Some trackers are classified as “Work Item” (e.g. Requirement, Test Run, Issue, Epic, User Story), some as “Configuration Item” (e.g. Test Case, Test Set, Release, Configuration Items).Is there a description what is meant with “Work Item” and what with “Configuration Item”? What is technically the difference between a “Work Item” and “Configuration Item”? How do I know if a tracker type is “Work Item” or “Configuration Item”? Why belongs the tracker type “Requirement” to “Work Item” and not to “Configuration Item”?BR,Markus

I’m having issues with the permissions required to run a test case. I tried different configurations but for now only admin can run a test case. When the run is initiated, then a tester can finish the test run. Regular uses don’t have the menu to run a test case into the test run tracker. Is there something specific in the permissions that need to be enabled?

I am using Codebeamer Release 3.3 and Datecode3.3.0.0 I'm installing Codebeamer on a virtual machine and I'm having trouble with the license: in the wizard I'm asked to create a new account at https://codebeamer.com/cb - which does not work because the only thing I can do here is log in. So I tried to use my ptc partner user and it does not work either. Has anyone had issues like this? Thank you!

I have an edge case where I need to impersonate another user in a workflow transition. The documentation refers to the executeAs feature (https://support.ptc.com/help/codebeamer/r3.3/en/#page/codebeamer/user_guide/ug_workflow_actions.html#wwID0ETBO1) and I have configured that in the application configuration and I even restarted the server but I don’t see that option showing up as an action or option. Where is this supposed to appear when configuring the workflow?

Hello! I have a question regarding exporting information from the .supervisors type field.When using a template, I'm using this field syntax: <<item.supervisors» Of course it’s working, but it’s exporting the username (like X3Z5S3) instead of real name (like John Smith) as it is in codebeamer item view.Is there any way to convert the way how the template handle this situation? Thank you

I am using Codebeamer Release 3.1 and Datecode3.1.0.0 We have a performance problem in a specific project due to high numbers of link between items with another project and a little complexity for computed fields. This cause the error 504 Gateway timeout and it becomes impossible to edit/create items. We already have increased the time to reach timeout up to 300 seconds. We would like to reduce the loading time of the items, not increasing more time. It's a blocking point and we must improve the performance as soon as possible. Here are the errors that I faced HTTP Error 504: Gateway Timeout

A user deleted 3,700 items from a tracker. What is the safest way to restore all items and preserve the hierarchical structure of the tracker? I can only see at most 500 items at a time in the Trash so I don’t know if I just select the first 500, restore them, then repeat until complete. Will that process recreate the tracker as it was originally structured?
