The options exist to get things 'straight'...straight as in, where they should be. Here is a definition of the 3 different states currently available Base - Object Created by BMC and has not been modified Overlaid - Object Created by BMC, but has been modified in the Best Practice Mode to have different attributes Custom - Object created by Customer, not part of BMC's original design Now, why would you need capabilities to convert between base and custom? Well...lets go through a scenario 7.5 Remedy Server upgraded to 8.1 Remedy server. In this scenario, the 7.5 Remedy server didn't have capability of putting user customizations into a different 'layer', but the 7.6.04+ versions do...so a responsible admin goes through the system and moves all objects that are not BMC native to 'Custom' objects after creating proper overlays. So, that's a reason why one would convert from Base to Custom....but WHY would anyone need to convert a Custom object to Base?....because we are human, and sometimes make mistakes. If someone were to incorrectly convert a base object to custom, that in fact should have been base, you have the ability to switch it back. Sagar, Lisa, others, I hope that answers the question of why the conversion option exists.
