General Board / Re: Message to self in UML Class diagram

« on: November 09, 2022, 03:42:29 am »

Operation:
 
Name: Init
Parameters: object, ushort
Return type: Self
 -> Go to the code and include the code there

It will generate the code correctly

Sorry had issues pasting the class diagram, so included only 1 operation

Hi Frank

I will stay away from changing the template as Geert says, but if I understood you correctly you can show dependency to self in a class, add it to the Operation Return Type = > Self

« on: September 24, 2022, 01:44:28 am »

Hi Steve

If the Kanban diagram has the "Bind Kanban to Elemente.Status" on it should do tis automatically.
Go into the Kanban and change this settings.
Hope it helps.

General Board / BRD and SDD new releases

« on: March 20, 2022, 01:38:01 am »

March is a great month, besides what is happening in the world we have updated both of my eBooks:

UML-ERP Workshop at www.leanpub.com
Designing an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) System with the UML modeling tool, Enterprise Architect.

1-Writing a Business Requirement Document (BRD) for the Inventory module.
2-Writing a Software Design Document (SDD) a Data Driven Report Engine.

Anyone trying to develop a system within their organization has been faced with many competing demands. Demands come from those responsible for establishing the guidance for the organization, the industry standards that are designed to assist in establishing direction, the features provided by the available tool sets in this space, and those who are impacted by the direction as they attempt to do their daily work. I will teach you how I have implemented in different organizations how to write a BRD and an SDD.
There is no shortage of articles about the right or best way to create a BRD or an SDD, and there are lots of potential approaches, you can learn the concepts by completing inter-actives exercises with what UML-ERP Workshop offers you.

You can purchase the BRD or the SDD at Leanpub.com, or we have an offer to buy both as a bundle.

Happy reading guys.

Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / Re: import requirements with trace

« on: March 27, 2021, 01:20:33 am »

Hi

Like Geert is telling you, you are importing the elements.
You will have to link the requirements to the use case and UI.

Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / Re: Code generation does not generate activity diagrams

« on: June 09, 2020, 02:34:07 am »

Hi

This one is a little bit tricky, follow this link, it may help you.
The activity diagram has to have actions and it should be under the class.

I have been working in this for the last month and it takes time to work the first time.

file:///C:/Program%20Files%20(x86)/Sparx%20Systems/User%20Guide/modeling/operationsdetail.html

Will include a chapter on code generation in my new eBook soon:

General Board / Re: Adding an image to an requirement.

« on: June 09, 2020, 02:25:40 am »

Hi

Yes, it is possible.
Right-click and Linked Document
Copy and paste image to the Linked Document.
Have done this a lot, specially when you have to insert another word doc or excel spreadsheet.
It will come out in your documentation when you print them.

General Board / Just published a new eBook, this time a Software Design Document (SDD)

« on: June 07, 2020, 06:15:34 am »

Hi All

A technical eBook on how to create a Data Driven Report Engine in any web based application. The original engine was developed in Windows with a Fox Pro database as back-end. In this eBook we present all the classes, tables, indexes, and diagrams that any architect or developer can create following our UML design to develop a web based engine with SQL tables as back-end. The engine should work with any report writer in the market, we used R&R Report Writer which was afterwards named R&R Report Works®.

Uml Process / Re: Link between project requirements and use case diagrams

« on: April 18, 2020, 04:06:27 am »

Hi

The best way to do this, is to drag and drop the requirements into the Use Case when is open in the Use case Diagram.
It gets link right away.
So when you run the Documentation or your Requirement Relationship Matrix it will show linked.

I published an eBook to do all this and much more at Leanpub.com

General Board / Re: What really should go into the "name" field of requirement?

« on: August 16, 2019, 12:17:59 am »

I almost agree with every body here, but based on my experience have never used EA auto numbering, I have a Naming Convention that I have used over 15 years gathering requirements, here is an example how I have done this, more in my eBook.

RIM01.08.01 - Inventory Adjustment Reason
(R-Requirement + I-Inventory Module + M-Maintenance Section+ 01- first requirement in this section + 08-Requirement number 8 of the section + 01-sub-requirement)
