Setting up integration attributes to export projects
After a project with the required business needs is finalized in Focal Point, you can export the project to the Change and Configuration Management application of Rational solution for Collaborative Lifecycle Management for project execution. When you export a project to Change and Configuration Management application, a project area is created, and work items are created for each business need. You can synchronize with the Change and Configuration Management application at regular intervals to view the project status.
Before you begin
Set up the integration with the Jazz server.
