I use DOORS DOORS 8.3.0.1 and I have read the online help extensively, but I still do not understand why promote and demote are sometimes available and sometimes not! It is frustrating that two headings that look almost identical can have different promote/demote options. Do you know what makes the promote and demote buttons clickable?

Thanks for any help.

Mary,

here are some rules that I have observed:

- the first object in a module can neither be promoted nor demoted
- same for the first object on a lower level, if it's not the only object
- objects not first or last on a level can only be demoted
- last object on a level can be promoted or demoted
- single objects on a lower level can only be promoted
- objects on first level if not first in module can be demoted

First object in module ................ -> -/-
- first object level 2 .................. -> -/-
- second object level 2 ............. -> -/d
- last object level 2 .................. -> p/d
--- first and only object level 3 ... -> p/-
another first level object ........... -> -/d

and so on.

Karl
