Viewing and setting the status of migration packages

The migration package status indicates whether a package is exported and if all modules in the package are successfully imported into Rational® DOORS® Next Generation. You can view and set the status of individual modules in a migration package as you progress through the migration process.

Before you begin

To view and set the status of a migration package, you must upgrade the IBM® Rational DOORS client where you do this task to version 9.6.1.3 or later.

About this task

The statuses of all migration packages in a project are displayed in the Manage Migration Packages window.

Table 1. Migration package statuses
Status Description
Not exported The package is not exported.
Exported The package is exported. There is no indication whether modules are imported and accepted in the remote application.
Partially Accepted The package is exported. The package is imported into the remote application and some modules are marked as "Accepted" in the Edit Migration Package window.
Accepted The package is exported and successfully imported into the remote application. All modules are marked as "Accepted" in the Edit Migration Package window.

The status of each module in the package is displayed in the Edit Migration Package window. After the package is successfully imported into Rational DOORS Next Generation, you can set the status of each module to "Accepted".

Table 2. Module statuses in a migration package
Status Description
Not exported The package that contains the module is not exported.
Exported The package that contains the module is exported. There is no indication whether the package and its modules are imported and accepted in the remote application.
Accepted The package that contains the module is exported from and successfully imported into the remote application. The module status is set to "Accepted".
