RELATED IDEAS

Provide an option that prevents adding any new types to the type system in a ReqIF import.

During a ReqIF import, especially (advanced) mode, it can happen that new types in the type system are created. It should be possible to suppress this to not get the well maintained type system contaminated.

    We understand the business justification to this enhancement request but must understand the functional enhancement and use case better.

    When the supplier makes comments on the requirements, which RM too is the supplier using?
    Does the supplier make a change to the type system or does it remain the same?

    Business Justification: The customer spends a fortune on maintaining a consistent type system and consider it not acceptable to get their type system contaminated by a random ReqIF import. Currently it is impossible to prevent that from happening.

    When data is reimported it will need to be received back from the supplier with the same data types or the import would be difficult. It sounds like the data is received back from the supplier has a different ID to the type exported. Can you confirm this is the case?

    If you receive data back from a supplier with a different type to that exported, what are you suggesting we do to resolve the situation? Selecting an attribute for import will need to create a new type if DOORS Next feels that the type does not exist.
