You can create collaboration links from Rational® DOORS® Web
Access objects to artifacts in change management, quality management,
requirements management, and design management applications in the Rational solution for CLM and
other lifecycle applications.
Before you begin
The integration to these applications must be configured using
OSLC data sharing, as described in
Integrating requirements data with other
data types using OSLC.
To create collaboration links, you
must have create access to the object. You must also have an edit
package. Your current package is displayed in the header of the web
client workspace.

link is created to the artifact, and a link is created back from the
artifact to the requirement.
