Define required attributes for specified type + workflow state for an artifact type

Analogous to IBM EWM (Precondition: Required value for type and state) it would be very useful if there is a possibility to create rules to ensure that if the artifact reaches a specific state in a workflow, a value for an attribute is set by the ...

Module View: Provide depth and order for each artifact as system attribute that can also be exportable

Provide access to two system attributes in DOORS Next modules that show the artifact’s Depth (same as Object Level in DOORS) and the artifact’s Order (same as Object Number in DOORS). These attributes should be able to be inserted into a module vi...

Change "modified date" field when the artifact is delivered, or add a new "delivered date" field

Hello, The main purpose of this idea is to make the oslc query "oslc.where=dcterms:modified>=<<your_date>>^^xsd:datetime" more useful. I think the main usage of this query is to find the artifacts that were modified recently, or the...

Inserting images and arrays in richtext atributes in DOORS Next

With DOORS Next today, we can add images in the main attribute (content) of requirement artifacts because it is of richtext type. But there is no richtext type available (like in DOORS classic). Projects need to enrich their specification modules ...

Filtering shall support combining conditions with 'OR'

The filter conditions in DOORS in currently combining the conditions always with the logical 'AND'.To provide sufficient filter functionality, it must be also possible to combine filter conditions with the logical 'OR'

ReqIf import: No hidden, non-alterable mapping tables which can mess up a project area

Overview, use case: We want to exchange requirements with a customer who uses DOORS Next, too. We have already set up a project area with the same requirements i.e. same artifacts and same attributes as our customer. Our customer modifies some of ...

Display attribute value in a specific color depending on condition in DOORS Next

Project need to display attribute value in a specific color depending on conditions (a value of another attribute). Example 1: consider the attribute 'Impact level': can be High, Medium, Low. I want to display text: "High" in red color, "Medium" i...

Exporting linked artifacts attributes

There is an option in DNG that allows user to format linked artifacts to display up to 5 attributes associated with them. It would be great if the attributes for the linked artifacts can be exported as well. This will help in showing requirements ...

Set a backgroud color of attributes depending on their value in DOORS Next requirements module.

Projects need DOORS Next to automatically set a backgroud color of attributes in their requirements module depending on conditions (attribute value). Background colors can be configured manually for each attribute.

Our Use Case is to link from a Software Requirement written in Doors next to a Rhapsody Element (outgoing link: traces).

According A-Spice the linking should be as following:System Requirement <-- System Design <-- Software Requirement. Our Requirements are written down as artifacts in Doors Next. Our Design is modeled in Rhapsody. So there is a need to link a...
