To view or edit project properties:

Select a project.
Select Project | Project Flags.
On the General tab, select a Product ID and Project ID.
Optionally, select the Global project, the Default Project or the Current Project as the existing project.
Click the Options tab and do the following:

Select Branch if you want Dimensions to add a period before the new revision number for new item revisions created in this project.
Select Do not branch if you want Dimensions to increment the previous revision number by one for new item revisions created in this project.
Select Allow users to override default revision number if you want the user to be able to enter a different revision number from the one generated by Dimensions when creating new item revisions in this project.
Select Lock Project if you want to prevent users from creation new item revisions in this project.
For Change Management Rules, select Use item type settings, Always enabled or Always disabled.

See About Project Options for more details of these options.

If you select Use local stages, the stage of an item revision in this project/stream is not affected as a result of actioning even when stages in the GSL are associated with states in its lifecycle. The stage in this project/stream can only be changed as a result of promoting and demoting.

NOTE Once you have selected this option for a project or stream, you cannot subsequently deselect it.

If you do not select this option, then when the state of an item revision is changed as a result of actioning, its stage in this project/stream will also be changed.

For details of these options, see About Project Options.

Click the Named Branches tab and select named branches to be available for future revisions.
Click OK.
