I've been asked to copy the requirements from one project to another and also the test cases, test scripts and test plans.

This is possible? How can be achieved? 

I've found that one way is to download the requirements to a file and from there import them. For RRC 4.0.1 is there another way?

 Thanks everyone for your Ideas, I'll try the RQM Copy Utility, is there something similar to copy requirements? 

And as far as linked objects I think we can do that by hand.

Thanks again for your advice.

In addition to Bas' answer (either using CSV or ReqIF), you can also use project templates to copy information from an existing project to create a new project:
Managing requirements project templates

But the suggestion to use either CSV or ReqIF is the most flexible.

Use copy utility to copy test cases, scripts, plans from one project area to another:

You can download this utility from the below link:

 Felipe,

If you plan on using the RQM Copy Utility as Rajat mentioned in the prior post, please review the usage page thoroughly before proceeding.
There are limitations in the area of linked assets:

CLM links
  • Does not allow for copying CLM links such as Requirement, Work Item, or Plan Item links. CLM linking is only supported in the OSLC QM API

 I've downloaded the tool but I haven't been able to run it. Where I'm having some issues is with the URL part for the projects since the name of the projects has some spaces and also a '; Is there a way where I can see how the name is on RQ or a alias to use it?


Regards,
Felipe.

Try this
https://<hostname>:<port>/qm/service/com.ibm.rqm.integration.service.IIntegrationService/projects

Replace hostname and port with your server info.
This would give you the alias name of your RQM project areas.

Best Regards
Rajat

Assume the way you mentioned in your post is using CSV files?
Another option is to use ReqIF files; in the CLM 4.0.1 InfoCenter see Importing and exporting ReqIF files

Hello,

I looking for a solution to copy requirements between project areas in DOORS Next / Rational Requirement Composer 5.0.
Is there now a way to do it?

If still not, is there already an enhancement request for it?

Thanks!
Christian
