Fix SCCM ConfigMgr Tip Not Able to Create Requirement for Deployment Type

Here is the scenario. When “Application Administrator” (Default Security Role comes with CM 2012) tries to “create requirement” for a new app model –> deployment type, then he cannot find any of the default condition drop-down lists.

So, give a background: these conditions you see in the create requirement window are nothing but “Global Conditions”. SCCM ConfigMgr Tip cannot create the requirement for the deployment type.

For example, “Total Physical Memory” is one of the default conditions or global conditions. Fix SCCM ConfigMgr Tip Not Able to Create Requirement for Deployment Type?

Why can’t the Application Administrator create or add requirements for the deployment type? Global Conditions are securable objects, and we can assign security scopes to each global condition.
