Importing Requirements and Requirement Traceability

The Requirement Author can import requirements from a CSV file. If a new requirement is imported, VERA will set the default values for the following fields. These fields should not be included in the CSV file. This does not include customer specific configuration changes.

Existing Requirements can be modified by the CSV Data Import provided the requirement is in the correct status for field updates. VERA will enforce the Records Management Policy and prevent updates to fields controlled by status.
