The idea is most of the CIs in general are created using automated methods like discovery and aie jobs instead of manual creation of CIs. My understanding is since it needs reconciliation jobs to complete CI creation, creating CIs should be minimized during the business hrs. The search button allows you to search existing CIs and relate them to the change tkt. In 7.6.03 and upwards there are a few options. Unfortunately I do not have access to a 7.5 environment but you can verify the following:
1.Upon clicking search button on relationship screen for request type option of configuration item, it opens a CI search screen. On that screen below the table field there is an Explore CI button. You can click that to open atrium explorer which you can use to create new CIs. 2. In the Change Mgmt console in the Advanced functions there is menu button for Manage CIs. 3. Optionally you can write custom code to display a button to open Atrium Explorer. Should be an easy task.
