    Impersonate User

    An admin User could select a function to impersonate a different User in the system. For example a User that has limited or restricted access. This would allow them to test and verify certain functions are working correctly without relying on clie...

    We have a Data Module set up using a Data Server. This Data Server has two different connections that have many of the same schemas loaded, but the connections have different permissions. Certain users have access to one connection while other use...

    Would like Business rules to not allow a second click of the activate button or a flag be set that activation has started and not allow other attempts to activate again until it is complete.

    In the Catalog section, for a certain asset there's section "Related Items" - it has headers. I would like to use the headers for sorting. Especially based on "Item type". Now they seem to be in random order.

    z/OSMF workflow artifacts for Db2 UPDATE and ACTIVATE process

    IBM z/OSMF workflows are being improved to be used for Db2 installation and migration. It would be nice if we have also the artifacts for the other CLIST processes: UPDATE and ACTIVATE. The UPDATE process is what we use the most.
