Special Package Activity and Code Change Operations

For packages that are associated with requirements or user stories, the package activity is stored in the CA Vision server in the respective objects.

Rename Package

Renaming a package is reflected in the CA Vision object. A renamed activity record is written to the CA Harvest SCM Package segment of the User Story or Requirement and all subsequent activities reference the new package name. If code changes are also stored in the User Stories, then SCM updates all the code change records for the associated Package to specify the new package name.

Switch Package

If code changes are stored in user stories and a Switch Package operation is applied to a package associated with a user story, the user story is updated to reflect the moved items. If both the source and target packages are associated with user stories, then both code change segments of the user stories are updated.

Approve Package

Approve package updates the package history in the CA Vision server. The concept of a frozen package created by approving a package does not apply to CA Vision object associations. SCM does not prevent a CA Vision object from being associated or disassociated from a package even when it has been approved.
