Using the Application Designer to Clone and Modify Offering dialogs

Offering dialogs that are stored in the Offerings application (pmscoffer.xml) can be modified and cloned using the Application Designer.

These Offering dialogs can be accessed from various Service Request applications, including Offering Catalog, Self Service Center, Shopping Cart, and View Catalog Requests applications.

A sample dialog is provided in the Offerings application (id=SampleDialogCR), which can be cloned to create new offering dialogs in Application Designer. A new Clone Dialog action is available from the Select Action menu in the Application Designer for this purpose.

This allows Service Designers to create and modify offering dialogs contained in the Offerings application using the Application Designer instead of having to export the library.xml file, modify the dialog in XML, and then import it into the application.

Note: If you are upgrading from a previous version of the product and you wish to edit your offering dialog using the Application Designer, and the dialog is contained in the library.xml file, you should first manually move it into the Offering application (pmscoffer.xml). This will allow you to edit it using the Application Designer.
