Documentation

Definition

First date that is taken into consideration during the structure explosion.

The system only brings change statuses and change numbers that are valid on this date or will be valid at a later date into the baseline.

Use

You use the lower date limit to ensure that change statuses and change numbers whose validity runs out before this date do not come into the baseline.

Dependencies

You define the lower date limit in Customizing for Configuration Management in the step Application Control -> Define Explosion Profile. This value is used as the default value in all baselines. However, you can overwrite the value in a baseline.
