Audience: everyone

Environmental details: Jama Connect® all versions

Summary:

In Jama Connect®, there exists a "Locked by" field, which could indicate that the item is in the "Locked" state or status.

Solution:

Definitions of the fields:

The "Locked By" field contains the user's name who last locked the item.
The "Last Locked by" field contains the date a user last locked the item.
The "Locked" field includes the locked status, i.e., whether or not the item is locked.

Cause:

At some point, the "Locked by" field must have been marked as "show" in the "show/hide fields" selector:


Prevention:

If the "Last Locked" field is not relevant to your operations, it may be hidden to avoid confusion. Instead, it should only show the "Locked" status field, which is a Boolean value represented by a lock icon when locked.
