DNG artifacts removal without warning about existing links to RTC causing back link warning in RTC

Scenario: A DNG artifact within a module was linked to a RTC work item. The DNG artifact was removed from the module before the link to RTC was removed. Then an user tried to remove the link from the RTC work item but the tool was not able to find...

Create a tag in base artifact while in module

When assigning a tag in DOORS NEXT, it would be great if there was a radio box so you can choose to create the tag in the base artifact, and/or the module. Module tags cannot be searched across modules, so most of the time people will prefer to us...

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...

Need a function to identify unused types and attributes to allow for quick cleanup and confirmance with templates

Currently the only way to remove un-used types is to manually go into every project, check if it is used (or try and delete it which does the check), if it is unused select delete. refresh the interface, and repeat. It takes approx 20 seconds per ...

Create projects templates for CM enabled Projects which includes all components

At present you can only create a template at a component level however this will not preserve links between components which is a major limitation. We need the ability to create a CM Project template and select components (or just include all acti...

The option to "Change Artifact Type" does not honor Link Restrictions of the new artifact type so there should be a warning to manually update Links after changing the artifact type.

End User Perspective: "DNG should prevent us from changing an artifact to a new type if it has links that violate link restrictions in the new type. I was able to change (a certain) artifact that was driving Req artifacts to (another artifact type...

Editing the "Name" property from the UI is strange...

User feedback that when editing the "Name" property of a requirement in the UI for a module, the text initially is greyed out when editing is activated, forcing the user to click a space or backspace to make the attribute editable and then proceed...

User without permissions to modify component attributes needed another option in an enumerated list. A user with appropriate permissions added the enumeration to the list. But the user was unable to see the change in the context of a change set th...
