"Have" you mean. Yes, of course they have, but your query did not specify
what you meant by "a software environment" nor what sense of the term "round
trip" you were referring to. As far as I know, "a software environment"
could be almost anything.
It is clear from the examples you submitted subsequently that you are
dealing with a bit of database jargon rather than the generally understood
sense of the term. You're not writing about human travel, so you can
disregard any usage guidelines that refer to the original meaning of the
term. They aren't meant to apply to specialised jargon.
