The Maintenance Workspace
Enterprise Architect makes it easy to record and capture problems and issues as they arise, and document the solution and associated details.
The Maintenance window provides a quick method of viewing and modifying the changes, issues, defects and 'to do' items associated with a particular model element. You can include the maintenance items in the main RTF documentation and HTML produced by Enterprise Architect. The RTF Setup dialog has checkboxes to show or hide element maintenance items.
