Support Direct Entra ID token for IBM ELM APIs

Current Architecture & Limitations IBM ELM REST APIs currently require all client requests to present a token issued directly by the Jazz Authentication Server (JAS). While JAS integrates with Microsoft Entra ID via OpenID Connect (OIDC) for i...

Global Configuration application: User Interface usability

Context: Many ELM deployments include global configuration usage. Usual programmes contain a very large number of RM and QM components and streams and possibly even more of GC components and streams. However, the GC application (1) when focusing o...

Order of local configurations is lost if moving local configurations from one global configuration to another via drag&drop

Current behavior: when adding local configurations via drag&drop from one Global Configuration to another the order of the added local configurations changes Expectation:  the order of the local configurations remains the same in the new ...

Simplify and Improve Global Configuration Context Switching

Context: Users frequently switch Global Configuration (GC) contexts while navigating across RM, ETM, and other ELM applications. In large environments with many configurations, finding the correct GC can be difficult and time-consuming. Probl...

Global Configuration: configuration selection user interfaces

Context: Many ELM deployments include global configuration usage. Usual programmes contain a very large number of RM and QM components and streams and possibly even more of GC components and streams. Problem: From within the engineering applicatio...

ReqIF Export and Import Across Multiple DOORS Next Components in a Global Configuration linked to ENGR-MDN-590 idea

Context: In many DOORS Next deployments, the decomposition model follows a one module = one component approach to enable baselining at module level. As a result, a single document or specification may be distributed across multiple components and ...

Consistent Global Configuration Administration Across Jazz Applications

Context: Administrators work across RM, ETM, EWM, and Global Configuration. However, GC administration is not always consistent with the rest of the Jazz applications, creating confusion and additional learning effort. Problem: Administrative task...

Global Configuration application: User Interface consistency with other ELM application

Context: ELM users often have to switch from one ELM application to another. It is even more significant for administrators. Users usually expects to have a similar user experience regardless of the application they are in. Problem: GC user interf...

Global Configuration Traceability Comparison

Context : Teams use Global Configuration Management to compare streams, baselines, and configurations. Today, comparisons focus mainly on configuration structure and component changes. Problem : Changes in traceability links between configurations...
