The life cycle graph shows the path through which a container, task, or component is traveling. The life cycle graph may contain descriptions of each component within the graph, depending on user selections made in the view from which is launched. The description may include any of the following:

• Active: Number of tasks that are active in the ISPW life cycle datasets

• Inactive: Number of tasks that are not active in the ISPW life cycle datasets

• B: The "based upon" version number

• V: ISPW's internal version number (0 until promoted to first controlled level)

Important

If there is only one active component at a level, the base and internal version is included (B: V:).
