Selecting default requirements change requests

All changes made to a document, except for unmanaged attributes, go through a formal review and approval process. When using requirements change management, first associate all changes to the requirements with an RCR. Then, you track a set of changes made throughout this process.

About this task

When you select a default RCR, you are choosing to automatically associate any proposed changes to objects in the current Rational® DOORS® module with that CR.

Procedure

  1. In Rational DOORS, open the applicable module.
  2. On the main menu, select Change Management > Requirements Change Request > Select Default.

    The Select Default RCR - DOORS window opens, and the default RCR that is already selected is highlighted.

  3. In the ID & Summary field, click to select the RCR.

    In the default lifecycle, only RCRs assigned to you are included in the list. If there are no RCRs listed, then, in your change management software, assign one to yourself.

  4. Click OK.

    The default requirements change management request displays in the lower right corner of the Rational DOORS module window.
