   I have a test suite and test case document which I want to link to a existing Test plan in RQM.

How to add the steps in RQM?

I included the below and didn't work

testplan.XLSArtifactID=urn:com.ibm.rqm:testplan:164
testplan.XLSLink=testsuite

Hi Aparna,

I've worked with existing test cases in the Excel Importer.  This is an example of how to update an existing test case.  You could use something similar for a test plan.

The following is the line in the .cfg file.
testcase.XLSArtifactID="urn:com.ibm.rqm:testcase:" & A
In the Excel file column A has the ID of the test case.
Example Excel Test Case file

I hope this helps
