Rational ProjectConsole Designer Help
A source template identifies the data you want to collect. ProjectConsole can extract data directly from Rational products, text files, and from third-party tools such as Microsoft Project and Microsoft Word.
After you specify the data source type from which to collect data, ProjectConsole can retrieve information from the source to help identify the source schema. Most Rational sources use a common RSE interface so that ProjectConsole can browse their data structures.
Host name/data source information
To create a source template, or to modify an existing source template, you must specify the source host name, and parameter values such as the fully-qualified source file name (for Rational Rose templates, for example), or a username and password (for Rational ClearQuest templates, for example).
For more information about source templates, see Creating a domain source template and Creating a text source template.
