When a document is related to other CollabNet TeamForge items such as
tasks, tracker artifacts or file releases, you can connect the document
to the other item by creating an association.
Creating associations between items enables you to define
relationships, track dependencies, and enforce workflow rules. Some example
uses for document associations include:
- Associating a requirements document with supporting feature
requests or bugs in the tracker.
- Associating a document, or a document review, with the task that requires it as a
deliverable.
- Associating a master document, such as a product plan, with other
supporting documents such as a test plan or beta plan.
- Associating a product announcement document with a file release.
- In the Site Explorer window, right-click a TeamForge document and select Edit Document Data.
- In the Associate With section of the Update Document window, enter the ID of the item you want to associate with the document. For example, "artf1001"..
- Add a comment describing the reason for your association.
- Click OK.
