See Attributes Tab/Page for how to change the user-defined attributes for the requests.
NOTE An attribute is only copied if it has been specified in the Prime Mapping in the Administration Console for the request type(s) involved. You can change these attributes if you wish.
NOTE The detailed description of the new request is either copied from the detailed description of the priming request, or from another attribute, depending on what has been specified in the Prime Mappings defined in the Administration Console.

NOTE You can save a request as draft without having to complete all the mandatory fields. If you click the Submit as Draft button the request is added to your draft list even if there are mandatory fields that have not been entered.
