Can DOORS Next Gen automatically detects Term in requirement description and link them to the glossary?

Hi,

very simple use case, I'm migrating an existing project from Excel to DOORS Next Gen.
I create my glossary with artefacts of type "Term".
I import my 4000 requirements.
That's good.

Now, I would like to parse these requirements to link part of their description to the appropriate term.
For example, I have a Term artefact to define the "AMR" acronym. How can I do to make sure that every time I encounter "AMR" in a requirement description, it is linked with a "Term Referenced From" link?

This can't be a manual process as it will be very long and there will be many errors.

Is it possible in DOORS Next Gen? Or should I submit a new feature request?

Cheers,
Nico

You can add your voice to this enhancement request:
37806: Provide automatic glossary term association in textual artifacts

If you want to do this yourself ...I imagine a JavaScript extension could be written that enables the user to do this for the current artifact (including modules).  The extension widget would be invoked from the mini-dashboard in the DOORS NG user interface.

Hi Daniel,
Thank you for your answer.
I wanted to avoid the JavaScript extension... but I might have to do so waiting for the enhancement request implementation.

Cheers,

Nico

It's now 2020... I wonder if we have a solution to this yet?
