Propagating Information from the Problem Report
The propagate functionality is available for creating change requests.
When you create a change request from a problem report, the Set Attributes step contains a Propagate information checkbox. When you select the checkbox, the following fields are copied from the problem report to the change request:
Name
Description
Affected end items
Affected objects
Attachments
Using the propagation functionality reduces the data entry to create the change request.
* 
The appearance of the propagate check box is controlled by a preference. If you do not see it, an administrator has disabled the preference.
