We could have the Third level label be 'Subscriptions List'. > > 2. Currently we have Content Providers with sub nav of Red Hat and > Custom; is Subscriptions meant to incorporate both? No, In 1.0 you will find a list of subscriptions under Organizations and under Red Hat Provider. Breaking Subscriptions out is meant to eliminate the ambiguity and redundancy. Under Repositories you now have 'Custom Repos' and 'Red Hat Repos' which is the same content as providers with the exception of 'Red Hat Repos' which should no longer have a list of subs or an import history tab. These now have the label of repos because that is what they contain. We are sill mirroring content we are just doing it in multiple places and are more specific with nav labels. Users now have one place to see all Subs available in that environment which is under 'Subscriptions' in a nice new tu-payne.

For the current 'Custom Provider' everything is done exactly the same just the label changed and its position in the nav. For 'Red Hat Provider' we have now eliminated the subscriptions from this page and condensed it into one list under subscriptions. The process is still the same here is well except you now import from the subscription page. This is why the nav is reorganized this why to imply the workflow you outlined. 1- Import Subs 2- Enable Repos(Could add gpgs here or filter packages) 3- Sync down content 4- Content Search (Browser) - Find Content, Add to Sys template/Changeset 5- Manage Sys template/Add to change set 6- Manage Changeset/Promote to next environment
