In modules, you can manage elements that have a common
set of attributes. To begin managing elements, you can use either
a predefined module or create a module that is based on your requirement.
In this lesson, you create a module for managing car elements.
Prerequisite: You must be a workspace administrator to create
a module.
A
module is a collection of elements that describes a set of entities
that have attributes in common. Modules have different functions,
but all modules contain a structured set of elements. Some modules
support the work of the administrator and are included in the product;
for example, Criteria, Releases, Checkpoints, Saved Charts, and Saved
Reports. You cannot delete these modules. You can create other modules
according to specific business requirements and use them to configure
business-specific information, such as projects and requirements.
- Open a workspace for which you have the administrator access.
- On the navigation bar, click . A
list of all the modules that are available by default is displayed.
- Click Add Module.
- On the Modules page, for the name
of the module, type Cars.
- In the Add button name field, type Car. The label of the Add button in this module
will be Add Car.
- In the Description field, type This
is my cars module.
- In the remaining fields, use the default values and click OK.
- When you are prompted to define attributes for the Cars
module that you added, click OK.
In the next lesson, you define the attributes for the elements
that can be added to this module.
