ELM702: Test Plan reconciliation not able to handle testcase removal

At the beginning requirements (in ERM) are set for a specific VnV Method (and VnV Method Sub). Based on this initial setting Test Plan(s) are created in ETM and testcase reconciliation is done. But then afterwards (e.g. due to further requirements and VnV review, the VnV Method setting is modified, i.e. existing value removed from requirements (and other values assigned instead). (this is very normal review/update/refinement procedure in a project). Repeating reconciliation for the existing test plans "only" indicates (lists) which testcases are removed, but there is no mechanism to immediately remove those testcases from the test plan. Instead each of them must be removed manually. This leads to inefficiency , error prone situations and not possible on large scale. So need for iFix in ELM 7.0.2 which can overcome above situation. Thanks.
