When you create a document in RequisitePro, you are creating it in Word. A document is based on an outline, which provides the document structure—fonts, formatting, page layout information, and other features associated with documents. You can use the document outlines provided with RequisitePro to organize your requirements. Outlines are provided for various document types; in the outlines, headings and suggestions are provided for the type of information that belongs under each heading. You can also use the software to create your own document outlines.
When you create a document, RequisitePro adds the new document to the project directory; you must specify the name, type, directory, and other information related to the document.
You write different types of documents at different stages of the project, and you create specific types of requirements in specific types of documents. In the Vision document, you document the features your project should include, and in the use-case document, you describe how the system behaves. The use cases should relate to features in the Vision document.
The document outlines available through RequisitePro appear on the Document Properties dialog box, General tab. (In the Explorer, click the project, and then click File > New > Document.)
