Upgrade/Downgrade With Issues

Setting key: issue_intent_update

What it does

Issue Intent Update automatically updates the intent of inventory when an issue is resolved against it. The new intent is determined by a mapping configured in your issue dispositions — each disposition type can specify what intent value the affected inventory should receive.

This allows quality events (nonconformances, deviations, dispositions) to directly affect the quality designation of the inventory involved, without requiring a separate manual update.

When it runs

• When an issue is resolved - the intent update is applied to each of the issue's inventory.

The intent change is driven by your disposition-to-intent mapping. If a disposition has no intent configured, no change is made to the inventory's intent.

Configuration options

Field	Possible Values	Description
enabled	true / false	Turns the automatic intent update on or off. Default: false

Note: The specific disposition-to-intent mappings are configured on each disposition type, not within this setting. This setting acts as the global on/off switch.

Example scenario

Your organization has a "Downgrade to Dev" disposition type mapped to Development intent. A Flight-grade connector has a nonconformance raised against it for a cosmetic scratch. The quality team reviews it and determines it is still functional, but not to Flight standard. They disposition the issue as Downgrade to Dev. ION automatically downgrades the connector's intent to Development - it remains available in inventory and can still be used in Development builds, but is blocked from being kitted or installed into Flight assemblies.
