What’s New 

An option to add a Global Tenant to the Change Management Urgency Configuration page to allow the creation of Configurations in Global Tenant is newly added. A Global Tenant is a Tenant, which is configured and available to the Local Tenants (referred to as Tenants) as a default configuration. All the Local Tenants under the Global Tenant inherit the configurations made for the Global Tenant. The Global Tenant configurations cannot be modified from the Tenant configuration pages.
