2. Provide user-specific Properties for Projects and Folders like for users.

Similar as ‘set( User Property)’ on Page 246 of the DXL Reference Manual, the functionality shall exist for DOORS Projects and Folders (and (Link-)Modules as-well) to be able to tag this kind of data in DOORS as-well and optimize the handling, man...

History note/entry for imported modules and objects via ReqIF

Till yet history for imported objects is empty. Expectation is an entry in Module history like: 'Created by ReqIF-Import via <RegIf-Definition-Name>. And the same in history in each imported object: 'Created by ReqIF-Import via <ReqIf-Def...

ReqIF option 'No locks. Exported data is read-only.' should instead read something like this: 'No locks. Update not possible'

The current option wording is misleading for customers. A ReqIf-Export without option to update exported date is something that is not the intention of primary function of ReqIF: See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Requirements_Interchange_Format "R...

improve migration log - failed because of a deleted LinkModule but do not state which one

When doing a DOORS Migration(Migiz) of multiple module (with links), we go an error because of an offending deleted link module, but it does not state which one. Would be very useful that the Migiz export utility provided a full path or module id....

Avoid drag & drop bad manipulation

Dear Community As you know probably, it is very (or too much) easy to move a DOORS module/folder/project by mistake inside DOORS. (Just by drag and drop, sometimes made easier by Citrix/network slowdown, etc...) And as no information message app...

ERM DOORS DXL security shall be more granular and allow super DXL users and standard DXL users

Currently the DXL security tab only specifies "Only users with Edit DXL power may edit and run DXL". This shall be more granular and allow different levels of DXL users For example: Level 1 DXL users are allowed to generate/modify attribute DXL/la...

Changing the default view access

Our idea is to change the approach to views to automatically inherit module access rights, which is currently different. Namely, now if it is not inherited, the view exists in the module, but it cannot be manipulated. It would be very useful after...

Reset baseline version in project after archive/restore process
