Hi rafnews,
Enterprise Architect is based on UML 2.1 notation. Definitions of Requirements and Features from UML are directly applied in EA.
Requirements are divided into: Customers Needs, Features, Functional Req, and Non-functional Reqs.
Customers Needs - what client needs from the product
Features - what product offers, corresponding to needs

i had the same understandings but i was a little bit confused when i saw the example model for the first time.
