installation of the 3.0 version, they have encountered numerous issues. Below, we will provide a detailed guide on how to upgrade from CodeBeamer 2.2.1.0 to CodeBeamer 3.0.0.1, addressing various problems during the upgrade and installation process. ## 1. The Upgrade Path for CodeBeamer The first question we need to address is whether it's possible to directly upgrade to CodeBeamer 3.0 based on the current version. According to the CodeBeamer upgrade path table, upgrading to CodeBeamer 3.0 can only be done from the CodeBeamer 2.2.1.X version. If your version is lower than 2.2.1.0, you must first upgrade to at least version 2.2.1.0 as a transitional step. Similarly, the 2.0.0.x version cannot be directly upgraded to 2.2.1.x; it must first be upgraded to version 2.1.0.x.

Good day,How to construct a trigger rule for following usecase: Requirement State CHANGES from Published to InWork?I was able to construct a rule for a State[New] = InWork case. But for me Published->InWork and OtherState->InWork are not the same. My trigger should be invoked only for "Published->InWork" case and not for cases like "OtherState->InWork". How to achive this kind of "state transition management"?Thanks

Hello! I notice that in the overhauled Review Hub UI, only usernames are shown in comments and when tagging people, rather than showing their full real name. This makes it very difficult to know who is actually commenting or finding the person you want to tag. Is it possible to somehow make this display the full name again?
