Evaluate TFS Policies (Rules) when Committing DB Changes

We need SQL Source Control to comply with the policies in force for the project. eg. Checkin policies, associate with workitem policy.

        I agree, great product (we are using the developer bundle) but evaluation of policies is definitely missing + selecting from list of assigned workitems prior to the checkin. (the comments textbox alone is not good enough)

        I'm slightly disappointed that the source control software can't do this. Everything else works so well. Our department would really love to have this feature just to make sure people don't forget.

        We are currently evaluating Red-Gate again due to the terrible performance and overhead with managing multiple large databases in Visual Studio Database Projects. We have these same rules that would need to be enforced before we could move our 20 developers over to this product I believe. Our Audit department would not be happy about this not occurring.

        I understand there is a way to associate a workitem with a check-in and this is great but I need my TFS rules to be enforced by a SSC check-in. Currently if I do not associate a check-in with a workitem it will check-in anyways even though I have a rule that states all check-ins must be associated with a workitem.
