MultiValue Attribute Property value "Remove unchecked values" should be unchecked by default

In the attribute value dialog selecting multiple attributes and modifying multi value attribute the setting for 'Remove unchecked values' is always set. This leads to unwanted modifications. The default should be unchecked. Furthermore this settin...

Customize the separator character when importing CSV files in DOORS 9.7

It would be beneficial because it would not be necessary to change Windows Settings or do any preprocessing to make a correct import

Document hardware performance benchmarks for DOORS 9 components, similar to what is available for DOORS Next

At the time of writing, DOORS minimum hardware requirements date back some (many) years and are not at all exhaustive as to what performance is recommended for production workloads. Other products in the same group of tools document their performa...

A download checksum for installation media

The ELM suite has a checksum for installation downloads. This provides confidence that the installation media is not missing files or data. Our IT security guidelines recommend the use of checksums on downloadable media. It is likely that this wil...

DOORS: Users shall be able to edit the ReqIF definition "Name" and "Description" fields

When a user creates a ReqIF definition and clicks OK there is now no way to edit the "Name" and "Description" fields. If the user has made a typo their only option is to delete this ReqIF definition and create a new one. DOORS should allow users t...

Implement identical richtext capabilities between DOORS 9 client and DOORS Web Access, for example RTF colors

Currently RTF in DWA is more limited compared to the DOORS 9 client. For example, text colors that show in the client are not displayed on the web. Similar feature scope for Richtext between the two methods of displaying module data, is desirable.

How to prevent users from changing the Default Module View

Currently many users create and save their own views as the Default view of the module. There is no way to lock down the Default view for the module and to prevent users from saving their own views as the Default view for everyone.

Allow the controlled modification of attribute definitions while some module data is locked for shared edit.

In a high availability around-the-clock scenario, it is not feasible to stop shared editing in order to modify attribute definitions and purge objects. Both types of tasks need to take place within the same time frame. Perhaps the concept of setti...

Allow to copy projects, folders and modules while data is locked for editing therein

In a busy database accessed by users across multiple time zones, the limitation of exclusivity between copying projects, folders and modules, and locking data in modules for editing is a serious constraint. Breaking up this exclusivity will greatl...
