IBM Engineering - Requirements Management DOORS/DOORS Web Access

Showing 196

Allow archiving of projects and modules while users have edit locks on data

Currently both tasks - archiving and editing, require exclusive access to all modules in a project (project archives), all data in a module (module archiving) (exclusive edit) or some data in a module (shared edit). This excludes the ability to cr...

In DWA GUI add a notification mechanism (similar to ELM) when content displayed has changed in the background and offer to refresh.

DOORS Web Access lacks the triggered viewport refresh of the DOORS 9 Windows client. It has however all the necessary hooks available to it to display a "data has changed in the background" notification, and to provide the user with a choice to re...

Set default for "New Collaboration Link" always to "select artifact"

Currently if user starts link DOORS object to ALM (CCM, RQM), the first window "New Collaboration Link" always let "select artifact" and "create artifact" unselected. Which means for BOTH options any user will complain it is not necessary. Because...

Request to be able to delete baseline references when baselines have been deleted

We have modules with more than 700 baselines, but a lot have been deleted. When we view the list of baselines in "Manage Baselines" it is slow to scroll through as all the baseline references remain, even though some have been deleted. We request ...

DOORS direct connection to company LDAP

DOORS is not able to connect directly to a company LDAP, like DOORS Next. DOORS is able to do it via RDS, that is more or less a simpler LDAP. So the ideas is to make DOORS available to connect to company LDAP. RDS brings a lot of software to be i...

Add an audit trail / history for user and group management operations

Audits frequently review what admin added/modified/deleted which user/group when and why. This is currently not recorded in an integrated audit or history feature. It is obvious why this would be useful. Tracking these operations in the logs fails...

Give migration package powers to a new management level role on project level (project manager)

Currently only DB Managers / admins can manage migration packages (for DNG). In large scale deployments, a hand ful of admins is typically faced with dozens if not hundreds of projects and their management tasks, particularly the migration to DNG ...
about 1 year ago in IBM Engineering - Requirements Management DOORS/DOORS Web Access / Upgrade 0 Future consideration

Introduce a 'project manager' role that can take over admin tasks from DB managers, but limited to a project's scope.

In a typical large scale DOORS DB, thousands of users, hundreds of concurrent users, work on dozens or hundreds of projects, while the entire database often has less than a handful of 'database managers'. There is currently no management layer bet...

Allow removal of locks for specific users in the DOORS Databaseserver Administration Tool (DBSAT)

The current lock management feature is rudimentary: one list of all locks, a remove lock button to acts on one line/item at a time. Managing dozens or hundreds of concurrent users, it is important to be able to remove all locks for a specific user...

Allow resizing of the DOORS Database Server Administration Tool (DBSAT) window and columns.

The user experience is limited with the current implementation of the fixed size window and columns, particularly on very high resolution screens and when working with huge numbers of users / many lines of data.
