How to register?

The plugin will not activate without the license. Therefore, you should download the license from our website and next paste it to the main directory of the plugin (e.g. „Mantis/plugins/Manea”) and name it “license.dat”. Next, you should enter the data of the owner of the license in the “Configuration” tab of our plugin.

How to synchronize?

In order to start the synchronization you should first register the plugin and then set the data related to the connection to the Enterprise Architect (EA) database and Matis project to which data imported from EA will be added. After properly configuring the connection, the synchronization option will appear on the home page. After clicking “Synchronize”, projects from EA with «Mantis» type of requirement will be automatically added to the selected project of Mantis and bugs reported in Mantis tagged «EA-Mantis» will be added to the “Mantis” package in EA. If the same entry already exists both in Mantis and EA and it has changed, the edit entry form will be displayed. All fields which differ will be editable. Choose the data which should be saved with the use of radiobuttons. After finishing the synchronization, the summary will be displayed. You can see this feature on movies.
