Use SCM
If this check box is selected, the software components developed or modified in LN Studio are managed with the Software Configuration Management (SCM) tool of the connected LN environment.

Use SCM to perform version management for packages linked to the application, or for the individual activities of the application. To use SCM for the version management of the packages, SCM must be enabled for the associated Project VRC on the LN server. If SCM is not enabled, you cannot add a package from this VRC to the application.
