Creating a New Promotion State

Note: You can create promotion states only if you have the required access rights, which are found at the project or view level.
  1. Choose StarTeam > View > Promotion from the main menu. The Properties dialog box opens.
  2. Select the Promotion node. The Promotion page of the Properties dialog box displays the states currently created for this view. The final state displays at the top of the list.
  3. Click Add to open the Promotion State dialog box.
  4. Type the Name and Description of the promotion state.
  5. Assign a view label to this state by selecting it from the View Label drop-down list. The labels are listed in reverse chronological order, based on the time at which they were created. You can change the label when appropriate by using this dialog box or assign it to the next state by promoting it.
  6. Click OK to close the Promotion State dialog box, and OK again to close the Promotion dialog box.
