Manage IBM Rational® Jazz based Work Items with Email
JazzConnect-EMAIL (Reader) is an application that provides a platform that enables the automatic creation and management of work items through the use of email.
Many organisations and applications use email to communicate information to others.
IBM Rational Jazz products have built in support for sending emails when events occur, such as Work item creation, modification etc.
Yet they do not support the ability for email to act as an input.
The ability to use an additional client interface to Jazz provides valuable and enhanced work item management from external customers.
