Linkable domains for requirements

You can create associations between requirements and domain elements depending on the available linkable domains (or simply domains). A linkable domain refers to a feature or application within the workspace that represents closely related domain elements, such as a file or project within the Resource domain.

For example, the UML is one linkable domain. Within the UML linkable domain, there are many kinds of elements, such as use cases, models, classes, components, and so on. Typically, you refer to these domain elements as model elements; however, they are called domain elements because you can create associations between domain elements and requirements.
