You can associate a record with an Rational® ClearQuest® requirement. Use this option when the Rational RequisitePro® project is not available, for example, if the Rational RequisitePro client for Windows® is not installed or if you are working in MultiSite in a replica that does not have access to Rational RequisitePro.
This option is also useful if your team approves requirements in Rational RequisitePro, creates requirements in Rational ClearQuest from those Rational RequisitePro requirements, and associates records, such as test cases, with the approved requirements.
