The SLIM to RTC integration can be configured to retrieve information about defects and other metrics from a RTC repository and insert that information into the actual data of a SLIM-Control workbook.  For more information and access, see the Integrations section of the Downloads page.

With a little programming effort, you can configure the SLIM-Suite APIs (Application Programmer's Interfaces) to create time-saving interfaces between SLIM-Suite tools and other time, effort, or defect reporting systems, databases, spreadsheets, and programs. Check out the API section of the QSM Downloads page, where you'll find documentation and working examples of the SLIM-Control, SLIM-Estimate, and SLIM-DataManager APIs!
