      Hi Pratik, you can try with a function from the Set Default Value property of the Adapt model. I don't know if it works but I would try that solution.

      Check the attachment! Let me know if works for your scenario. Good Luck!

      Regards,

      Diamila

      Function%20month%20endHello Teja,

      Function month end

      Thanks for your reply.

      I also tried with this feature but, unfortunately I didn't find any function like "Month end".

      Regards,

      Pratik

      Hi Manish Bansal, I hope my response is not too late! You can use the 2 options.

      1. If the project is not closed, you must make the manual change in the Tenant PRD.
      2. If the project is closed, the change must first be made on the PRD tenant and then an update can be made on the other tenant PRD.

      The scoping configuration is not possible to update by the Transport Management.

      Best regard!
