2571633 - Revised item by Connector updated in Curricula and retraining is not maintained

Symptom

When using Connector to update an Item, the Connector created a new revision and productionized it. How to maintain retrainings for Curriculum?

  2. Go to the new revision of the item;
  3. Go to tab Substitutes;
  4. Click in "Add Substitutes" (The green + button);
  5. Search for the previous revision of the item (make sure to search for inactive items as well, as the previous revision should be inactive);
  6. Select the Completion Status and check the "Add" checkbox for the last and second last revisions;
  7. Review the other fields according to KBA 2177797 that describes the behavior of setting an Effective Date and the other options in the Substitute relationship;
  8. After setting everything correctly, click in "Add";
  9. Now make the item production ready by clicking in Productionize in the new revision of the item;
  10. Check all the options, making sure that the option "Do you wish to update curricula potentially affected by this new item revision;

  4. Add all the item revisions you want (in you case, the two or three latest) by selecting "Add";
