Inclusion of Relationship Matrix in documents

[Davide]

Hi all,
        I’ve read the “Working with the RTF Generator” but I didn’t find the way to include any “Relationship Matrix” into such an automated generated RTF document.  :-/
Is it possible to include a relationship matrix into the document? If yes, how?

Thanks in advance,
Davide

Yes, you can... you should use "document artifact" allowing you to link a rtf document to your project. The linked rtf document linked is then inserted in the global rtf project document... so you can generate with a particula template the requirements traceability matrix, link it to a document artifact and the generate the project document...
I hope it was useful...

Can you explain in more detail how you have made this work for a relationship matrix ?  As far as I can see they cannot be included in the rtf documentation (7.0 818)  
thanks

First step... use template below to include in your project, rtf documents... you will see the tag "model document"... this tag is used to import rtf documents linked to artifact element....This template is the same template supplied by EA called {requirements template} plus the tag model document

package >
{Pkg.Name}
{Pkg.Notes}

diagram >
{Diagram.DiagramImg}
Figure: {Diagram.Name}
< diagram

element >
{Element.Name}
{Element.Notes}
model document >
< model document
child elements >
< child elements
< element
child packages >
< child packages
< package

Second step... create in a package of your project an artifact element... you will find explanation about using the EA Help Contents...Cerca...Create Artifact Document

Third and last step... link your rtf document to artifact document... and apply template supplied!!!!!

Thank you, this makes sense... apart from one thing, how does this get the equivalent of what is displayed from the View/Relationship matrix menu option into an rtf document ?

I forgot to give you the template to generate the traceability matrix...

Here is...
Using the tag connector->source and connector->target arranged in a table manner this template write the traceability matrix in a table form...for the table refer to EAexample {requirements template}

By

package >
package element >
requirement >
< requirement
< package element
element >
requirement >
< requirement
connector >
source >
element >
{Element.Name}
< element
< source      
target >
element >
{Element.Name}
< element
< target
< connector
child elements >
< child elements
< element
child packages >
< child packages
< package
