Quick Intro to Requirements Authoring

Define a requirement in Author mode Use Author mode to define detailed requirements in a rich-text document view. Within the Requirements module, select Author in the title bar. In the requirements tree, select a folder and click + to add a requirement. Create a folder if needed. Enter the requirement details in the Add Requirement dialog box. Within the description you can use the text editor to format text and to add tables, images, and links. When you finish defining your high-level requirement, you will see it as a document in the right pane. Note that Author mode displays all the contents of a requirement as one document, but each child and sibling requirement is managed within a separate box. As you move your mouse between requirements, a dotted line is displayed showing which further actions you can take. To create a child requirement in the right pane, click Add Child below an existing requirement. To add a sibling, click Add Sibling below an existing requirement. For example, if you are in requirement 1 and you add a child, the new requirement will be labeled 1.1. If you add a sibling, it will be labeled 2. Click Save to save your changes. Alternatively, when you leave a requirement your changes are saved automatically.
