Add Comment To Baseline

(imported topic written by SystemAdmin)

We are trying to add comments to baselines with no luck. We can right click on the baseline and add the comments, but they vanish after saving them. I’m guessing comments weren’t designed for baselines, however, this is the method by which we would like to track changes to the baseline, since there is no built in version control in BigFix.

Can anyone else confirm the behavior we are seeing and possibly suggest how they are accomplishing documenting change management to baselines?

Seems like a bug… what happens when you go to the Details of the baseline and hit “Add comment”?

You are right. I tried it but it doesn’t work for me either. this is definitely a bug. But you can add comment on the description page by right clicking your baseline, select edit and select “description” (this is what I always use. You can either create a table in words document and paste it in the description column. You can then track your update like that .

Ben, doing it that way works. Should have tried that first before posting. It was habit to right click.

I guess the right click is indeed a bug though.
