Configure an item type for Jama Connect Advisor

The organization admin must configure item types to work with the add-on in analyzing your requirements statements.

Select the item types that your team finds most useful when writing requirements statements. You can select only item types that include rich text.

Setting up Jama Connect Advisor requires two tasks:

  1. Configure the item types you want to use with Jama Connect Advisor

  2. Enable Jama Connect Advisor
