For its later use, the script file that contains the SCM commands must be completed:
  • User code in Rational Team Concert
  • Name of the stream where are uploaded the projects
  • Address of the Rational Team Concert server
  • Path of the folder containing the lscm command

The .xml technical file created at the end of the import is required if you want to import later updates from the journal. This file gathers information not included in the new model of RPPz, and the list of the entities previously imported.

At the end of the import, if errors have been reported, a dialog box allows you to open the report file in an editor.
