Integrating requirements data with other data types

You can integrate data in change management and quality management projects with requirements data in Rational® DOORS® and Rational DOORS Web Access. Once configured, you can link together the data, so that you have traceability from your requirements to the change and quality data for them. You see data from the projects that are integrated when you view the link. The data that you see is live; you do not need to perform any data synchronization.

You can create links to existing artifacts in projects that you integrate with, or you can create and link to new artifacts. You can create links using Rational DOORS and Rational DOORS Web Access. When you create a link to a change management or quality management artifact, a link is created back from the artifact to the requirement.

Users of the change management or quality management databases that you integrate with can see and link to requirements data in your Rational DOORS database. The users can also create objects in modules and link to those objects.

Attention: Even if you plan to only use the Rational DOORS client for the integrations, you must still install and configure the Rational DOORS Web Access components, as described in the following topics.
