Creating RRs

Original problems or requirements described from the perspective of customers can be managed as RRs. By creating an RR, you can set the background, value, details, and priority of the requirement.

Prerequisites

An IPD-standalone software project is available, in which you have permission to create and duplicate RRs.

Creating RRs

  1. Access the CodeArts Req homepage.
  2. On the project homepage, click Raw Requirements.
  3. Click RR. On the RR page, set related parameters.

    Description

    Enter the background, value, and details of the RR based on actual conditions.

    Use text, images, or links.

    Attachment

    The maximum number of attachments for a single RR is 100, and their total size cannot exceed 500 MB.

    Proposed Project

    By default, it is the project to which the RR belongs and cannot be changed.

    Raised By

    By default, it is the creator of the RR. Multiple creators can be selected.

    Responsible Project

    Project to which the RR belongs.

    • If the current project is selected, this requirement is internal.
    • If another project of the tenant is selected, the requirement is submitted to external parties.

    The current project is selected by default.

    Recipient

    Owner who undertakes the RR.

    If multiple recipients are selected, data will be synchronized based on the recipients' processing speed.

    Expected Completion

    Expected completion time of the RR.

    Priority

    Priority of an RR, including Low, Medium, and High.

    The default value is Medium.

    Copy To

    Other members of the project team.

  4. Click Submit. The Raw Requirements page is displayed and "Request submitted successfully" is displayed in the upper right corner.

    • If you click Save as Draft, the RR list is displayed. The requirement status is --.
    • If you click Cancel, the creation of the RR is cancelled.

    The new requirement is displayed in the RR list, and the requirement state is Analyzing. If another project of the tenant is selected for Responsible Project, choose Other Projects to view the new RR.

    After an RR is created, the people selected for Raised By, Recipient, and Copy To will receive email and system message notifications. If not, set notifications or modify notification settings. For details, see Configuring Notifications.

Related Operations

You can perform the following operations on a new RR.

Table 2 Basic operations on an RR

Operation

Description

Modify title

Click next to an RR title to modify it.

Modify field

Click the target field value in the row of an RR to modify the value.

Create child requirement

Click in the Operation column of an RR to break it down into child requirements.

  • In the Break Down Subrequirements dialog box, click Add Subrequirement to create a child requirement. A maximum of 10 child requirements can be created at a time.
  • The project to which a child requirement belongs can be the current project or other projects of the tenant. To configure the project scope, choose Settings > Work > RR Downstream Projects.
  • You can break down work items quickly. See Configuring Common Fields in a Project for related field configuration.

    If Quickly split sub-work items is enabled, the corresponding number of child work items are created based on the number of options selected. A maximum of 10 child work items can be created.

    If the work item already has child work items, the function of quickly breaking down work items does not work.

    If a work item is configured with multiple fields for quickly breaking down work items, the child work items are broken down based on the first field in the field template.

Associate with child requirement

Click in the Operation column of an RR to associate it with child requirements.

Duplicate RR

Choose > Duplicate in the Operation column of an RR. The procedure for duplicating an RR is the same as that for creating an RR.

View RR association map

Choose > Association Map in the Operation column of an RR to view all data of its related items.

Copy link

You can copy the title, ID, current owner, status, and link of a requirement to the clipboard.

RRs of this project: Click Copy Link in the Operation column to copy the link.

RRs of other projects/IRs/USs: Click in the Operation column of an RR to copy the link.

Migrate RR

Choose > Migrate in the Operation column of an RR to migrate it to other projects.

  • Draft RRs cannot be migrated.
  • After the requirement is migrated to another project, the system automatically removes the tag of the RR and disassociates the RR from the associated work item.
  • After the migration, the RR will be re-executed. The system will automatically clear the actual workloads, retain only the fields of the same type as the original work item, and remove redundant fields.

Delete RR

Choose > Delete in the Operation column of an RR to delete it.

  • Only data that meets the following conditions can be deleted:
    • Draft data.
    • Data in the To Do state, whose proposing project is the current project.
    • Data in the Done state, whose responsible project is the current project.
  • If an RR of a proposing project is deleted, it is permanently deleted. If an RR of a responsible project is deleted, it is moved to the project's recycle bin.
  • RRs in the recycle bin can be restored or permanently deleted. After an RR is restored from the recycle bin, it restores to the original status.
