DOORS Server badly needs a rollback / undo feature for failed transactions beyond the backup/current/new data file concept currently in use

The connection between DOORS Client and DOORS Server is prone to outages by the nature of its design. DOORS Clients contain most of the application logic, DOORS server has the storage abilities. The transfer of new / edited / processed data betwee...

Add means to update / modify baseline access controls in limited scenarios.

Static / frozen Access Control Lists block baselines from being accessed on different - or same but evolved, databases, where users and groups differ / have changed. This is especially an issue when a module with baselines is restored from an arch...

To address multi site user bases working on DOORS data, add a feature that allows for multisite database provision, data replication and caching.

Multi Site user bases can sometimes be brought closer to their DOORS server by using Terminal Server or Citrix. In some cases connections may be even unsuitable for those approaches (latency, HOPS). Since it is increasingly not the case, that peop...

Add a facility to restart the DOORS database server Windows service from within the admin tools (dbadmin / dbsadmin).

Currently only a 'killserver' command is available. Restarting the windows service for doorsd.exe / the DOORS DB server still requires (manual) access to Windows Server admin tools. Such access is increasingly blocked / restricted and typically no...

Add the ability to run multiple DXL Service scripts in parallel for functionality that mimics 'server side DXL'.

Unlike most client/server applications, DOORS 9 has most of the logic on the client side, and little to no automation / scripting / maintenance features on the server side. DOORS DXL Services use DOORS Web Access to offer an interface to DOORS via...

Modernise the built-in (object) Richtext Editor by moving away from the Windows OS component RichEdit Control

The RichEdit control shipped with Windows is increasingly falling out of date and style, and already differs significantly from the one used/shipped with Microsoft Office (WMF vs EMF data format). Lack of updates and patching on the OS end especia...

The DWA TRS feed should expose baseline data that is linked to a global configuration

If DWA TRS feed exposes baseline data that is linked to a global configuration, then it will be possible to get full traceability with ELM applications and DOORS 9 through LQE and JRS. At the moment, Traceability can not be done, for example, betw...

support following external links to databases in Chromium browsers (Chrome / Edge)

When following an external link to another database using special protocols (e. g.: cdb:// ), the browser should handle the protocol and open the respective tool. This feature works in Internet Explorer and Firefox. Using Chrome or Edge, an empty ...

Multiple, independing Object Selection and Editing

Currently, only one or a coherent set of Object(s) can be selected and edited at the same time. For user-experience and optimizing the effort of editing Objects, a Multi-selection-and-Editing feature shall provide the users the ability to select m...
