Integrating Rational DOORS and Rational Publishing Engine

You can configure the integration with IBM® Rational® Publishing Engine to generate report documents from within IBM Rational DOORS®.
Important: Before you install Rational Publishing Engine, install Rational DOORS. If you install Rational Publishing Engine first, you must modify the Rational DOORS registry entry after you install.

In Rational Publishing Engine, you can select modules and module views as the basis for your reports. You can also use the Rational DOORS schema discovery wizard to generate a new schema. Data source schemas simplify the authoring of document templates for modules that have the same structure and similar attribute lists. You build a report template by using specific columns, attributes, queries, and variables from Rational DOORS. You can prevent Rational Publishing Engine from retrieving more information than necessary by filtering data to a specific subset. After you create the report template and populate it with Rational DOORS data points, you can generate a report in various formats.
