Feature to deliver a change set again which was already delivered in the past

Sometimes errors and mistakes happen and data is lost in the delivery process of change sets - for example if conflicts come up in the delivery process of change sets from Stream A to Stream B or wrong settings are make by mistake. Then we can't r...

Synchronization of Attributes across different Streams

We currently have the problem that there is no feature in DNG to transfer the contents of an attribute in a module of Stream A to the same Module (with the same IDs) in Stream B. For example if someone deletes the content of one attribute in one M...

Artifact's Default User interface is mostly taken over by "Primary Text"

Default Artifact User interface is mostly taken over by "Primary Text" If you are not using "Primary Text" to represent your main body of content, this is a major loss of productivity! Alternative proposals: Allow user to configure, which field sh...

Functionality or means to “rebase” a change set

Apply the Module Content folder setting in project properties to ReqIF imports

This setting applies to modules created in DOORS Next, but misses out on the scenario of ReqIF imported modules, which are placed by default in the project root. It is not clear to customers that this setting does not apply to ReqIF imports and so...

Property to set tag's & view's description field size

We faced limitation of 449 symbols for tag's description field - in some cases it was not enough for us (eg. when we use tag's descriptions to store some technical information by extensions we develop). We'd like to have property (eg. in RM advanc...

Flexible presentation options for editing custom string attributes in context of module views
