Setting Artifact Type in a module imported from REQIF file

0
Patti Jansma (21●2●3) | asked Sep 16 '13, 10:22 p.m.
When we import a REQIF file into DOORS NG 4.0.3, and created a view to show the Artifact Type of each artifact, we discovered that ALL the artifacts had the name of the module as their Artifact Type.  The values for Artifact Type should have been either Heading or Requirement but instead all had the module name.  Can someone tell us how to get the Artifact Type to be set properly upon Import?  Otherwise, we have to change them all manually.  Please advise.  Thanks.

Patti, did you ever get this figured out? I'm running into the same issue with REQIF files from DOORS. Changing them manually can only be done 50 at a time.

Somewhat, but not exactly.  The REQIF was exported from DOORS 9.5 into DOORS NG 4.0.3. Apparently, REQIF does not "capture" the artifact type from DOORS 9.5 since it deals with Objects, not Artifacts, so it doesn't pass it on. We have submitted a change request with IBM re. this since DOORS 9.5 knows  if an object is a Heading or not already.  So for right now, the manual setting of Artifact Type is necessary.  IBM suggested setting up an Object in DOORS 9.5 called Artifact Type, but all that does is move the problem back.  The value still needs to be allocated.  :-(

Hi,
I just tried the Use Case and it seems to work for me, where do you get the original reqIf exported ?
