Chapter 3 Building a requirements model
To increase the scope of a requirement, you can create links with design objects (objects from other types of models), external files (MS Word, MS Excel, PowerDesigner...) and other requirements that bring additional information about the requirement.
The Traceability Links page of a requirement property sheet allows you to attach design objects, external files and other requirements to the current requirement:
| Tool | Tooltip | Description |
|---|---|---|
|
Add Links to Design Objects | Creates shortcuts to attach design objects to the current requirement. Design objects are selected from design models open in the workspace |
|
Add Link to External File | Creates a link between an external file (whatever the format) and the current requirement. The external file is stored in a Files folder within the model.
See Defining a bookmark in an MS Word document |
|
Add Links to Other Requirements | Creates a link between the current requirement and other requirements from the same model, but from different hierarchies (different root requirements) and not yet selected |
