Introduction

In each request type, you can define up to two Release fields, known as Release 1 and Release 2. You can configure each Release field for a request type on this page. A Release relates to an Item entry in the system that defines the release version of an item.

The Release fields must be used together with the corresponding Item fields. Release 1 is for Item 1 while Release 2 is for Item 2. After the user has selected an item for Item 1 or Item 2, the user can then select the release version of the selected item in the corresponding Release field. For more information on the Item fields, see Customizing Request Type Fields - Item 1 & Item 2.
