How to export links (relationships) to CSV?
« on: March 09, 2012, 06:48:35 am »
---------------------
UPDATE:
Because one problem has been solved, so I changed the subject (the previous one was: "How to mark a different sources of requirements?")
---------------------

Hello
I need some help in two problems:

1.
I need information about source of each req (ex. Req1 comes from meeting, Req2 comes from docA, Req3 comes from docB, ect.). Now, I just define sources as a authors (but I'm loosing more detailed information: who told that at the meeting). Then I need to export requirements to csv (I know how to do that but I need also information about sources - I want to filter a req by source). I would like the sources to be a dictionary (I wouldn't like to type them every time - so keywords is not a good idea).

2.
The next problem: when I export requirements to csv I'm loosing information about composition. I need to know in CSV which req is connected another one.

EA:9.2

Best regards:)

OK - I think that I coped with problem no1 - I'm using tagged values.
But still there is problem number 2 - any suggestions?

what about exporting relationship matrix, where the package with the requirements is the source and the target?

Unfortunately doing in that way I don't get the information from the problem no.1
I need in one record (row in CSV) information:
- number
- name
- type
- author
- source (tagged value)
- link [here is the problem - all above I have]

Create your own RTF template with a definition like this:

{Element.Name}, {Element.Type}.... [highlight]connector>[/highlight]{Element.Name}[highlight]<connector[/highlight]

Then, generate saving it as ".csv" instead of ".rtf".

The example isn't perfect, it's only an idea... but it works if you do it well!

Regards,

Luis.
