Chapter 4 Working with a requirements model

Exporting requirements as design objects

As requirements must be satisfied during a design process, you might want to visualize or integrate them into design models.

The Requirement Export Wizard allows you to export requirements as design objects in design models (CDM, PDM, OOM, BPM, FEM, XSM, ILM). The resulting design objects bear the same name and code as their corresponding requirement. A traceability link is created between each design object and its corresponding requirement.

WARNING!

Caution
The design models to which you want to export requirements must be open in the workspace.

To export requirements as design objects:

In the menu bar, select Requirements→Export Requirements as Design Objects.

The Requirement Export Wizard appears.

Select the design model to which you want to export requirements, and click Next.

Select the type of design objects to which you want to export requirements, and click Next.

Select the requirements you want to export, and click Finish.

The requirements appear in the design model as design objects.
