Chapter 3 Building a requirements model
Design objects are objects defined in design models (CDM, PDM, OOM, BPM, FEM, XSM, ILM). These objects can be an additional source of information about requirements, either in the making of a requirements model, or as a result of a requirement satisfaction.
You can perform several actions concerning design objects in a requirements model:
| Action | Description |
|---|---|
| Attach design objects to requirements | In the Traceability Links page of a requirement property sheet, click the Add Links to Design Objects tool to select design objects in a model open in the workspace, and attach them to the current requirement. Design objects are listed as external shortcuts in the List of Shortcuts.
At the other end of the links, the requirement appears in the Requirements page of the design objects property sheet. See section Linking requirements with design objects, in chapter Working with a requirements model |
| Export requirements as design objects | In the menu bar, select Requirements→Export Requirements as Design Objects, to open the Requirement Export Wizard which allows you to create design objects from requirements.
See chapter Working with a requirements model |
| Import design objects as requirements | In the menu bar, select Requirements→Import Design Objects as Requirements, to open the Requirement Import Wizard which allows you to create requirements from design objects.
