Setting ClearQuest Defects as Duplicate
Quality Center Synchronizer cannot set the state of ClearQuest defects to
Duplicate as ClearQuest requires the ID of the defect which is being
duplicated to set the state of a defect to Duplicate. Quality Center
Synchronizer is not able to determine from the Quality Center defect which
defect is being duplicated.
To enable the Synchronizer to set the state of a ClearQuest defect to
Duplicate, you must create a new state of type CHANGE_STATE and map
defects to this state rather than to Duplicate.
To create a new state for mapping duplicate defects:
1 Open the ClearQuest Designer.
2 In the Actions window, add a new state, for example, TD_Duplicate.
