Associating a use case with an existing requirement

You must have "Update" permission to associate a use case with an existing requirement. See your Rational RequisitePro project administrator for appropriate permissions.

To associate a use case with an existing RequisitePro requirement from Rational XDE

1. Open an XDE model that is associated with a RequisitePro project.
2. In the Model Explorer or in the diagram window, select a use case that does not have an association with RequisitePro attributes or a document.
3. Right-click RequisitePro > Associate to RequisitePro. The Associate Requirement to Use Case dialog box opens.
4. From the Requirements of type list, select a requirement type for setting attributes.
5. At the Located in list, indicate whether you want to display all requirements (all locations) in the RequisitePro project or those in a single requirements document.

Note   If the requirement you select for the association is in a document, that document is automatically associated with the use case.

6. Select a requirement from the displayed list and click OK.

The text of the existing requirement is changed to the name of the use case. You can now assign attribute values to the requirement attributes.
