Adding a Rational ClearQuest Project Tracker integration

The Rational ClearQuest Project Tracker integration integrates Microsoft Project and Rational ClearQuest. The integration lets you link your project plans with Rational ClearQuest databases.

The Rational ClearQuest Project Tracker integration requires that you perform the following steps in the specified order:

  1. Add the AMBaseActivity package
  2. Add the AMWorkActivitySchedule package
  3. Validate and apply the schema changes
  4. Configure Rational® ClearQuest® Project Tracker

See Enabling record types for integrations if you already have the AMBaseActivity and AMWorkActivitySchedule packages in your schema and want to apply them to a new record type.

Adding the AMBaseActivity package

  1. Use the Designer to ensure that the schema to which you want to add the package is checked in.
  2. Add the latest AMBaseActivity package. See Applying package upgrades.
Attention: The AMBaseActivity package cannot be applied to a BaseCmActivity record type when configuring Project Tracker. BaseCmActivity is a UCM record type. The AmBaseActivity package can be applied only to Defect and Enhancement Request record types.

Adding the AMWorkActivitySchedule package

With the schema checked out, add the latest AMWorkActivitySchedule package.

Validating and applying the schema changes

Save the schema changes after installing the AMWorkActivitySchedule package:

  1. Validate the schema changes. See Validating schema changes.
  2. Check in the schema to save the changes. See Checking in a schema.
  3. Apply the schema changes to the user database. See Upgrading a user database.
