Requirements Approvals are Requirements Manager items that facilitate and track the review and approval of a specific version (snapshot) of a Dimensions RM requirements document. A new Requirements Approval is created for each successive version of the Dimensions RM requirements document that is submitted for approval.
The roles and fields referenced in this procedure are based upon the default out-of-box configuration. The specifics of your implementation may differ.
To create a Requirements Approval:
Log in as a user with the Business Analyst role.
Click Actions and select New Requirements Approval from the resulting menu. The Create New Requirements Approval dialog appears.
Complete the fields as needed; Required fields are marked with an asterisk (*) and the name is shown in red.
The following list describes some of the fields included in the default configuration:
Search for and select an ALM Project: Specify the project that the requirements approval will belong to.
Select a Requirements Document to associate with this Requirements Approval: Select the desired requirements document from the list. Once you have made a selection here, the next field is populated with the available versions (snapshots) of the requirements document.
If the Requirements Approval is for an existing version of the Requirements Document, select it here: Select the desired version of the requirements document.
To create a new version of the Requirements Document, change the version name here: Specify a unique name for the new version.
Business Analyst: Specify the user who will fill the Business Analyst role for this Requirements Approval.
This may have been set at the project level.
Click OK.
