Update Package Status

Elements in Enterprise Architect can be assigned a current status, such as Proposed, Validated or Mandatory.

Often a complete package structure is updated from one status to another (or released) at the same time. To help facilitate this, Enterprise Architect supports a 'bulk' update of element status at the same time.

Update Element Status for a Complete Package Structure

To update element status for a complete package structure, follow the steps below:

1. In the Project Browser, right-click on the package to update. The context menu displays.
2. Select the Package Control | Update Package Status menu option. The Status Update dialog displays.
    
   
3. Select:

• The new status
• Whether to recursively descend the package tree
• Whether to include elements
• Whether to include element requirements
• Whether to include element constraints

4. Click on the OK button. Enterprise Architect updates all required elements to the new status.
