Doors Next Needs Server Side Operational Behaviors

In order to add automation to Requirements Management we need to be able to perform actions when an artifact is saved. This would be similar to the use of preconditions and follow-up actions provided in EWM. Examples of things we would like to do:...

Restrict visibility of folders and components to specific users

Currently if we want to restrict visibility, we have to create separate projects to contain the artefacts. This results in additional management overhead for each project, and it would be preferable to simplify this by being able to restrict read ...

Enabling filtering based on values of attributes of any linked object

This enables users to filter for different values of attributes within those link columns. This is possible right now for links within DOORs Next and this is the funcionality we want to use for links to other domains.

View of linked files in SCM to requirements in DNX not possible

It is possible to link artifacts from RTC SCM to requirements in DOORSNG. It is possible to see the linking of the artifacts to the requirements in the Eclipse client by right click on the artifact. (this method is not applicable, if you want to c...

Change Set Compare function should use the GC Configuration when looking at outward links to populate what it is linked to rather than say that it is not in the current configuration.

When using DOORS in configuration manage mode and you link between components it is not possible to see in a changeset where your outgoing links go to because the deliver and compare functions DON'T use the GC to enable to see what is at the other...

Allow to generate only specific topics in the compare configuration report

The compare configuration report quickly becomes a very large report which can easily crash the DOORS Next server if sufficient heap is not allocated. But even if enough heap is allocated, the EDG component only has 8GB fixed heap and many reports...

Provide option to split configuration comparison report output into multiple files with different section headings

This would be useful because the output of the report can be very large. For us, even a small report is unwieldy at more than 500MB. Having multiple files means that the report is much easier to open and share, rather than being one monolithic fil...
