Publish business needs as high-level work items into Rational Team Concert
The business needs in Focal Point can be published as work items into Rational Team Concert. You can either publish business needs one-by-one or publish them in bulk into Rational Team Concert.
Procedure
1 To link Focal Point business needs with artifacts in Rational Team Concert, create an Integration link attribute and configure it with allowed service providers and project areas to create links to: see Adding and configuring attributes for storing links to artifacts in the Rational solution for Collaborative Lifecycle Management applications.
2 To publish business needs as work items into Rational Team Concert, you can either link to an existing work item or create a new one. You can either publish the business need one by one or publish them in bulk.
Publish business needs one-by one:
Link the business need of Focal Point with the existing work items in Rational Team Concert or create new work items in Rational Team Concert one-by-one.
Publish business needs in bulk:
To create or update many artifacts with a single click instead of repeating the same operation for every element, you can add a view command. A workspace administrator can set up view commands to handle bulk operations for artifacts linked from Focal Point.
Set up OSLC View Commands in a view that contains linked elements, for example a project view or release view: see Adding view commands for bulk operations on artifacts in Rational solution for Collaborative Lifecycle Management applications. Ensure that you add the views for the commands Create artifacts and associate the links to the CLM server.
Publish business needs as work items into the Rational Team Concert project area in bulk.
Note that only the Title and Description (Optional) fields of business needs are created in the work item artifacts in Rational Team Concert.
