How to export requirements according filter criteria?

Hello Forum,

how is it possible to export by Rational DOORS 9.6.0.1 only a part of the requirements, according filter criteria?

 

Example:
In Rational DOORS 9.6.0.1 I have a column "Priority", which is an Enumeration with possible 4 entries (Prio 1-4).
How can I export one time only the Prio 1, another time only Prio 2 & 3?

 

Thanks in advance for your advice and help!

Best regards
Markus

Most of the DOORS export functions export only filtered data (if filter is active).

So: create a filter selecting attribute Priority and then export. For the Priority 2&3 export you will need an advanced filter which combines two filtering rules.

Hello Pekka,

when I filter in Doors (e.g. Prio 1), then it works on screen, but when I use

File -> Export -> Document gneration -> Export ... -> Export

there appears a small windows which ask me "Changes made to the current view could be lost if you continue. Do you want to save the current view?"

and after the filter is away and I see all requirements again. The result is that in the word-Document I have again all requirements, not only the filtered one.

Kind regards

Markus

OK, you are using the Publishing Engine add-on (light version). As the complaint from DOORS tries to say, it works based on saved views. So you have to save the filtered view to use this mode of export.

Have you tried the older export in Microsoft Office menu branch, e.g. Word-export?

Hello Pekka,

thanks, you are right, after saving the view it works. So I have to create a lot of views.

 

I have tried also the old export in Microsoft Office menu (File -> Export -> Microsoft Office -> Word). Here it works also. I didn't use this way because I can only use the Layouts "Book" or "Table". How can I use my selfmade Layout (with RPE)?

 

Kind regards
