Synchronizing attribute groups and requirement types

You can synchronize Rational® RequisitePro® requirement types with Rational Requirements Composer attribute groups. This synchronization enables you to use the integration to associate requirements and update attribute values in both tools. You can use the synchronization capability to create corresponding attribute groups and requirement types or refresh existing attribute groups and requirement types if changes are made in either tool.
