With a Work Request search, additional commands (Design Assistant, Delete, Cancel, and Actions) are included on the shortcut menu. The Design Assistant command opens any design attached to the selected work request. The Actions command displays a submenu for applying a different life-cycle state to the selected work request. With a Design or Template search, the shortcut menu also provides access to the Design Assistant. Some commands may be unavailable because of the work request's current state or the capabilities that have been assigned to your user group.
