When SCMLoop is installed and enabled (see Installing SCM Loop), commits in the SCM commit action require a tracker item (task, bug etc.) ID entered either from an IDE or from the SCM command line interface, together with the commit command.

Codebeamer records the file name, file version, user name, and date/time in the Codebeamer database and associates it with the tracker item having the specified ID. There is also a mechanism for browsing the SCM repository using Codebeamer's SCM Web interface and see the tasks associated to each file.
