In addition to the dependency created when you add or insert a template, you can define a dependency on a template that is not on a level directly below the specified template. In the following example, a dependency can be defined for the Assign Telephone Number template so that a change will not be created from it until a change created from the Finish Paperwork template is closed.
To define this type of dependency, you would first select the template (Assign Telephone Number in this example) and click the Edit link.
In the Hierarchy Template screen, select the Depends on Closure of Changes Created From link on the Advanced tab and select the template from which a change must be closed before a change will be created from current template. Continuing with the example, you would select the Finish Paperwork template.
Note: When you use the Edit link to change a template, the change will not be reflected in any other hierarchies that use the template. Changes already created from the template are not affected; however, future changes created from the template will reflect the change.
