How to Convert a Requirement Line Item into a Requirements Specification from the Tree View

Here's how you convert a requirement line item into a requirements specification from the tree view.

Open an existing requirement which has requirement lines.

  1. Navigate to the Edit page.

  2. Select a requirement line item in the tree view.

  3. Click Convert to Specification from the Actions menu.

  4. In the new Create Requirements Specification dialog enter required fields.

  5. Click OK and stay on the same page with the parent specification.

    The child specification is created and saved.
  6. Click Save on the parent specification, which also copies along the sub-structure.

    Note: If you don't click Save and cancel out of it, though the child specification is created, it doesn't appear in the hierarchy of the parent specification. You must run a search to find the child specification.
