Change View

The Change view shows all the actions performed on a process item or workspace (check-in) change package.

You can open the Change view by taking one of the following actions:
  • Select Window > Show View > Change
  • Select Window > Show View > Other, and choose Change from the Server Explorer tree node.

Every time you make an update to a file or folder, there will be an entry in the details of the new Change view. It shows a description of the change or action performed, for example "Workspace Changes on <date>". The Change view also lists the process item used for the check in. Whenever a process item is used or specified for check in, a change package is created even if the process item is not directly changed, for example, "set to fixed as part of the check in".
