My organization is using ALM 11.0 and we're currently testing out patch 14. We were hoping that it would resolve some issues that we were having, but it seems that there is no solution. We are using 2 projects; one as a global repository (A) that maintain the latest and greatest version of approved artifacts and the other (B) as our project working instance for work in progress.
When we are importing from A to B, with patch 14, we can now bring over only the artifacts that we intend to use rather than all artifacts associated to a folder (pre patch 14). When we go to synchronize B back to A, the artifacts nicely synchronize even though the folder was never imported.
Now our problem is following our import from A to B, if we add brand new artifacts to B the new artifacts do not show up in the compare when comparing current entities or baselines and of course the synchronization back to A totally ignores anything new that has been added if it isn't associated to a folder that was derived from A.
Is there any help for our dilemma? Can't figure out a way to resolve this issue. Any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks!
