Hello,
Thanks for reply... but I guess I have to be more clear... When I said "OOTB (Out-Of-The-Box)" I mean not BMC objects, but other forms and workflows created by ourselves. For example, forms named ABC:Customer, ABC:Whatever.... and so on... I always understood "OOTB" objects as forms and workflows created as new objects, not modifying BMC/System objects (such as User, Groups, etc...) - If it's not correct please let me know. J Considering that I have an active link that calls a Run Process running a script on a server A (/opt/server_A/script.sh)... This is an object that certainly will have to be modified during Production server (considering Production server named as "server_B").. so... my new Run Process will expect the script on another filesystem (/opt/server_B/script.sh).. My question is... Must I have to create an overlay of this Active Link just to change these path?? Or should I convert this "Unmodified" objects using "BPCU" feature?? I really confused about it. 'Cause I can't imagine always create an orverlay for every objects that we have built (not considering the system/BMC objects)... Thanks. Please let me know If I was not clear at all.

So yes, that's expected. The objects are changeable - what Developer Studio will do if you want to change them is make an overlay of the object and allow you to modify the overlay. The OOTB object will remain unmodified and your overlay object will be the actual object you modify. Of course, it's recommended that you do not modify BMC OOTB objects at all - but overlays will allow you to do so if there's no other way to accomplish what you want to do. A better option, though, is to extend the BMC applications by adding your own new fields or workflow vs. modifying BMC objects. -David J.

J I'd like to know if It's normal all the OOTB objects from version 7.1 become "Unmodified" (Customization Type) in 7.6.04 on DevStudio... P.S.: All of our 7.1 objects were imported on 7.6.04 server as "Unmodified" (including Forms, Filters, ActiveLinks, etc...) Is that right? Is there anyway to make these objects changeable? I have downloaded the plug-in that converts objects to Custom... Can I use this plug-in to convert all of my "Unmodified" objects to "Custom" objects? Thanks.
