Enable Linking across Cross Server Projects/Components with Link Constraints to improve Traceability whilst increasing Linking Accuracy

Scenario :

GC : [Component A_C1 Initial Stream , Component Z_C1 Initial Stream]


Server 1, Project A, Component A_C1

Artifact Type : SubSystem Requirement Specification, SubSystem Requirement

Link Constraints [SubSystem Requirement Satisfies System Requirement]


Server 2, Project Z, Component Z_C1

Artifact Type : System Requirement Specification, System Requirement

Link Constraints [System Requirement Satisfied By SubSystem Requirement]


Create links from Subsystem Requirements on [Server 1, Project A, Component A_C1] to System Requirement on [Server 2, Project Z, Component Z_C1 ] ,while ensuring users can create links only as per defined constraints to ensure user error is minimized and traceability is improved.
