Add 'References' link type to the 'Link by Attribute'

The system-defined link type 'References / Referenced By' is not supported in the 'Link by Attribute' command. To have this link type supported will allow the user to do bulk creation / removal of such links in modules. This will be particularly u...

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 ...
